Still lingering around the Imago Shopping Mall lower ground new wing (by that I mean the wing that extended from Everrise & not the KKV/Miniso side) I also found the viral Kenangan Coffee kiosk (located right in front of the newly relocated Watson branch). I did mentioned before that I'm not exactly a fan of the whole coffee shop trend & even more so when they only accepted online orders (at said time) but I was eventually lured into ordering due to their very enticing discounts. Needless to say, I've ordered their Signature Double Choco Frappe, Mocha Chips Frappe & Pistachio Chocolate (on seperate occasions of course) and it was alright. I'm surprised to find myself actually liking the latter, since it has a very good balance of choco + pistachios tastes. Would probably go back just for that particular drink in the future (if they're able to maintained their quality of course).
Just across to the KyoChon Chicken (and right next to the Mr DIY Plus, on the newly extended lower ground floor of Imago Shopping Mall) is another new Thai inspired eatery. And let me tell you that it was quite a challenge to even get a seat at this place (especially during school holidays) as the waiting queue is almost always long. But after almost a week of staying on top of the mall, we'd managed to 'decode' the 'pattern' of customers coming into said eatery and were finally able to get ourselves a table one evening. So was it worth it? Err.. I personally would prefer Thong Bowl's food but theirs were quite good as well. Their specialty are boat noodles so I've ordered each of the four flavors that are available (Laksa Noodles, Tomyum Noodles, Boat Soup Noodles & Pak Lo Noodles) while hubby had their Red Curry Spicy Beef and Fish Cake and all were okay at best. I guess different people had different taste.
Just so y'all know, before we went to the Magellan Sutera Resort for some quality 'healing' time, me and hubby were actually cooped up at Imago Shopping Mall for almost a week. And since it rained nonstop while we were there, we decided to explore what Imago truly has to offer in terms of food. And apparently with its newly renovated & expanded lower ground floor, I would say A LOT.
Take this Korean originated chicken franchise for example. I only got to know about them when they'd opened at said lower ground floor new wing (right in front of Mr DIY Plus) despite me being a self proclaimed Kpop person. We were more curious than hungry when we went into their restaurant so we decided to just share their platter of Red Pepper, Soy Garlic and Honey flavoured wingette & drumette set and it was not bad at all. Kinda similar to 4Fingers and BBQ Chicken but tastier in my opinion. I've also spotted Melona but I'm not too sure whether you can order them just like that or you need to order their drinks as well (as the popsicles were integrated into their drink menu).
Social media has been hyping this place up ever since its initial grand opening sometime end of last year. I honestly had no idea who they were before that so my expectations going to their branch at Imago Shopping Centre (ground floor outer shops, right next to Chagee) was not that high. Plus I've seen people post about their giant sized milk tea & that hanging chicken thingy which I was not that impressed by. But as I tried out their Chicken Drumstick Rice with Radish & Egg (and also my hubby's Creamy Tomyum Mama Mee with Prawn Ball & Mushroom) I found myself actually loving their Thai food. The dishes were somewhat on the salty side & flavors were strong but I actually like them. It fits my personal palate I supposed. Their Grilled Beef Ball with Sweet Chilli Sauce was also very nice although the portion was rather small according to my hubby who's an instant fan. Overall I would say that it's worth the hype.
Let me start off my most recent KK culinary adventures with my least fave of them all. We were at Plaza 333 Kobusak Commercial Centre in Donggongon for lunch but was disappointed to discover that the eatery we'd initially wanted to go to had their off day that day. So since we didn't exactly have any other back up plan (and since we were pretty famished) we decided to just enter this restaurant which was nearby (they're located on the same row as Mak Enon but on the ground floor instead of the upper floors).
Formerly known as KadaiKupi (that's what it said on their menu anyway) the restaurant offers typical local cuisines so we decided to try their Nasi Goreng Kampung & Nasi Madu Tiga (which consists of rice plus prawns, squid and chicken chunks if I'm not mistaken). I would say.. Okay la.. It's not that bad but not that great either. Their dishes reminded me of your average 'gerai' food (with some gerai having better tasting food). So would I come back again to the place in the future? Probably not.
