If you are staying at the Holiday Inn Waterfront in Sydney, Nova Scotia the Salt Spray is one of the on-site restaurants.
My wife and I stayed at the hotel and had breakfast at Salt Spray today. The food was good but the service was horrible. Our server Taylor seemed to be more concerned with staying clean and hanging out in the back then waiting on customers!. She never asked if we needed anything or if our meal was OK. We had to ask her for cream and orders of toast. My wife had to get up and get our own cutlery.
The shinging light was the other server Carol.
She is an sweet older lady who was running circles around the other staff. She never stopped and even cleared our dishes and we were not in her section. We ended up giving Taylor's tip to Carol, who really deserved it.
If I go back to Salt Spray I will insist on sitting in Carol's section. She is a delight and a real asset to that restaurant. I hope her boss knows how great Carol is to all her customers. read more
