Dinner at Uncle Don's, SS2

Usually, when I go to SS2, it's either for Japanese, Korean or Thai food. Rarely would I think about having western food in this area - it's either too pricey, or not convenient.

However, a friend of mine mentioned about Uncle Don's having affordable western food. I was skeptical. I thought either it's a dessert parlor or it must be shop a economy mixed rice. When my friend brought us there, it turns out that Uncle Don's is neither, and definitely NOT a economy mixed rice shop. It's nearby one though.

When passing by Uncle Don's, some people like me, would think that this is a bar. That assumption would also be correct, because they do serve alcoholic beverages here. So what was surprising was not only that I had passed by this restaurant countless times, but also its menu! (You may start guessing the price tags on the menu)



Most of the items in the menu are indeed affordable, and this place is a MUST-try for its ambience, food quality and especially if you're a fan of alcoholic drinks.

Oh ya, the place has a no-smoking policy between certain hours (I think it's from 10am to 9.30pm?). So if you're seated indoors, you won't have to worry about smoking drinkers disrupting you from having a good meal (unless you love the smell of cigarettes).

Uncle Don's tagline:
With a rustic-chic, chilled-out design, this diner, bar & grill is designed to cater 5-star quality food & beverage at insanely cheap pricing!

I'd definitely recommend coming to this place (more than once) to try out their menu!

20042015 Dinner at Two Pesos, SS2

Monday blues?! Not at all, at least not after working hours, that's for sure. Tonight, Min and I planned to go to the night market at SS2. While heading there, I was still thinking of what to get for dinner. I couldn't think of anything until the moment I found a parking and got an idea for dinner! Somehow with Min, I always seem to be in luck to get parking. My makan-buddy and lucky charm =)

Two Pesos Stone Pot
RM11
Very healthy in taste, it's just plain with all the ingredients!
Could use some extra boost in the soup base though.
But overall, it's great and quite filling too!

If you plan to dine here, you better come early. As what I've observed and with what Min told me, this place is very packed during dinner time, especially 7PM onwards. It could lead to a long queue outside the shop!

The environment's alright, cozy and nice for dinner and I bet it's the same for lunch too. The aircond's pretty chilly, but I guess that's goes well with the steam boat =)

The price's very affordable, considering that you'd be filling pretty full once you finish up the soup. They're pretty quick with serving as well, and the service's pretty good. So, it's definitely worth the money!

Location:
No. 7, Jalan SS2/67,

Opens:
From 12pm - 3pm for lunch, and
From 6pm to 11pm for dinner.

14022015 Mum's Birthday Eat Out

Yup it's the 14th February, we all know what day that it globally, and it also happens to be my mum's birthday =) I'm my momma's boy, just so you know. So on this glorious day, I dedicate the whole day to her (also happens it's a weekend, and I'm not working =P)

Brought my mum back to SS2's Korea House for dinner. If you love Korean food and you haven't been there, give it a try! I don't have a share in the place, but I've been there a few times prior to this visit, and I still am steadfast with the saying "Must come back again"

I like the environment and service a lot =) They're attentive, quick and responsive. The taste is definitely worth paying for, although it does break a budge but it's not super expensive. You really get the taste of authentic Korean food, according to my sources =P You'll love the Pork Belly, and you'll like the variety of side dishes - it's different every time (check out the pictures below)! I'm pretty cautious with where I dine (unless I don't have a choice) so if I can leave a place (with a desire to return or revisit the place) with a smile each time, it means it's worth it.

During dinner, I promised my family that I'd bring them for some of the best shaved-ice desserts (aka bingsu) I know. We headed to OW:L Espresso (we're back again and you know what that means too =P Click here to check out my previous post about this place)

Yet to try their coffee-bingsu but their bingsu's are worth the travel to try (again and again)! I don't think I can ever find another place that offers shaved-ice dessert this smooth and not so sweet (it's dessert but you don't have to feel overly guilty about it either! =P). There's many Koreans visiting this place as well; I suspect the person is charge is a Korean too, but I haven't got a chance to speak with him personally. Must find an opportunity one day to do so =D

Special menu - Mango Cheese Bingsu!
Yea, we got not one, but TWO (2) regular-sized bingsu.
Large = RM29
Regular = RM16
Originally, we order a large one, but they got our order wrong and offered us two regular-sized instead.
*we're in luck!*
How awesome is that??

This mango cheese is a must-try if you're a a fan of bingsu and also cheese lover! =P
The combination is simply awesome!
