YeOlde English: nice reasonably price western pick

Ye Olde English, from the road side

business is so good that tables
are set up in the corridors
as well

It had been quite some time since the last time we paid YeOlde English a visit. There had to be a reason why the shop had been in existence for so many years despite the nearby restaurants changed owner few times. We decided to go to the one in Greentown business centre, just opposite O Place. In one of the corner, just drive around and one will not miss the green neon sign.

selection of cakes

The service is rather good despite full of customers. The menu is simple, basically western choices. That includes some delicious looking cakes. However, lately, the list expanded to include some local delights as well such as noodles. Expect the usual chops and steak, but did not find any pork served. Hmmm. bit disappointed there since was craving for a pork burger that night.

Grill fish

Chef chicken

The food. Do expect the norm. We ordered chef chicken (RM 12.99) which was served with french fries and coleslaw. The chicken was marinated with local spices, it just tasted like satay or rendang. Though it did not taste western at all, but I really enjoy the taste. Fries was bit soggy though. Not complaining since it is not the main star anyway. Grill fish (RM11.99) was next, it did taste good, not the usual frozen ones, but more like the better frozen ones. Served with wedges, but still, it tasted bit soggy like its fries brothers. Overall the taste is not bad, but the portion is bit small. It did look big on pictures, but both the meat and the fish is rather "thin" so it may satisfy my wife, but not me. I only felt full after finishing all the fries and coleslaw.

Would I come back? Definitely, given the price of  most items here ranging from RM10-20 is really reasonable for a good selection and good taste. Taste is really up to par. But to call this great? There is still a far way to go.

Ratings: 3 half poink!
comments: extra poink for the price and combination. I prefer Hot Jack though....
