So long didn't blog about food. This time I don't talk about the quality of the food, but the service of the restaurant. I was greatly inspired by the lady boss of a restaurant to come out with this post.

Give a big round of applause to~~

Restoran Yong Tau Foo Chan Chan @ Bandar Manjalara, Kepong!

We, total of 4, reached at the restaurant before 8pm. We ordered 30 pieces of yong tau foo only but it took unreasonably long to get our food served. Knowing the sluggish service, once our food was served we straight away placed our order for additional 7 pieces to be taken away.

We finished our food, yet the take-away order was not done yet. We asked for the bill and also the take-away order, for SEVERAL times. Each time we asked, the workers (one chinese lady and many foreign workers) nodded but nobody had done anything on our request.

Our table was at the other side of the restaurant, so we moved to the counter and told the lady boss. She claimed that the kitchen crew were new and not familiar with the orders. She said she would ask them to cook for us IMMEDIATELY and then she went into the kitchen.

We ended up waiting at the counter for another ??minutes. For just 7 pieces of yong tau foo. Finally a chinese guy from the kitchen responded to us, "Sorry the orders are messed up. Another 2 minutes, very fast!"

What? Still have to wait. Okay fine, since it's just 2 minutes more so mum said ok, and we waited.

It was definitely more than 2 minutes yet there was no sign of any take-away order getting ready. I walked to the kitchen and asked the chinese guy for our order. If it's still not done yet then I might want to cancel it. "On the way! On the way!", he said.

Finally as the lady boss handed over the precious yong tau foo to us, I was expecting something like "Here is your order, sorry for keep you waiting...", or at least something like that.

Instead? Making a face, she blamed me for keep urging her although she had explained to me that the crew were new. What?! As if I had done something wrong! Hello, I spend almost 2 hours here just for 37pieces yong tau foo, 1 white rice and 2 chinese teas and WE PAY YOU FOR THAT! RM41! And now we as the customers being blamed.Through her tone of voice and facial expression, I thought we were not customers but the workers who didn't deliver the orders! This is really unacceptable.

I tried to keep my temper and told her not to simply give promise that she couldn't achieve; if the food is not ready yet then just tell the truth, don't let customers wait for 2 minutes and another 2 minutes,...endless! To my surprise she even raised her volume, repeated that her crew were new and I wouldn't understand because I didn't run my own business! What kind of service was that?! I really lost my temper. I do not run a restaurant, but at least I am not treated in this way at other restaurants! She shouted, "Then just go to other restaurants la!"

As her wish, I will definitely NOT going to revisit this restaurant.

I am not the only one who commented on her service. Check this out on Malaysia Most Wanted!

Chilly Pan Mee

... continued from previous post.

We had a walk in Low Yat Plaza after our brunch, and then.... We were trapped in the mall by the heavy rain out there. We walked rounds and rounds then we went to Sg Wang and BB Plaza. We were exhausted. In the end we decided to go back home in the rain.

Reached home, wet, cold and tired. After shower, WE FELT HUNGRY. It was just 5.30pm! And we just finished our buffet lunch 3 hours ago! Oh la la~

For dinner, we went to where we had dinner last night. Haha! Another new discovery, but this is good.

Super Kitchen Chilly Pan Mee Restaurant (The 3rd branch)

Clean environment.

Hygienic cutlery.

Last night I had their signature dry pan mee and Szee had the soup pan mee. Today Szee had the dry one, and I tried their curry pan mee.

The curry pan mee. Aiks, my humble phone, blur blur...

Signature dry pan mee. You can add their HOT dried chili as much as you like. Haiz my humble phone, lagi blur...

I like their signature dry pan mee and soup pan mee very much. The curry one was too thick and too 腻 for me. Szee tried a bit of the curry one and said it was the type of curry noodles he likes. I bet if he orders a bowl and finishes it he'll feel the same way as me. We will see during our next visit.

Dry, soup and curry are the only choices. You cannot choose the size of serving, either. They also serve some side dishes such as dumpling soup, wanton soup and Thai style taufu. Choices of drinks are limited too, but every customers there ordered this:

The thirst and FIRE quencher--lime and plum drink 桔子酸梅

The HQ of this restaurant is located at Jalan T.A.R. somewhere at Chow Kit. It is quite well known at that area.

They have another 4 branches.

Can see? This is at Dataran Sunway, Kota Damansara.

This is the Subang Jaya branch.

Taman Bahagia, PJ. Somewhere at Chow Yang.

This is the one we went, at Kepong, right beside Carrefour.

All the maps are so blur. Sorry lar, my phone is lousy ma.

The price of pan mee ranging from RM5-6. While the lime and plum drink costs us RM2.

Now only I realize that 2 of us are like pan mee-lovers, we've tried pan mee at so many places... Maybe one day I shall introduce 1 by 1 here. Our top 10 pan mee restaurants. Haha.
