Not a party friendly place.

I had to deliver baloons for a couple who were having a baby shower lunch at the Grand Africa Cafe. We were asked to deliver the two bobo baloons with 4 sml baloons attached to it. On placing the baloons at the table I was approached by someone that said to be in charge of the tables. He said that they do not allow baloons to be placed next to the table. I told him that two weeks ago I delivered 2 big bunches of baloons and it was allowed. He says they changed their rules since. A few mins later I was approached my 2 other employees and (one claiming to be a manageress) and said that they only allow 1 baloon. It is crazy to have just 1 balloon. They reason was that other guests might complain. Bull****. Why would guests complain when the baloons added some beauty to the dirty scruffy table outside. The guest had spent R750 on the baloon gift. I suggested the guest cancel their reservation and go to another restaurant in the waterfront. Eventually they allowed the baloons to remain at the table. Bad attitude and bad service. Go on chase your locals. Not many foreign tourists will be arriving any time soon. Please don't plan yr parties at this place before confirming anything in writing.
