chicken rice for lunch today.....

The New Restaurant Ipoh Chicken Rice @ Mid-valley had undergone a renovation lately and reopens for business this week. Impromptu, I and 2 colleagues decided to have lunch at this restaurant today to check out the new décor.

The open concept kitchen was moved to the back of the restaurant, releasing more space at the front and customer can smoke on the ground floor as it was not air conditioned. However, the open air concept on the 1st level was removed and the whole floor is now fitted with air-con, which means no smoking allowed!! However, with new and bigger furniture, the whole restaurant seems more crowded. We were advised that there were more seats available upstairs and when we went up to the 1st floor, it was crowded and no tables were available. Hence, we moved down again and managed to secure a table. We ordered their set lunch (for 3 to 4 persons), which comes with 3 plates of chicken rice, quarter chicken, Soup of the day (2 bowls), roast pork, stewed pork with muay choy and La La soup. The chicken and stewed pork with muay choy are very good, as the chicken meat are soft and tender, and the pork melts in your mouth. Total the bill comes to $59.80 (approximately $20 per person). Very fulfilling and satisfying meal…. Still feeling very full now!!

I think their chicken rice set had also increased from $9.90 to $12 per person. I already don’t feel like paying $9.90 for chicken rice set and which such increase, I doubt I will go there often… this will be once in awhile treat for myself……
