Lunch at Four Seas Restaurant, Batu Bersurat

All i can say is the service was really really really sloooooooooow.
I know Four Seas always have this problem which is slow in serving food but this time it was too absurd. There weren't even many people dining there. And, we ordered 3 dishes but only two dishes came. We complained to the waitress that the last dish wasn't served yet and she went to check it in the kitchen and came back to our table asking us if it's alright to change our Dried Chili Chicken to Ginger Onion Chicken. And we were informed later that the chef cooked the wrong dish.
DURRRRRRR~
One of the chefs happened to be Dad's friend and he came to our table and apologized regarding the slow service. He also told us that they just hired a new chef and he read the order wrongly and cooked the wrong dish.

Overall, it wasn't a satisfying meal. The service really spoiled our mood.

Sambal Fried Kang Kong

Dinner at I-Lotus Restaurant, Rimba

I reserved a table on Friday and the person in charge told me over the phone that it is better if I could pre-order the dishes which I'd like to have on Sunday night (they also had the set dinner promotion but it was more suitable for big families. And there were only few of us dinning there so this idea is unapplicable). This is to avoid the slow service as well as the availability of dishes. So, mom and I made a trip to I-lotus on Saturday just to pre-order the dishes but everything just went so wrong on Sunday night.

When we arrived, there weren't many tables occupied yet so we thought the food we pre-ordered would be served at 'normal rate'. But time passed and it had definitely exceeded the 'normal rate'. We kept reminding the staffs about our orders and finally, one dish was served which was Curry Fish Head.

Although it was supposed to be the Cold & Hot plate but we were very hungry at that time so we didn't think much. The portion of the rice was very little but refill is available so don't worry! =D
Next was the Hot Plate Beancurd and Roasted Chicken. When we finished all three dishes, we patiently waited for our cold & hot plate. Again, i reminded the waitress regarding our missed order and she was like doubting us. We really did not had any appertizer. The first dish which arrived was the Curry Fish Head (and it was served 'warm', not 'hot')! So she went into the kitchen again n after few moments, the appertizer came but it was 2 hot dishes plate which were both fritters (for your information, Cold & Hot plate consists of 1 cold dish like jellyfish and 1 hot dish like fritters).

I got quite pissed and asked the waitress and she asked us if we would like to change and mom asked her how long would we need to wait then. She replied, "need quite long time". From here, you could tell that she hope we would accept the wrong order.. so we inquired the price and she said same with the dish we pre-ordered, thus, we accepted the wrong order.

Parents then concluded that NEVER DINE IN CHINESE RESTAURANT FOR SUCH EVENTS.
Why? Cause need to wait really loooooooong time to be served.
Guess for the coming Father's day celebration, we might just go for buffet (actually, dad already requested where to dine on the coming Father's day... semangat jua -_______-|||)
