Having been to Johnny Rockets, Bubba Gump Shrimp n other Halal or pork free Western restaurants I kinda lost hope in ever finding good food in these kind of establishments. The food is mediocre at best best and when the bill comes u start questioning the decision to spend RM50 on an average tasting meal.
imma sorry to say this but im starting judge a western restaurant by the majority ethnicity of the patrons. as much as i dun like doing it, this method seems to work.
Any suggestions for good Halal/pork free western restaurants ?
friend's bday coming up n we don't want to end up at TGIF or Chillis ever again.

QUOTE(advocado @ Jul 10 2015, 11:03 AM) you call them western restaurants i call them fast food restaurants. try Cozy House if you want a taste of traditional Malaysian Western Restaurant, or Victoria station. i call them western restaurants so lets keep em that way |

QUOTE(neoexcaliber @ Jul 10 2015, 11:07 AM) It depends on what kind of food you're planning to eat. Steak? Pasta? probably tex mex TGIF/Chillis type of food. no italian. prices around Chillis/TGIF too if possible |

QUOTE(swks26 @ Jul 10 2015, 11:14 AM) Chillis tastes alright, but the prices seem expensive for what it is. Only been to Tony Roma's and TGIF less than a handful of times. Chillis seem to be more attractive somehow. Not sure how to compare others though. These 3 seem like western/southern diner chains. when i think of those places, dry tasteless grilled chicken fillets will come to mind. |

QUOTE(swks26 @ Jul 10 2015, 11:24 AM) I think Acme South can fall into the same category as Chillis/Tony/TGIF. Though the portion is less and the prices are about on par. But doesn't give the diner feel. As for Johnny Rockets burger diner kind of food, I think Carls Jr tops them. There's Cali burger in Avenue K, but yet to try. Acme South was a bad experience for me. went to the Bangsar one. ordered some southern breakfast platter dish. one of the worst western breakfasts i ever had. d cook damm noob. RM30 summore. |

QUOTE(swks26 @ Jul 10 2015, 11:32 AM) I gotta agree that the food isn't fantastic for what you pay. I feel that it tries to make southern food look slightly more classy but kinda failed. the description in d menu said hash browns n beef brisket. so i imagined 2-3 big pieces of hash browns with beef. d actual dish was fried potato cubes (almost mashed up) with tiny chunks of beef  d waiters hardly speak english. but i did like the interior tho n d nice windows that open up at the smoking section. shud be cool lepaking there at night. |

QUOTE(swks26 @ Jul 10 2015, 11:41 AM) Yeah, the automatic open up windows at smoking section is cool. Agree on the waiters communication. Overall, I think Acme South is worth the try once or twice - nothing to shout about. I rather eat some greasy, oily, deep fried food from Chillis. i had no idea about Acme South. but i always had d impression that d original Acme was good. so my expectations were high. when i tasted d food i facepalm. |
