I saw Mad About Coco, some months back and even talked about it. Only a few weeks back did I managed to get a good deal off Groupon - cash vouchers =D So who are with me tonight? Min, Von & Jess!
Taste wise - for what we ordered, though not very filling, it's really good! I wanna come and try their soft shell crab menu on the next round!
Service wise - it's alright, it's not too slow. After I ordered, Min and I could still chat a little while waiting for Von & Jess to arrive. We're able to take a good look at the place too.
Environment wise - it's comfortable for small groups to larger groups of 5-6 pax. In a place like this, you can enjoy your chat after your meals. There are a lot of props for you to play with and selfie/wefie. We know we did and enjoyed ourselves!
Price wise - it's not the cheapest deal in town. So, if without the cash vouchers, I'd think twice first about dining here. However, you're paying for the experience and environment I guess. It averages about RM20 per dish, I think. If you're trying anything, make sure you're some special menu instead of the common ones - perhaps the soft shell crab wrap? =)
Since many of my friends were at Publika snapping pictures of pandas, I decided to check it out myself.
What is this whole "1600 Pandas" about?1600 Pandas hope to spread and strengthen the awareness of environment conservation to everyone especially the young generation, not just taking photos with the Pandas. There are many creative and talented people around us, let’s initiate the culture of creative conservation together. (1600PandasMY)
I had to check it out myself to satisfy my intellectual curiosity (wow, I like how that sounds like).
I asked around the event crews and there were more than 300 people queuing up to take pictures together with the pandas in the inner zone! Holy moly! I couldn't get too close to the pandas, and I couldn't wait long for it. So, I decided to move on. The pandas were nice and cute, but they're not that cute that I'd wait for my turn - 300 people or more.. you do the math.
