Skohns Canteen

Affordable Halal Western Food.. Kalau tengah mencari2 western food, this is the place to be. Location kat The Place Damansara Perdana, kalau datang for dinner parking senang, kalau lunch agak susah skit..And to be honest, building The Place ni agak scary sikit..banyak kedai by Africans..
Tapi bila tanya owner Skohns ni, so far tak dak la kejadian yang tak diingini berlaku, diorang buat hal diorang je.. :)
 
The restaurant is owned by Malay so food mmg confirm Halal.
My recommendations - Lamb Shank, Beef Short Ribs and Grilled Steak... the pictures below is from my second visit, and sadly malam tu Ribs dah habis :(.. Masa first time datang dulu dah rasa dah, memang sedap..comparable to Tony Romas but cheaper..
The deep fried steak tu to me biasa je - tak berapa kena dgn my taste buds..rasa macam makan Chicken Chop pulak tapi daging :).. so better Grilled Steak kot..
 

Nachos (average je, sebab nachos dia pakai snack Chachos tu, bukan buat sendiri)

Lamb Shank - sedap and tak memuakkan)

Grilled Chicken Chop

Mixed Grill

Salmon & Pasta

Red Lobster

Totally forgot about this one..dah memerap lama giler..hehehe

Weekdays lunch session with Sis and sorang kawan/officemate dia Izira.. :)
Red Lobster ada few branches dah , so this one we went yang kat Quill City Mall.
Judging from friends and online reviews, my expectation dah tak berapa tinggi dah..hehhe.. tapi nak try jugak..seeing is believing or eating is believing in this case.. :)

Order punya la belambak, masing2 kelaparan...nampak je banyak tapi habis jugak..hehehe ialah its only seafood, takda main/heavy dish pun..kira mcm makan lauk jela..

Complimentary cheddar bay biscuits

New England Clam Chowder

Mussels Marinara

Island Seafood Feast - Maine lobster tail, snow crab legs, jumbo coconut shrimp, shrimp grilled with pineapple salsa

Colourful & cheerful drinks..

My verdict: Overall biasa-biasa je..and disappointingly lobster agak masin and lembik (macam x fresh)
others is so-so only.. Hmm being a big chain dari America memang x surprise langsung la..biasanya big chains ni food dia biasa-biasa je.. :)

My advice, kalau nak makan lobster yang betul2 sedap kena pergi right thru the source..eg kat Sabah ke or the Lobsterman. Pasal kat sini lobster dia fresh dan masak simple je..baked or grill...Seafood kalau fresh, grill kosong camtu je pun dah sodap.. :)

Foodsbury

Sebelum hari Jumaat tiba, awal-awal lagi Amy (Mamatisya) mesej ajak lunch sama-sama..hehehe
Iyela, Jumaat kan lunch hour org perempuan ni lama la sikit..so sempat la nak lepak2 and borak2 panjang..
Kebetulan Julia pun text ajak lunch, so I pun bawak la dia sekali..memang satu jalan pun..

Kat Shah Alam ni dah banyak betul food cafe rambang jugak dah pilih..tak tau mana yang sedap atau tak..
Tapi yang confirm, Fooodsbury ni dah lama bukak..dah few years gak kot..so kalau dah lama bertahan tu mesti la food dia ok kan..

   

Deco yang cantik dan simple, rasa macam kat rumah pulak..

Sampai je restaurant, ya Allah, ramai nya orang, semua perempuan pulak tu..hahah..dah datang time Jumaat..orang lelakinya pergi sbyang Jumaat ler..
 

Beratur panjang, sebab konsep sini order & bayar, pastu baru tunggu food sampai

Tertarik dengan graffiti gajah ni..

End up, dapat la seat dekat dengan tangga ni..ok la..tapi view tak menarik sangat..nak buat mcm mana, takde choice sbb orang ramai..
Our orders, Amy - Lamb Carbonara, Me- spicy olio, Julia-beef burger..
Drinks - 

  

Amy and Julia

"Here's the Beef Burger" - RM18.90

Lamb Carbonara - RM14.20 (agak masin sedikit, maybe sebab masak kalut2 kot)

Spicy Beef Aglio Olio - RM11.50

My drink - Berries Go Nowhere..order sebab nampak unik & cute.. :P

Alhamdulillah, overall food sedap and berasa. pricewise pun ok..

My complaints - service is too slow, iyela paham kedai memang tengah ramai orang, tapi kalau dah order meja orang sebelah yang datang kemudian sampai dulu..angin la jugak kan.. Order Amy la yang lambat..kitorang dah habis makan, baru dapat yang dia punya..adus kesian..itu pun dah berapa kali tanya waiter dah..
Apa yang I notice, kalau kebetulan you guys order sama dengan order meja lain, dia akan masak sekali..hmm to me tak patutla mcm tu..Masak ikut turn la..
Kalau tgk insta diorg mmg ramai pun complain pasal slow service ni..
Hmm guys..please improve your kitchen work speed.. :)

Fiq's Gastronomy

Our usual weekdays hangout with the usual suspects, Yath & Linda....it's Linda's off day..
Mana pulak nak pergi kali ni...Tempat yang pernah rancang dulu tapi tak jadi sebab ada private function masa tu.. Fiq's Gastronomy at Subang Jaya.
Waze aje ke sana..parking biasa la office hour. Limited,  kitaorg pusing 2 kali baru dapat parking. 

Interior sangat chill n sempoi..unsur2 recycle material memang tengah in sekarang.. :)

Weehuuu, Linda, Yath & Umar Dani

Pengantin Baru Linda... :P

Umar Dani dah mula kenal me, tak riau dah..merenyih ja..:)

Nampak macam ganas, padahal ayam tu kecik je..haluih...ayam tak cukup membesar lagi..

Pandan Chicken..Ayam Sekoq...

Soft shell carb pasta ni Yath punya.. crab sedap, not too oily and garing just nice tapi pasta dia rasa ada tapi quite bland..kurang kick skit..

Soft Shell Crab Pasta

Mine, Crispy Duck Oglio, hmm 5/10..nuff said

Crispy Duck Oglio

Fries for Umar Dani..

Fries

Overall 6/10.. Takde menu yang mengancam sangat..tengok IG diorang food presentation nampak menarik sangat, tang rasa agak disappointed skit.. Price pun agak mahal, average per plate 20++.
Well its my tastebuds..korang punya mungkin lain kan..

Badoque Restaurant

Wah, dah lama teringin nak try tempat ni, been following their Instagram acc -badoquecafe , and looking at their menu, just makes you drool...
Since we are going into Singapore, our lunch place have to be this place.
They have two outlets, one in Simpang Bedok and the other kat Upper Thomson. Cehh macam tahu je kat mana kan..Sebab tak tahu yang mana dekat, so bedal jela. We choose to go to the Simpang Bedok outlet. 
Sebab drive sendiri, takda hal la..just key in dlm GPS..maka sampailah.. kalau naik public transport, kena kaji lebih dalam..and if anything you can always ask these guys..

Restaurant ni owned and run by Malay guys, so confirm la Halal. No worries.
What's good here, hmmm, rasanya semua sedap kot..heheeh..macam la dah rasa semua..tapi looking at their menu and customers feedback, memang mostly sedap kot..

We are here at 3pm, and still there a crowd in here..business is good..

Eye catching menu..

Sebelum makan, wefie dulu..

Our orders,
Badoque Ribs - a must have here. perrrghhh daging dia is like melting, lembut and well marinated..boleh lawan Tony Roma's. And I'll give Badoque's higher points compare to Tony Roma's cause of the size..

Kepak Bing-bing - a crowd favorite, but only if you are into spicy food, cause it is damn spicy. Tapi sedap, unlike your typical spicy buffalo wings, biasanya its spicy & masam2 ( western style of spicy), macam Tabasco sauce tu..But here, padas dia terangkat wooo...kena dengan selera orang Melayu.

Signature dish, Badoque Ribs..

Kepak Bing-bing, spicy chicken wings

Badoque Fried Chicken - besar giler portion die..its for Rania actually :)

Iced Salted Caramel

Hot chocolate with marshmallows

Perut dah kenyang, time to visit relatives in Sg.

One thing to note here, portions are big. Kalau datang berdua, order satu dish dah cukup.
So its best if you come with friends and family la, party of 4 upwards..baru la seronok makan macam2 jenis..:)
The shop itself agak kecik, tapi ada outdoor dining area jugak, no problem kalau datang ramai2.
