Burgers by @LuvYummylicious

So, I'm aware it's been literally ages since any of us posted anything.

We've all just been busy growing up and becoming proper adults who have to work and make a living and take care of our husbands and recently, our babies too. Hehe.

But here's something truly worth raving about that has dragged me back to the keyboard just to scream about it so you lot would know: Burgers by @LuvYummylicious!

They have a wide selection of choices and are always expanding their menu, but here's what I've tried so far:

The Juicy Lucy (RM 15) -

Befitting its name, this baby's made up of a fluffy burger bun, a load of fresh salad and tomatoes, and a seriously juicy beef patty that's been stuffed with cheese!

Behold!

Juicy cheesy centre

Hubs and I found this one thoroughly enjoyable and worth every penny, especially with that fat, cheesy patty.

Thumbs up from the big man

The Vader Burger (RM 15) -

With an excessively large breadcrumb chicken patty--and yes, it's all chicken with none of those processed stuff--this burger is big enough to satisfy huge appetites (God knows, I couldn't have finished it on my own).

Succulent chicken meat, crispy breadcrumb crust, heaps of greens, a fluffy charcoal burger bun, and their special sauce (wth is in that sauce?!) makes this one a must try.

It's so big you have to learn a new eating trick - cradle it.

Unfortunately, I lost the original photos of the next three dishes so just bear with the tacky picstitch version, please. I'll put up the real photos once I've found them :D

Royal Swiss Mushroom Oblong (RM 27) -

I know. You're looking at that price and thinking, "Really? For a burger?" But I can assure you that this is another not-so-normal-sized burger. For one, the panini bread makes up for it. Second, that heaping mountain of really tasty, I-don't-quite-know-how-they-cooked-it, mushroom gives it a sure punch. And third, there's a hell of a lot of meat (beef AND lamb!) right smack in the middle of that burger. And if you'd willingly pay RM 27 at TGI Friday's, why not here?

The Yoda Burger (RM 15) -

I must admit I was skeptical of this one for two reasons:

1. It's green.

2. I've had bad experiences with prawn burgers.

I'm happy to admit though, I was fairly surprised to find that I liked it (And I loathed myself that night for ordering it for the husband instead of myself)

What's special about it? Imagine biting into your burger patty, expecting blended up shrimps and instead finding actual tiger prawns! And that sauce! Seriously, I'm wondering if they put drugs in their special sauces.

Coney Dog with Cheeze (RM 7) -

One word: YUM!

So, so good! 

And finally, this one's not a burger but it's the one thing I've ordered so many of, it's a wonder my blood sugar level hasn't risen.

Pecan White Chocolate Chip Cookies (RM 18) -

The first piece I popped into my mouth, a full jar in the background.

Two days later, all gone :(

Let's just put it this way, over the span of two weeks, my family and I ordered a total of 12 jars, and eaxh jar opened was finished within two days.

Do I really need to say more?

All in all, so far, they have yet to disappoint me.

Food tastes WONDERFUL and I can't praise the customer service enough.

South Sea seafood Restaurant, Subang

Disclaimer: This will be a sort of long post so if you''re not in the mood to read, just skip to the final paragraph.

In the spirit of trying new restaurants, my colleagues and I recently went to the South Sea Seafood Restaurant in Subang after my boss read a raving review about it, having been recently renovated and spruced up. To be fair, we were quite impressed by how nice the restaurant looked and how crowded it was. Their huge parking lot was filled up almost to the brim when we arrived at 8pm so we were really looking forward to some mouthwatering dishes as we made our way to our table. 

Let's start THIS review with 10 points and deduct a point for every negative, shall we?

When we got to our table, it took about 15 minutes before they finally sent someone to take our orders (and the person they sent over was NOT nice!). We asked her what the house specials were and she said "crab, chicken, like that lah." She rushed through the entire process of taking our order, making annoyed faces while we made our decisions. When she was halfway through and we were about to order our drinks, she hollered to a different waitress and asked her to take our drinks order instead which we actually found irritating but fine, whatever (deduct a point).

When a waitress came with our drinks, we found out they got our orders wrong (deduct a point).

So here's what we ordered:

  

Mango and Watermelon juice (RM 32/pitcher):

This was one thing they did right, thankfully. Although the first two pitchers came in tasting too watery, the next two pitchers were thick, sweet, and ice cold, just the way juices should be although we think RM 32 for a jug of juice is really quite steep.

BBQ Squid (RM 26):

I'm not much of a squid person, to be honest, unless it'd deep fried squid. BUT this dish was quite tasty. The squid that was served were whole baby squids and they were fresh and good enough for my taste buds. Not exactly awesome, though.

Buttered Prawns (RM 54):

I was quite honestly, very VERY disappointed when this was served. Yes, the prawn were quite large in size but I didn't like how it was cooked. We're used to buttered prawns that have the stringy butter thingies all over them and this one didn't. The prawns didn't even taste very good. In fact they were quite bland and tasteless (deduct a point).

Sauteed Broccoli and Mushroom (RM 38):

This dish was oyster sauce based and i sincerely believe that its extremely difficult to screw up a dish as simple as this one. They, however, managed to screw it up quite successfully. Although the crunch of the broccoli was retained, the mushrooms were somewhat rubbery and the sauce was too salty (deduct a point).

Stir Fried Ginger Lala (RM 28):

I have no complaints about this dish. It tasted fantastic and the shellfish were very fresh. Two thumbs up for this dish.

Steamed Garupa/ Grouper (RM 92):

For a dish THAT costly, I was expecting it to blow me away. No such thing. The fish was fresh BUT it was tasteless, much to our disappointment. It wasn't naturally sweet and the meat was tough instead of fall-apart-soft that fresh fish usually are like. A definite let down (deduct a point) 

Buttermilk Crab (RM 78):

We were almost immediately disappointed by this dish. It was one of the last dishes to be served and after all the let downs we faced, we were so sure the crab wouldn't be any good either. We were half right and half wrong. The crab were not soft enough, and like the fish and prawns, they didn't have the natural sweetness going for them but the dish was sort of saved by the gravy wish was as thick and rich as what we're used to but had a little extra tang to it because of the chili bits that they cooked the sauce with. (deduct half a point)

Fried Mantou/ Chinese Bun (RM 7.20/dozen)

I was not happy with their mantou. Mantou should be soft and fluffy enough that it can absorb all the delicious goodness of whatever gravy you dip it into. This mantou was to small and the frying oil seem to have seeped through much of the exterior so that its insides is not as soft and fluffy as it should be. The outside of the mantou was also not crispy enough. So upsetting (deduct a point)

When the waiter who took our order was rushing us to place our orders, she actually forgot to jot down one of our orders. My boss left the place disappointed because she didn't get her sizzling tofu dish (deduct a point). And while i was eating, a waitress who wanted to change my bowl and give me a clean one instead failed to ask me if it was okay to take my full bowl away. She took away an entire bowl of lala. Uneaten. and threw it in the dirty plate pile. Which means, she wasted my food AND she was rude because she didn't ask first (deduct a point).

The bill came up to a total of RM 517.10; much more than what we're used to paying for a lot less than what we're used to having. We swore to ourselves that this will be the first and LAST time we ever set foot at this restaurant. And now they're left with 1.5 points. Which really goes to show, they're not even worth it.
