Peppermint Vietnamese Restaurant (KK FoodieVenture #25)

So while me and my partner in crime were staying in at the Palace Hotel, we'd decided to venture out to the nearby Karamunsing Capital on foot (the stairs from the hotel's cliff side made the trip possible of course) one night and pretty much snubbed the Karamunsing shopping mall due to some unpleasant experience earlier on. The Vietnamese restaurant has another branch at Jalan Gaya which again we regularly passed by but never actually visited.

My partner was the one who'd walked into the place first, due to being curious over the food provided within the establishment. Hey, it's not everyday that you can find Vietnamese food right? So after some very thought out food selecting (like 15 seconds flat - yup, we pretty much just instinctively pointed at the pictures which looked nice), we decided to try out their Spicy Chicken Rice (surprisingly not that spicy at all, it's actually sweet and very nutty - lovely taste by the way) and their Crispy Spring Rolls (definitely not your typical spring rolls as it's quite huge and has a rough texture - but taste wise was pretty good even though it's a bit oily). Overall we do not have a high expectation coming into the restaurant (in fact, we do not have any expectations, period!) but we were pretty satisfied coming out of the premises.
