It was a nice Sunday morning, my friend and I was looking
for a nice place to not just to have lunch but to stay there for some time. So
we discovered this place called ABC
as known as Acme Bar and Coffee, my
friend went there before and he suggested me to do a booking before going as it
will be very crowded on weekend. So after I done with the booking around 9.15AM
(the restaurant open for business at 9.30AM) for 1PM lunch, we start our journey around
11.30AM.
We reached our destination around 12.30PM, as what my friend
would have thought, the place was crazy crowded with people.
The weather has changed slightly cloudy, so the outside part
of the seats is not seated that day.
It would be a waste I thought because if the weather is
sunny the outside part seems to be a nice place to have both warm sunlight and
the natural breeze from the wind.
So as we wait for the booked time, I went and shot some
photos around the place.
I noticed the reception table has some fake plants and some
random decorations, the butterfly is fake as well for those who concern.
Look at the waiting list in the book, it was full of names
and numbers, I noticed their phone rings are very old-fashioned ring, so I went
closer to have a look, well it really is an old-fashioned phone, I thought it
suits the interior design as a whole.
Thanks to the natural sunlight, the place looks elegantly
beautiful and classy.
We have our seat and we start to order:
Main
- Sea Bass Fruitere (RM 41.00) – Pan seared sea bass, anjou pears, cranberry chutney, citrus cilantro, salmon roe and sea salt.
- Moroccan Pineapple Chicken Breast (RM 39.00) – Grilled chicken breast with chick peas, French beans, barley mushroom ragout.
Sides
- Grilled “Bacon” Wrapped Snails (RM 25.00) – With coco beans and parsley garlic sauce wrapped in duck bacon.
*government tax
and service charges are not included for the above prices.
I was going to have
seafood as my lunch so I thought I would order a side dish I did not try before
the bacon wrapped snails.
After we ordered we are served with plain water and I like
where we seated, I have this view just in front of me, where the right side has
a nice sunlight shines through and on the left side has a nice dim lighted
section.
For those who likes dessert (especially ladies), you may
find your likings near the barista section, thank me later ladies.

| Lovely colors |
Every table has this cute pretty cup of fake flowers nice to
see because it is colorful, oh besides that I also found that their coaster has
nice design as well.
After 15 minutes and more of waiting finally we have our
food served!

| Nice coaster design! |
Mine one would the Sea Bass, for your information Sea bass
is a type of fish, the term bass shared by wide range of species of fish,
anyway this dish is cook with a lot of fruits as seen in the description, hence
the word “fruitere” is at the back of the name of the dish.

My first bite at the fish, it was slightly fine, it does not
have the sweet and freshness taste of the sea but it did not has the fishy
taste as well, so it was just ok. The fruit dressing is mostly sweet and slightly
sour, the reason might because of the combination of cranberry and citrus
cilantro, and oh if you look closely they have the salmon roe on top of the sea
bass.
I asked my friend about his food

| Moroccan pineapple chicken breast |
The Moroccan Pineapple Chicken Breast, you may already smell
its spice in your nose before you start to enjoy, however when you have it in
your mouth, it somehow near to the state of tasteless, the dressing is nice,
the barley mushroom mix with the French beans has the right essence for me. For
my friend it is kind of a letdown for him.
Following up is the sides I ordered, I took a few sip of the
sauce made with parsley garlic, it was slightly tasteless despite how the color
is vivid to our eyes. Next, I tried the bacon wrapped snail, the taste of the
bacon is tasty as usual, but the snail is tasteless as well, I do not know
whether it is supposed to be like this or did I miss something important here.
Do let me know if I ever missed
something, thanks in advance.
To be honestly, I like the place and environment, it was
really a good place for leisure time with families and friends, just that the
food we ordered does not taste strong. If you all need to visit this restaurant
on weekend, I suggest you all to make a book first.
