What do We Like about Marco, One Utama? -Lunch sets which were value for money
I had a very satisfying meal at Marco. The food is tasty, and the service is prompt and impressive. It kind of feels like having fine dining cuisine, but not as ‘frilly’ and at a much more affordable price.
Me? I love burger.
But I think it does deserve a visit if you are a fan of ramen.
Verdict: I’m glad that we’ve finally tried this Tokyo style ramen and definitely a contented ramen experience. We will be back!
Kuro Musashi Ramen - MYR 27+ (6% GST = MYR 28.60 nett).
The rib eye with truffled butter sauce in Ante is the star, tastes bit salty with the gravy and goes very well with the pork steak. Like it!
它家的『香烤豬扒』份量十足、魅力足以讓你神魂顛倒,烤香後的豬扒口感鮮嫩多汁,好吃到讓你吮手指,超讚得嘞~😍!
Ante, located beside Nandos, (2 shops beside Nandos to be exact) is a non-halal restaurant that serves premier pork steaks in One Utama. Although the meals displayed in the menu below is on the high end, we are here today to review on their set lunch which only available from 11AM to 3PM.
What do We Like about Thai Hou Sek, One Utama? -The delicious fusion Thai foods. The clear tom yum soup was nicely done -The value set meal was indeed value for the money -Comfortable dining environment
Also ordered one of their bestsellers: Siu Yuk Tom Yum. The dish is good enough for 2-3 people, and comes loaded with chunks of roast pork and juicy mushrooms. The soup is everything a good tom yum should be: sour and appetising, great with rice, and spicy with a kick.
Siu Yuk fried rice at MYR 19+ (MYR 20.14 nett). The siu yuk rind is crispy but some may find the meat to be on the dry side.
What do We Like about Sushiya, One Utama? -Fresh and delicious sashimi -Omakase bar for the unique’s view of the chef’s work
Unagi and Grilled Salmon Don with Chawanmushi and Miso RM 48 This is another don we ordered and it is Unagi and Grilled Salmon Don. We know there are many people who are not a fan of sashimi or fresh seafood so this is a good option. Sweet and tasty unagi (eel) with lightly grilled salmon with rice. This also comes with also comes with chawanmushi and miso soup. Overall, we love the food at Ichiro Sushi Bar at Eat Paradise Isetan One Utama. The sashimi here is very fresh and what you pay is what you get in terms of quality of the food.
Ichiro Sushi Bar at Eat Paradise One Utama Shopping CentreIchiro Sushi Bar at Eat Paradise One Utama Shopping Centre offers one of the best sushi and sashimi...
What do We Like about Mak's Chee Authentic Wanton? -Delicious springy wanton noodle and wanton -Soup base full of flavor and umami taste -Many possible combinations to choose from. From beef, pork, prawn, prawn roe, dried, soup, dumpling, wanton, thin to thick noodle
And madam got this order of rice with pork lard and luncheon meat. The rice was quite stodgy, taste was so so. I loved the runny eggs and the soy sauce that was served separately. The luncheon meat was good, not too salty at all.
This is something you would order if you want the best of both worlds, the wantan mee and the prawn wantans as well as prawn sui kow with black fungus. The noodles was totally dry, unlike the usual wantan mee which is served with dark sauce except this was dry so that we can feel the fragrance of the prawn roe. The prawn dumplings are to die for, absolutely heavenly. Quite worth the price since they gave about 6 dumplings instead of 4 pieces like in other fine dining wantan mee restaurants.
The set meal was very filling and satisfying, the jumbo tonkatsu was just right for someone who loves deep fried pork chop.
11am. First customer of the day! The restaurant boasts a classy interior with cool grey walls, sleek wooden furniture and black and white photos/calligraphy. The aesthetics are standard across all of their branches.
The meat isn't dry though the sauce certainly brings the flavor out even more. Definitely well worth it as you can refill the rice, soup and cabbage. Oh you can opt for either normal or multi grain rice too at no extra charge. While I wouldn't recommend bringing your date here since you'll want to stuff yourself silly with the free refills, it's got a nice ambience for a nice date.
Overall, Dave’s has plenty to offer although the menu needs to be more streamlined and a refresh to keep up with current trends. In these increasingly tough times, it would make better sense to retain the crowd-pleasers and introduce newer items on a trial basis to attract new customers while seeking to inject fresh creativity into its current menu.
我们点的主食是炸猪扒,端上桌时有点“受宠若惊”,因为明明是注明着 Petite Lunch Set,可是分量一点也不 petite (小份的意思)。炸猪扒虽然较薄,但是蛮大块的,裹上面包糠,油炸而成。马铃薯泥的味道不会有太多的奶油味,保持着马铃薯本身的味道,口感绵密细腻。猪扒配着马铃薯泥和一旁的芝士酱一起吃起来别有一番风味!
DH ordered the Crispy Pork Knuckle for RM 66. We didn't expect for it to be a big portion but boy, it was! And the name says it all - it's really crispy! It's served on a sizzling hot plate and comes with mixed vegetables and potato wedges.
Overall, i only like the noodle, which is very tasty
Bamboo Herbal Prawn was damn good and I loved it. Bamboo Herbal Prawn @ RM 12.90
Back in May 2012, I have eaten some signature dishes such as Pork Intestines, deep fried pork knuckle, Heng Hwa Bee Hoon, Duck with Yam in Pu Tien when it just opened in One Utama so this time I did not order any of those dishes.
Garlic Fried Rice was superb. Delicious combination of Garlic Fried Rice and Fried Chicken. The portion is more than enough for 2 people. Kimuchi G.RC @ RM 33
Chicken Katsu Curry Rice. I swear that the portion has gotten smaller. Not just the plate.
Next to come is the Sirloin Steak Set priced at RM30.00. The set is served with rice, miso soup and mashed potato & salad. The steak is cooked medium well and served with teriyaki sauce but to my disappointment, the steak is lack of taste. This is the common problem with most restaurant, but probably it's only me that expecting wagyu beef quality everywhere. It's overall good and I think it's a good bargain for this price range in this environment. No complain and I visited this place that many times means that it must be quite good to keep me going back.
Molokhia Minced Leaf Stew + one side dish - RM11.55 Actually, I was a bit skeptical initially. Well, surprisingly, this Molokhia Minced Leaf Stew at this Tut's Eatery tastes great, I do not smell or taste anything greenish like grass. Molokhia is made up of stewed Molokhia leaves spiced with butter, garlic, coriander, cumin and black pepper. In fact, my friend love it, especially when it is eaten with toasted crispy buttered bread. Another highly recommended dish.
Bamya Lamb Stew + 1 side dish (RM 38.50) Double thumbs up for this dish!. Enjoy this tiny lady finger from Egypt where they are beautifully cooked in a delicious stew with the tender premium lamb cubes. Enjoy them with the dish of your choice.
Biram bamya succulent beef stew with 1 side (RM23.90) Daging lembut bersama bendi kecil. Kuah pekat. Very recommended..
The main issue with me has always been the size; for some reason, I think Kyochon’s chicken wings are extremely small – like they get them from kampung chickens or something. 12 pcs here equates to an 8 pc set from 4Fingers (my favourite KFC by the way). Pricewise, Kyochon is also higher than some other KFC franchises, and of course, 45 minutes is too long a wait for a resto that wasn’t full.
Taste wise; it made us to finish almost the tiniest flesh that was on the bone. That described of how well seasoned/sauced of each chicken. Unfortunately, we only managed to try soy garlic series. We definitely will return for other series and larger portion.
½ Chicken original is a perfect choice for those who cannot handle the spice. My sister loved it while myself and my bf loved the red pepper. ½ Original with small meal upgrade @ RM 36.50
While the meat is good and all, my favourite is actually the scallops, which are served in small tin foil bowls swimming in a flavourful broth. The scallops are sweet and juicy with a buttery taste – extremely addictive – and the broth is delicious too
Our lunch for two came up to RM120, which was pretty reasonable for a barbecue buffet. If you come on weekday afternoons, it’s RM39.90++ per pax.
Craving Japanese bbq ? At Rocku Yakiniku @ 1 Utama Shopping Centre, take your pick from premium cuts of meat and seafood, from tempting slices of pork belly ...
Amongst the mains, Claypot Lou Shee Fun left us with the deepest impression. The texture was amazing... addictively bouncy and the dish was expertly cooked. There were not much ingredients and toppings inside though... except a handful of deep fried Pork Lards
Snack for lunch - Curry Chee Cheong Fun (flat rice noodles) with pork slices, potatoes and beancurd puffs (tofu pok) at MYR 10.90++ (10% service charge and 6% SST so total is MYR 12.64 nett) at Oriental Cravings, One Utama. The chee cheong fun was hidden under the potatoes and beancurd puffs. As this was a snack portion, I was able to finish it on my own but was quite full after that.
Pumpkin, prawn and siu yoke fried meehoon... SWOON FACTOR, 9/10. Plump fresh sea prawns from sekinchan, sweet pumpkin and the crispy bits of sesame seed. If this dish isn't on the menu soon, I will personally write and complain to the management. Whoever they may be.
I have had this dish before and I'm afraid I was very disappointed with this one. There was no wok hei fragrance and the whole thing was just salty and flat. The beef slices were very tender but bland.
Char Kway Teow was damn good. It was the highlight of the meal compare to their signature Nasi Lemak. It’s flavourful and has an excellent smoky flavour in it. YUM!!. Char Kway Teow @ RM 19.74
Chicken Satay (RM 11.90) We ordered the satay, choose within the beef or the chicken satay, and this is something not to be missed here too. The succulent chicken meat is well marinated with flavours. Dipped them in the peanut based gravy and you will be sure to falling in love with it.
Verdict: Overall, our Peking Duck course meal was rather satisfying but the portion of the food was a bit small and less compatible to the price. With total damage of RM500.00, (we also had white rice (RM3.00/pax), Oolong Tea (RM6.00/pax) and titbit (RM2.00×3), we certainly hoping a more satisfying meal.
Prosperity Abalone Treasure Pot Feast (RM468 for 6-8 pax ; RM888 for 10 pax)
烤鴨色澤紅豔,皮薄香脆,肉質細嫩多汁,口感酥而不膩,還帶有煙燻木香呢!
The value meal set is too good to bypass so I ordered a bowl of wanton noodles soup with a glass of iced honey chrysanthemum drink from the set menu. This set included a char siew bao and the total price is MYR 15.90+ (10% service charge = MYR 17.50 nett). As usual I kept half portion of the noodles and the whole bao for dinner.
Hong Kong Sheng Kee Dessert Restaurant could be a place for a quick meal to refuel you during lunch time. Currently having four outlets in Kuala Lumpur.
Overall, the food we had was enjoyable and reasonably priced for the portion you get. Frankly speaking, I had my reservations before coming here due to the reviews I read on their FB page. But as it turned out, almost everything was more than satisfying and even exceeded my expectations for a chain restaurant. My dining partners, some of them who had eaten at Sheng Kee a couple of times before this, also agreed that the meal experience we had was better than what they had previously.
【#Enjoy八打灵 隐蔽的咖啡店】被提名Time Out KL Food & Drink Awards 2011 和2012 年最棒的咖啡店, 【Whisk Outpost】在 1 Utama Shopping Centre的地点是相当 隐蔽;所以今天要介绍给大家。
My girlfriend super excited, she been telling me cakes are awesome over here. She recommended me Red Velvet which is best seller and Granny's Cake second best seller. If were to compare between Red Velvet and Granny's Cake, my choice would be Granny's Cake, creamy, fluffy, moist, while Red Velvet slightly sweet for me, overall both cakes are fine for me.
Espresso with 7oz milk (Latte) Coffee art is simple but I would say this latte taste great. Usually I taste milky with latte however this one the coffee taste is strong too. It balances the taste of the coffee’s bitter with the milk, additional point is the bubble foam is not too thick.
What do We Like about WonderMama, One Utama? -The sharing set allows us to have variety of stuff to try
Wondermama has inflated prices on their food, but it is possible to get a good meal for lower than you expected if you get one of their value sets or sharing platters. On our visit there was an additional unexplained 15% discount on food, so we ended up paying an astoundingly great price for two huge dishes with drinks. Pair that with an enjoyable atmosphere and perennially cheerful staff and Wondermama is worth a visit. Especially if you’re in that part of 1 Utama’s old wing and can’t be arsed to walk all the way to that restaurant in the new wing that you want.
What do We Like about Robataya Izakaya One Utama? -Fulfilling and satisfying set meals with many side dishes served with the meal -Reasonably priced and comfortable dining environment
I requested for no teriyaki sauce for the salmon teriyaki set at MYR 28++ (10% service charge and 6% SST = MYR 32.48 nett). Kept half for dinner.
Soft Shell Crab Rice Bowl at MYR 29++ (MYR 33.64 nett after 10% service charge and 6% SST). My friend says that the deep fried soft shell crab is tasty.
