Yet another one bites the dust.....
I loved Cova for its yummy salads, but didn't go there for a couple of months...
Then, the next thing I know, I go to meet some friends for dinner at TGIF Gardens and I suddenly realise: "Hey, isn't this located exactly where Cova used to be??"
Boo hoo. It's gone!!
(Here is my original review... Not that it matters anymore, but just for the record... *sigh*)

I liked the place too... but as I recall they never did have an online presence like website or facebook page. I am not sure what they were doing in the Marketing Department (or whether they even bothered to do marketing at all)... but I really didn't see them anywhere. So if people can't find you or don't know about you...
ReplyDelete... sad... F&B is such a tough industry.
to Frat:
ReplyDeleteYeah man. F&B is a really tough industry. :(
(So many restaurants with good food+concept have failed because of other reasons....)
Yup.. remember that they did promotion on beer buffet that I absolutely love.. despite never been there once!! hahahaha..
ReplyDeletewhat to do? if they can't even sustain their operational cost, better off close down rather than incur more loss right???
i have not even eaten here!
ReplyDeleteto thule aka leo:
ReplyDeleteHaha...
How can you love it so much but have never gone there before??
to ciki:
We must make a list and check it twice and then start going to new restaurants to makan quickly! :(
i've read some good reviews about this place when the gardens first opened its door. didn't get a chance to try...but ok la, i should be optimistic and see what's going to occupy this space. hokkien mee! *fingers crossed* haha!
ReplyDeleteI heard good stuffs abt their cakes!
ReplyDeleteAnd i knw for sure they engaged bloggers before for food review (No i want one of them) but that;s how i read abt it.
Guess promo/mktg should be an ongoin thing not jsut one off.
Havin said tht, some plc w less appealin grub survives. So my take is, it's prob the usual case of owners/partners dispute or its financial.
to Nic(KHKL):
ReplyDeleteSo far, now it's just TGIF that's taken over Cova's old spot but I'm with you! I totally wish it was BKT instead....
*fingers crossed too*
to thenomadGourmand:
I guess we'll never know for sure...
*sigh* All thats sure is that now there is one less place in KL for nice salads and cakes! :(
