I have been to panlaan a number of times since it's arrival on the island.
I have followed all of it's transitions. But now there is a new addition on the floor.
I brought my date there on a Wednesday night. We sat at the bar and enjoyed a glass of wine before moving to couch outside. We then moved to a corner table and enjoyed another glass of wine while ordering our meals.
Quality has always been excellent for as long as I have been there but what I really enjoyed was listening to my partners comments about the service of the staff.
The new floor manager, Mark, was extremely professional and courteous and entertaining for such a busy night. He managed to make my partner feel warmly welcomed and him and I made an instant connection as we discovered we were both originally from Canada.
My partner loved her meal, the wine, and the ambiance of the location. And when things quieted down Mark made a special gesture to join us for some more conversation prior to our departure.
It was a great night!
