Sure looks good to me…

I saw Huai Bin‘s photograph on Facebook of the pork burger that he had, bacon and all, and it sure looked good to me. I certainly wasted no time and made a beeline to the place the very next day…

I did not like what I had the first time I dropped by here but the smoked duck and mango slices appetiser that I had the second time around was pretty good.

The bacon deluxe burger certainly looked great…

…but at RM19.90, I thought that was somewhat a way bit too pricey. As for the taste, it was quite all right but it failed to sweep me off my feet. Somehow I could hardly taste the bacon and I was not too sure whether the patty was pork or beef. It did not have the fragrance and taste of the latter so I guessed it was the former even though the colour would make you think otherwise…plus it was kind of dry or perhaps I should just say, it was not exactly as juicy as I would have liked it.

Well, if it’s burger that you want, I would think this would be a better place – I love their cheese burger (RM14.90) which would come with an egg and also their spicy grilled chicken burger (RM12.90) and their HUGE double cheese burger is only RM16.90, much cheaper than this one here.

My missus had this sambal sotong rice (RM10.90)…

She liked it a lot and my daughter said it was nice too. I tried a bit and I thought what I had here was nicer (and cheaper too) and it could do with a little bit less msg.

Melissa had their mushroom chicken chop (RM16.90)…

…and the moment it was served, I could see the disappointment in her eyes. If I’m not wrong, I think she had expected fresh mushrooms like those she used to get in New Zealand and not these canned ones which she does not fancy too much actually. I tried a bit and thought that it tasted Chinese – not like a western dish. Ah well! They did claim to be a fusion cafe so one would not be able to argue with that.

All things considered, the place was all right and the food was edible, to say the least, but at those prices, chances are, given a choice, we would be a lot more likely to head elsewhere.
