Grandmama's @ Pavilion Bukit Jalil

Those who went to Pavilion Bukit Jalil on last month might be disappointed with the lack of eateries option. Besides a miserable food court, some bakeries and a Secret Recipe restaurant, the only proper dine in place would be Grandmama's.
The restaurant has other outlets in Pavilion KL, KLIA 1 and Genting SkyAvenue.
This newly opened one is their 4th outlet (i think)
Their menu is similar to Papparich, offering local dishes/rice/noodles, such as nasi lemak, curry noodles, asam laksa, char kuey teow, fried beef kuey teow, chicken rice etc...
After waited/queued for about 15 minutes outside the restaurant, i got an 'alfresco' table facing the corridor, which is still an indoor (inside the mall). Not far from my seat is the Secret Recipe and the food court located at opposite lots.
I ordered a bowl of curry noodles at RM16++...well, even the price is similar to Papparich!
Tastewise...ok la.... can't expect much from a franchise shop.
The meehoon is overcooked and kinda soggy but it was served hot. Too hot till burn the lips...even after 'blowing' it to cool down.
The ingredients are pretty standard....as u can see from below😀
There are around 3 pieces of prawns in it, fresh and bouncy ones!
Their sambal is superb with 'shrimpy' taste....i finished all the sambal.
for dessert....i had cendol (RM10.50++)
It was served in a average size but deep bowl. The portion is huge and can be shared by at least 2-3 persons.
The cendol came while i was eating my noodles half-way through....
noodles was still hot...so can have some cendol to cool down first.
Overall, it was a good & filling meal except that the meehoon was overcooked. Other than that, the taste all hit the right level. The total damage for this meal inclusive of service charge and service tax is RM30.75.
BON APPETIT!

Time is bad. Some shops closed down. Sigh.

Cendol!! I was thinking of it few days ago. Long time didn't have this sweet dessert but weather is cold lately. Haha. Rain check for cendol when weather is hotter. Lol.

Wah, the cendol looks so very good. I have been to this eatery in pavilion kl once and seems to remember the price as more expensive than paparich. Paparich in Sri Petaling closed down already, right?

I miss curry noodle and cendol. Generous ingredients portion in the cendol.
