Pay WHATEVER Price You Want to Pay for Food at The Box Office in Phnom Penh

Post by General Mackevili »

For 1 week only. :popcorn:

"OK, the people (?) have spoken.. and we've decided to listen...

Seems that while the cost of living is increasing for everyone some people feel that we are charging too much for food... ok, we get it - while we don't skimp on portions of the quality of ingredients - if your culunary experiences and budget is limited to mainly street food and instant noodles we could be seen as expensive...

So (in what may be the dumbest thing we have ever done) next week is ππ€π˜ 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 π˜πŽπ” 𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓 week.

The concept is simple - You come in. You order what you want. You eat - and when we present you with the bill you pay what you want.

That's it. So simple.

The week long special menu has some suggested minimum prices, but they are only suggestions - you simply pay what you think the meal was worth. Nothing more. nothing less.

Offer runs Monday 27th Feb to March 3rd only.
Offer is available on the selected menu from 12pm to 7pm only.
Offer is subject to a maximum of one light bite and one meal π™₯π™šπ™§ π™₯π™šπ™§π™¨π™€π™£ per day.
Offer applies to advertised menu items only.
Offer applies to dine in only.
Offer excludes drinks.

That's it. Your move."

Good on them.
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

Wow, would be extremely nice if people didn't abuse this and they were able to do a once a month weekend sort of event after this.

I'm guessing their normal prices aren't but 3 or 4 dollars more than these minimums? The Box Office is by the Vine yeah?
