Wendy's @ Jaya 1, Section 13 PJ

Jenn & I went to a warehouse sales nearby but we ended up disappointed, as there was nothing interesting stuff at all. So we came to Jaya 1 for dinner, as it was the nearest place that came into my mind. We walked around looking at the menus outside all the restaurants and cafes... and we ended up at Wendy's.

Wendy's is a fast-food chain that made its foray into Malaysian market not long ago. As I wrote this blog, there are 7 outlets operating in Klang Valley at the moment. It seem that the business is good for Wendy's... they have been steadily opening up outlets across KL and Selangor area. All the layout and operations were similar to McDonald.

We quickly placed our orders, as we were starving :) I went for their Caesar Salad with Grilled Chicken @ RM13.95 - it came with bread cruttons and cheese bits. The mayonnaise sauce was served separately. The chicken meat was tender and soft.

Jenn went for the Spicy Chicken Sensation medium combo @ 11.98 - as the name suggested, the chicken meat was deep fried and quite spicy. It came with medium soft drink and of course... french fries!

We also ordered Broccoli & Cheese Baked Potato @ RM6.99 - what else can I say beside cheese-y??? It was so so only... and not up to our expectation.

Leo's verdict - something fresh to look forward in a fast-food joint... apart from the dominant McDonald, KFC, A&W, etc...

Thai Express @ The Curve, Mutiara Damansara

Thinking of what to eat for lunch, Jenn & I passed by this outlet. Express = fast & we need a quick fix for our hunger. So we just popped in & placed our order.

Iced lemongrass tea @ RM5.90 - it looked like plain water (colourless) when served but one sip was all it took to know that it tasted plain too without much lemongrass flavour. Disappointed!

Initially, Jenn asked for som tum but it was unavailable.. so she ordered tom yam soup with chicken @ RM9.90 - the soup was the clear type. It was quite spicy with generous amount of chicken & oyster mushroom. No complain!

As for me, it would be khao mun gai or bangkok chicken rice with special thai ginger-chilly sauce @ RM16.90 - the name sounded attractive even though I had no idea on what it was. It's Thai version of chicken rice. The chicken was deep fried & the rice was served in claypot (oily rice).

Leo's verdict - the only thing that bugged me was the malfunction air-cond which apparently has been like that for a long time. I remembered that it was the same on my first time here. I was sweating while eating... not a very good eating experience. But then, the food was OK! For those who are afraid of heat, please sit outside instead.. coz at least there's wind!
