With all due respect, you live & work in Asia. Fresh Bites will never appear in Asia.

However - it IS/has been appearing in the US & is expanding - and I've been vocal since the beginning against it. If you lived over here you'd be shooting bullets w/ the rest of us.

First, let's get this out of the way - who gives two patooties if a property has a restaurant when someone is talking room service.

The POINT of ROOM SERVICE is that the food gets delivered to YOU IN YOUR ROOM - usually at an inflated cost, and with real dishes & silverware, either in a cart left in your room or on a tray left in your room.

It doesn't mean (which is the FRESH BITES model) that we will now deliver the 'same meal at the same cost as real room service' in plastic containers w/ plastic silverware in a freeking plastic bag w/ delivery charge etc or you can pick up same from the ground floor - aka, you are literally paying the same prices for lesser offerings & service.

While I don't do room service on an every day basis I do order room service when at full service hotels depending on schedule. I want & expect TRUE room service delivered to my room w/ proper utentsils, plates & food heated in proper containers.

I put properties that have gone w/ Fresh Bites on my 'no stay' list.

Cheers
