在經濟及金錢掛帥、汰弱留強制度下的香港社會，長者常誤被冠以社會負累一族，每每所倡之政策，總是注目在提供福利、免費遊樂及醫療。同時，僱主們並不大願意僱用長者，就算本來有工作的亦要被迫退下來，沒空間讓長者繼續發揮所長。然而，政府政策中亦未為長者提供退休、就業輔導或再培訓等服務。 I went to this place tonight with mui. I didn't know the reason to visit this restaurant before i arrived. That's the place to employ the elderly. The boss is willing to employ them and support them to live in their own dignity. I do feel glad that someone is willing to provide an opportunity to the elderly. It seems that we highly appreciate to work fast and efficiency coz' our society is very competitive, we can't afford to lose and waste our time. Every minutes and money counts so that we ask for value all the time. We forgot that there are some people who are less competitive (e.g. inability, elderly) may need our help. That's why I feel happy to know that this place supports the Senior Employment Scheme. The elderly can keep on working and earn for their living. I can take a lovely french cuisine there and support the elderly as well. All waiters provide a nice and friendly service after the training. (Maybe some people may think that the boss uses the elderly as a gimmick to attract ppl ... if u think like that, i feel shame on you ! As you always measure the life in terms of $$$, 'freaking' hell.)
The food is not bad and the place is tidy with a friendly atmosphere. Loving' it :D
* hope mui could feel better after the dinner, that's the best i can do .. chat chat and treat her :D
