It is very rare that my partner and I venture out of Damansara Uptown. For our Saturday date nite (that is if I work or else I would cook dinner) it is either Starling Mall (or restaurants in the vicinity) or 1 Utama. We are so predictable. The only other time we ventured out, I got drunk hah..hah...
But one Saturday evening we had to run an errand at MyTown Shopping Centre. Was I excited? Well, I was, at the prospect of dining at some new place, not so much of the mall. You see one mall, you see them all.
It was a typical Saturday evening. Lots of cars. We were entering unfamiliar territory. But we got there eventually.
First stop is to fulfill our mission.
To pick up a race pack. No, no, not for us but for his boss.
Next mission, makan! But where?
There were a few choices.
I am OK with anything but my partner's palate is more limited.
We went up and down, searching.
Then it was narrowed down to either this :
Or this :
Although I had my heart set on Ramen Bari-Uma, I chose Pho Street (to my regret), because I noted that my partner is not partial towards ramen when we were at Menya Musashi.
My partner chose chicken pho, just like he always does when we are at Pho Vietz.
I like vermicelli salad and had the one with beef. It was all right, not as good as I had expected.
We enjoyed our shared passion fruit drink.
The spring rolls were just so so. After the dinner, my partner was still feeling peckish.
As we walked around, we spotted this.
Ice cream!
Why not, eh? Three scoops each.
My partner had the mint, lychee and chocolate. I know. A rather strange combination.
Me, I stuck to vanilla, chocolate and I can't remember the other one. Oh dear. I think it was a cherry or berry.
We both agreed that the ice cream was not that great. It had a doughy chewy texture. Even the flavors were not that good. But that's just our opinion. We still prefer Baskin Robbins.
And with that, we would most likely not return to MyTown since it's really out of our way.
Oh very nice food darling
ReplyDeleteGreat photos

Thanks :)
Deleteimho, the eateries in MyTown is so meh when compared to 1u and Starling. I think Bari Uma Ramen would be a better choice for you.
ReplyDeleteYes, made a bad choice but at least I got to try Ramen Bari Uma with my brother.
DeleteFrom the pics of the eateries you took (and were contemplating to eat in), Tail & Fin would have been your best bet :) Well, at least you enjoyed a shared passion....fruit drink, I mean...kekeke! :D
ReplyDeleteI would have loved Tail & Fin but you-know-who might not like such food hah..hah...
DeleteOh! Sad that the Vietnamese place was not up to your expectations. I love Vietnamese!
ReplyDeleteMe too, just that this one did not meet expectations.
DeleteI thought u were having date with Kris when I read about your title :P
ReplyDeleteOh? Why Kris? hah..hah..
DeleteBecause it's her territory.
DeleteWah. Boss's mission. Interesting ice cream combination but I mind tasting it. I also like yours, more of my taste.
ReplyDeleteFirst time that I heard about this ice cream brand hah..hah...
