Tony Roma

Who doesn't love a tasty, scrumptious and finger-licking good western dish? Well, Tony Roma definitely serves really delicious and good looking dishes!


Bread Sticks. Even the starters tasted soooooo good...somehow! AHHA


Prawn Salad.
THIS. WAS. #FOODPORN. The first bite of the big, fresh prawns coated with warm, spicy sauce. SO fresh and... wow. But I thought it tasted better if the sauce was cold. It would have a cold and spicy feeling. Yums!


Grilled Roasted Chicken and Fire Roasted salad.
The sauce in the small little cup was sooooooo good. This salad must be paired with that particular salad sauce. I'm not quite sure what are the 2 square pieces, but i'm guessing it's parmesan crisp or something like that. Tasted really good.

Strawberry Walnut Salad. RM19.90
Fresh Sliced strawberries with candied walnuts and feta cheese on fresh greens with strawberry vinaigrette dressing
Oh Mon Dieu! Super strong smell of the sweet strawberry sauce. A really nice twist yet "healthy" and delicious salad!!

Fish and Chips.
Many people won't go for this option. However, the breaded fried fish was SO tasty. Different type of sauces for you to dip your fish/fries in. Fries were perfectly seasoned (at least for me) less salt, healthy and tasty!

Steakhouse burger RM27.90
A grilled pure beef burger topped with demi-glace creamy Havarti cheese and rosemary beef bacon
My sister LOVES this. She say it's her favorite.


Beef Ribs and BBQ quarter chicken.
The sauce is very sweet. It goes really well with the ribs. The layer of fat and meat from the ribs melts in your mouth #foodgasm


Same dish as the above one except with different sides.

Shrimp pasta.
The prawn is big and so sweet!!! This dish tasted so light and it doesn't make it "jelat" (sick of it)

Birthday Lava.
We celebrated my cousin's 23rd birthday and they gave her a complimentary birthday cake!
The hot moist cake and the cold ice cream below was.....*speechless* 
Tasted SO SO good.

The bill.
We had 10 people. For this price and that kind of dishes?? It satisfied everyone!


Overall, 9/10

Till then, have a great week!

Canton-i

OK, you might not know this about me but: I actually do not really fancy Chinese food. Except, maybe, chicken rice? I think my taste buds have been strongly influenced by Western or Japanese cuisine. However, there ARE some Chinese restaurants that I do enjoy. E.g. Canton-I/Dragon-I

Iced Jasmine Tea with Lemon Grass (RM11)
It looked & sounded really good. Tried it. Not too bad. QUITE pricey for tea and a few strands of lemon grass eh? 

Honey BBQ Chicken and BBQ pork (RM16)
The reason why I ordered this is because of the chicken wings. Spotted it? Exactly. On the menu, this dish looked so good with the wings. Disappointed but I like their rice and gravy! So yums!!

BBQ pork and duck (RM15.90)
Their BBQ pork is so scrumptious. I guess some may criticize about the pricing and portion of this dish. The meat is not too fatty; just right.

Minced pork Chee Cheong Fun
It tasted alright. Nothing much to say about this dish. Not worth it at all.

Scallop and prawn fried rich (RM18)
Most expensive dish of them all. It tasted really nice and the fragrance of this dish is WOW. However, portion is a little bit small I guess. The few pieces of scallop tasted nice, chewy.



Overall, 7/10
I think Dragon-I (same company as Canton-I) has better varieties. Although they are bought under the same company, Dragon-I somehow serves better food.

Till then,
have a great week guys!

cheers

Ikea

The first time I tasted meatballs from Ikea, I knew I was going to be hooked on it....FOREVER! Ikea is not only famous for its meatballs served with delicious gravy and jam, but they do have other pretty decent food here.
Going to Ikea during the weekends (especially after 6pm) is the worst time to go. Crowd is crazy, line is long...BUT, surprising the line moves pretty fast. First impression of this place? Military style. You line up, order your food, they serve you as quickly as possible. 
*oh p.s. This pictures are taken with the Blackberry 9320's 3.2mp :)

Chicken Thigh with mash potato and carrots. (RM10.90)
Quite delicious. I love their mash potato!! So good. 


I've no idea what those 2 'patties' are. But they tasted like leftover potatoes and they mashed it up with other stuff. Quite hard to swallow that actually. The sauce went quite well with the salmon. However, sometimes the salmon tastes a bit odd (it depends). 


This is the kid's pasta! Quite worth it. The last Sunday when i tried, they had a special for the kids meal. RM6.90 for the pasta, yogurt and a packet drink. SUPER worth it. 

Popiah (Fried Spring Roll) RM0.99/piece. I loved it although some might not like this as it is left on the open tray for... a really long time. Tasty!

Almond cake. Did not like it. Too sweet. Weird.

Mushroom soup.
I love how chunky the soup is. So much wild mushrooms. Delicious when is served hot. You can also purchase a small bun (RM1) to go with the soup. Fab.

Last but not least, MEATBALLS. 
15/pieces = RM14
20/pieces = RM17
I love love love love loveeeeee their meatballs. The gravy and the jam? wow! Goes so well with the meatballs. It's a #musttry if you visit this place!

Overall, 8.5/10
The reason why I would keep coming back here it's because of their affordable yet delicious dishes. So if you haven't try this yet....GO AND TRY. :)

have a great weekend ya'll!
