Kesington restaurant, Kota Laksamana

This restaurant was newly open last year which has now has increased number of patrons through the week competing against wok and pan for the western food market in Melaka. My first visit there was suprisingly pleasant, manager was attentive and service was quick. Food had presentation then.

As the newcomer became more establish you would have noticed improvement in service and so, but not so for this restaurant. Waiters are overworked with only 3 or 4 servicing the whole restaurant which has 3 different areas. My last visit there was horrible. I didn't even have my dinner by 9.30pm.

I was there with my bf and my sister on a weekend for dinner. We arrived there around 7.30pm. Place our orders- mushroom soup,mussels,seafood pasta,lamb rack and chicken veronique. Drinks was serve after numerous reminders after the starters... Mushroom soup arrive first- too salty. Then next mussels- becoming worst..., then my bf's mains arrived lamb rack- he said was OK. Tick tock tick tock... after my bf has finished his plate of dinner then my sister's pasta arrived- creamy but too sweet. Then the waiting game began, I reminded the waiter about 4 times- yes! on the way... yes 5 more minutes. The next table was fed up with the service too, mains were serve to only 1 guest. Then I had observed that, other tables were served before mine! By 9.30 pm i still didn't have my dinner yet! My sister was almost done with hers, and I had enough of waiting... I went to the opposite hawker stall and bought my dinner. Asked my bf to cancel the order and pay the bill. The bill was ask around 10 minutes previously and the BF got fed up and went to pay at the counter. 

The food in this establishment is not bad but the service deserves a ZERO. A failing establishment is the one that leaves the customer in hunger and anger. I would never come here again.

my verdict: 2/10 (2 for previous better experience) my 2 cents if the restaurant cant cope with the number of customers then do not put out extra tables!
Location: Kesington restaurant, taman kota laksaman near bei zhan ...very obvious from the main road.

Restoran Woo Ng Kee, Taman Ehsan, Kepong

My birthday was awhile ago... and my family celebrated it at our family favourite restaurant. Cheap, tasty and fast service. It serves duck and many more delectable dishes...my usual favourites are siew ngap, ginger steam fish and crabs!

 Siew ngap... juicy and crispy outer skin serve with plum sauce
 Sweet and sour crab
 Ginger steam fish
 Yummy mantao
Butter crabs

Dining here with a family of 6 usually cost us around RM 100 if we ordered prawns... Usual meal with fish cost us around RM70 plus which is quite a good price given in KL. Food wise its yummy plus its always crowded hence if you are there on weekends and during dinner time you would have to wait for a bit .

Location: Taman Ehsan, behind BHP petrol station... my way of going is .... turn to taman ehsan.... follow the road keeep going then reach a roundabout take left then you see the BHP its at the back...

Sushi Kyou Bukit Beruang

A new sushi place has just open recently at Bukit Beruang. Just had a chance to stop by and try over the weekend. It its located at the shoplots on the left opposite Petronas Bukit Beruang. The interior deco is simple and they have very limited selection of food on their menu ranging from maki, udon,bento set, temaki, gunkan and so on... Well I ordered wakame udon, some sushis...







My verdict: 5/10 not the best sushi shop in town. wa zen still on top! they have service tax 10% !%S!%S!!! and the sushi slices were tad too thin and tasteless... its pinkish not the bring orangy colour that I usually have.
