Food Review - Roma Pizza

I am not a pizza person. The overswhelming taste of cheese sometimes make me dizzy and high. Hence, I would usually avoid having pizza especially those with cheese. However, this time around I made it an exception since I am having lunch with someone whom I hardly meet nowadays due to work commitment. Sorry Fadzillah, sibuk skit lah sekarang.

Hence, I wanted to eat at somewhere is not that crowded and where we can talk and do some catching up. I suggested this place located in Avenue K called Roma Pizza.

Roma Pizza is a small outlet but the ambiance is very nice and comfy. Not too many tables located in the pizza place and they have more outside the place. They also have this bar stool like table which create a casual scenario.

What special about this place is the pizza is served on a plank. Very unique which you don't really find in other pizza place. Other places usually served on a pizza pan - biasa je lah.

I love the BBQ Chicken Wing here. The dip is also nice, the normal chilli sauce with added spices and herbs. Awesome!

Ambiance - 3.5 - love how they decorate this place, very suitable if you are having lunch with friends

Location - 3 - Strategic!! Just next to KLCC LRT station.
Taste - 3.5 - prefer the pizza here, very crispy and

Service - 2.5 - lembab skit ler, pastu mcm tak pay attention jer....

Price - 3.0 - for this kind of food, I don't mind paying....

Try this place. You won't regret it!!!

Food Review - Harrods KLCC

I always love Harrods. Back when I was younger and still enjoying my dad's entitlement working with MAS, we went to London quite frequent. Apart from visiting Asda, Queen Anne and other locations, Harrods was another venue which is a must to visit.

So, when I heard Harrods KLCC is opening, I was very excited. I miss all the trips we used to have and having to have one store which I adore right beneath where I work is something I really look forward to.

However, I was quite dissapointed. The variety of products were very limited and it looked like a bakery rather than a real Harrods. What do I expect? If I want a real Harrods, it should be as big as Suria KLCC kan?

Anyway, one day we went to have our lunch there. Never felt so English before. Again, the menu was very limited and not really suit the Asian taste. I guess they really bringing the authentic Harrods to Malaysia.

I had the roaster chicken while a friend of mine had this beef steak with this custard thingy, entah apa namanyer, forgot lah.

The review :

Ambiance - 3 - not too bad, overlooking the KLCC water fountain
Location - 3 - If I am already in KLCC, convenient lah.

Taste - 2.5 - dasar perut melayu so not really to my liking
Service - 3 - very polite and courteous, however, the food was a bit slow and I was really starving!
Price - 2.0 - mahal siut. Meals for 3 person was RM160!

I will only come here again if someone else is paying. Otherwise, makan kat food court jer ler.

Food Review - Delicious Cafe, Jalan Pinang

One of my workmate just got promoted and she had booked our time to give us a treat over lunch at this place near KLCC called Delicious Cafe. The exact location is below the MARC apartment at Jalan Pinang. (picture courtesy of googleimage)

I wasn't sure whether I could make it as I was tied up with another engagement however, since Salwa really wanted for us to be there, I still proceed to the venue and was the last one to arrive.

Maryam was kind enough to pre-order for me, I just told her order me anything which resembles beef steak and she choose this dish which was delicious!

They also served this appertizer some sort like cracker dipped in this patte made from liver. I tried it once and did not really enjoyed it. For the second try, I had only the cracker.

The girls ordered 2 type of dessert, one this chocolate brownie with ice cream on top and another one is the bread pudding. They said it's delicious!

Now the review...

Ambiance - 3 -oklah, the typical cafe environment, like Dome, Starbuck etc....
Taste - 2.5 - Only the steak caught my attention. The rest, so and so lah

Location - 3 - high traffic area and walking from KLCC is not that far but when you combined hot weather and walking, what is near seems to be very far

Service - 2.5 - when I wanted to order drinks, the first 4 choices I made were not available. So, I had to ask them, what do they have, and end up ordering Coke.

Price - 2.5 - took a peak at the bill and quite pricey.

Despite the good food which I was told off, I think this place is not my cup of tea. Nevertheless, thanks Salwa for the treat!

Food Review - Impiana KLCC

Last Friday, I had a dinner outing with my Sports team mate, the Kryptonites. This dinner was to celebrate the winning money(though we got 4th place, we still got away with some cash). The kapitan decided to invite just those who have contributed which I felt was a fair reqiuest.
We also invited Ms MC, though she has left the company but when she was still around, she contributed alot for the team. She was also the head cheerleader during her tenure in this company.

I was still on diet so this is the only food I had. Forgot to take photo of the steam vege I had as well.

The hotel was of course decorated in a very Christmasy environment which was predictable. It's the season of the year kan?

The guys enjoying the food. Though we did not win much, but there were not many of us, so we still got to celebrate the money in style

Now the review...
Overall, the food was ok. The choices however, were quite limited compared to other buffet spread in KL. However, I felt it's was worth the price we paid.
So, how many points did they earned?
Taste - 3.5, the laksa, I was told was not that good(tak rasa pun). But the butter prawn was the best!
Location - 3 - ok if you are in the area already, but if you are coming from elsewhere, the traffic may kill you!
Service - 4.5 - excellent service, very satisfied
Price - 3 .5 - for that kind of spread, ok kot?

I am still in the midst of transferring the food review to this blog, hopefully can complete by end of this week...

Have a good Monday everyone!!!

Food Review - Bora Ombak

This review is in conjuction with the buka puasa event organised by Jimmy for the division.

The location is chosen based on:

1. Recommendation in the internet
2. We wanted to go out from KLCC
3. But not too far from KLCC

Nevertheless, the traffic was really bad, we arrived at Ampang Point at 5.30pm to do some Raya shopping(shopping lagik!!!) and then left for Bora Ombak at 6.30pm. We arrived there at 6.55pm despite the place is within walking distance from Ampang Point. And the rain makes the jem ever worse. Now, the review :

Ambiance - 4.5 - I love it so much, so cosy though Cik Puan Ambang commented lampu malap sangat so tak puas nak makan...
Taste - 3.5 - ok lah, not bad and first time I had bakso. Pedaslah!
Location - 2.5 - never like this area, possibility of me getting lost is very high
Service - 3 - not so bad, they cleared the table quite fast.
Price - 2 - pricey compared to the spread offered. RM55++, tak berbaloilah.

And we were supposed to present Ms TS birthday, but me, a mangkok person , left the gift on my office table. So, tengokler gambo nyer sini dulu, and lurza will get the gift to you tomorrow.

All and all, we had fun, laughters were non stop. Compensate lah with the not so impressive food.
