Hi everyone, recently I tried out this new
booking site called OffPeak, and it is all about
Food! With OffPeak, you’re able to book
a reservation at a restaurant near you and it has a great selection of
restaurants mainly in the Klang Valley, with 2 in Penang and 1 in Pahang
What’s cool about OffPeak? You get
discounts depending on the time! For example, at 3-4pm(non-peak period) you may
get about 30% discounts off your total bill. And it is also very convenient
because you’ll be able to book it online straight away without having the
hassle of calling up the restaurant to arrange a booking
So I tried out OffPeak.my to review 2
restaurants, named Fat Spoon, Uptown and La Bodega, Empire Shopping Gallery
So first up: Fat Spoon
Fat Spoon is known for its Nyonya-inspired delights that incorporate family
tradition and Gen-Y ingenuity. I brought Eileen along and we ordered a 3 course
meal for ourselves J Yippee!
Eileen
Myself
Hot Chocolate – Rich & Chocolaty
Latte – Well Balanced
Seared
Tamarind Prawns (RM18)
Verdict: the 5 pcs of Prawns were of medium
size, there was a strong taste of Tamarind & tangy after taste. A little
overpriced, but if you have the spending power, why not?
Kentucky
Fried Oysters with Kaffir Lime Mayo (RM18)
Verdict: There were 4 pcs of oysters of
medium size. Batter was crispy even after we waited for about 10 minutes. The
Mayo didn’t overpower the oyster and is a great pair.
Moo
Moo Rice Bow (RM16) – A hearty bowl of basil beef tenderloin served over rice
& topped with fried egg + ABC soup
Verdict: It was delicious & one of
their specialties, beef was tender with a slight basil after taste. The ABC
soup washed it all down nicely. Great for the price being paid
Ulam
Angel hair Pasta (RM15) – Angel Hair Pasta Tossed in Light Curry Sauce,
Aromatic Ulam Herbs & Minced Chicken
Verdict: Very fragrant and has a unique
taste. The sambal is slightly sour and not too spicy. Recommendation will not
to overdose the sambal or it’ll kill the Ulam’s taste
Fat Chocolate
Cake with Ice Cream (RM15)
Verdict: Cake was rich in flavor, but was a
little dry and crumbly (probably it’s just that day as I had it before and it
was alright), but the ice cream managed to “moisten” up the cake
Last
Polka Ice Cream - Salted Gula Melaka (RM7.80)
Verdict: Definitely Unique, Something you’ll definitely
enjoy
It was a great meal over there and the restaurant
owner, Michelle was really pleasant with us. Do head over there and give it a
try and of course, book it with OffPeak.my!

The next Restaurant I went to was La Bodega
at Empire Shopping Gallery
It is one of the most famous Spanish
Restaurants in town with plenty of outlets around. It serves great food &
alcoholic drinks for anyone who walks in
This time I just ordered a main course with
Eileen, so there won’t be much pictures on this one J We
sat at the bar & ordered a paella & spaghetti
The
Bar View. Pretty!
Paella
Fideua (RM27) – Angel hair Pasta Cooked in a Paella Pan with Chicken,
Cuttlefish, Squid and peas
Verdict: If you have time to spare, get a
plate! As it takes about 30 minutes to cook this but its well worth it is
really tasty and it was full with condiments. (not like those normal mee you
get with very little meat & condiments)
Spaghetti Meatballs (RM28) – Lamb Meatballs
in rich tomato sauce served with spaghetti pasta
Verdict: Love the lamb meatballs, it so
much more tender compared to that certain brand everyone loves =P. The Sauce is
thick and nice
