Mom Violy and Carmina’s dining experience at Dean & DeLuca

  Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly. We know Paella Negra takes a long time to prepare, which is why Mom Violy had requested it to be cooked beforehand. She wanted it as her main meal, but because of the mix-up and feeling hungry, she took a piece of Carmina’s Turkey Club Sandwich and asked for the bacon on the side.

Self Service or With Assistance at New York Laundry

 


Not many of us have a big washing machine to wash our comforters. 

Carmina decided to bring it to a laundry place and found New York Laundry.

Entering inside wearing a face mask Carmina approaches the employee on duty asking whether she can leave her comforter to be washed with assistance. I was told there is an additional charge of PHP 100.00 ($1.72) to have it done.

The employee from New York Laundry asked if I had any detergent with me and said yes. Letting them know I didn't want any softener because I am allergic to it.

They will look at the size of the laundry to see which washing machine it will fit with different price range. Since my comforter was a king size it had it inside a bigger washing machine for PHP 220.00 ($3.79) and the dryer will cost additional PHP 168.00 ($2.90).


Carmina was told it will be ready at 3:00 PM. 

Upon picking it up is when you'll be asked to make a payment in cash best to pay full amount because they don't have change for large bills.

NOTE:

Carmina is not selling or advertising for New York Laundry just something I need to have washed.
