Liza Wang Denies Accusations That She Used Her Connections To Jump Queue At Lady M Café In Hongkong

According to Mr Hong, he had been waiting in line for 45 minutes when he heard a commotion at the front of the queue.

“Ah Jie (Liza) was with a female friend. I was standing at the back but occasionally I would look inside the store. I saw two people leaving, and then two people entered. Initially, I thought that [Liza and her friend] had waited for their turn, but later, I heard a man complaining to the manager. The gist of the conversation was about how [Liza] could just walk in without queueing. The part I heard most clearly was the manager saying that Liza ‘is the boss’ friend’,” said Mr Hong, adding that Lady M does not accept reservations.

To verify this, Apple Daily called the café to make a reservation and were told that they only take walk-ins.

When asked about how the other customers reacted when they saw the actress, Mr Hong said that he heard a man saying: “Wow! Ah Jie!”. However, the other diners were indifferent to her presence.

He also said that Liza was “calm” the whole time and left after an hour.

Last night, Liza was asked about what happened during a live broadcast for a show in Tseung Kwan O.

She explained she was shopping with her friend at Harbour City on Saturday when she remembered that there was a Lady M outlet there. It so happened that her friend wanted to have cake so she called the boss of Lady M, who is her good friend.

She added that she too waited in line, but was in another queue.

"We waited there for a while [before we were seated]. There were two lines, one for dine in, the other for pick-ups. I was waiting in the other line and only went in when there was a table. I don’t think it’s a big deal,” she said.

Her reply sparked a discussion among netizens, some of whom slammed Liza for having “weak morals” 'cos she "went by the back door”. (Drama, much?).

There were also those who felt it was not a big deal at all.

"[Liza] is not the only privileged person in Hongkong. In such private organisations, the boss can do whatever he wants. When they open a store, friends come before making money. You don’t have to patronise them if you don't like it," wrote one netizen.
