Birthday Dinner @ Boat House Restaurant,TTDI!

Address: No 16, Lorong Rahim Kajai 14, Taman Tun Dr Ismail 60000 Kuala Lumpur

Business Hours: Mon to Fri - 11am to 3pm, 6pm to 12am, Sat - 12pm to 4pm, 6pm to 1 am, Closed on Sundays.

On special occasions; be it birthdays or gatherings, searching around thinking hard for a good venue to accommodate a big group with great ambience and quality food can be tough at times.

Usually we just pick some random place based on the feedback we read from blogs and online reviews. Undeniably blogs are now the main search stream people go for; be it searching for food, travel tips and practically everything.

It was an old friend’s birthday in April and hence we gathered at the Boat house restaurant in Taman Tun for dinner on a Saturday night. Cuisine that night was Western Food and we were scratching our heads thinking what to order from the menu.

I liked the ambience of the place; though not big but rated comfortable and cosy for diners. Food was something I didn't quite fancy as my order was horrendous though the rest found theirs were rather edible.

TOTAL DAMAGE that night = RM 700
(NOOOOOOOOO!!!! So expensive) I reckon a 10 course Chinese dinner would have been a better option!

Overall I would say the ambience out beat the food and if you’re looking for a cosy corner with not so high expectation of the FOOD, go ahead.

I told you the ambience was lovely... dim lightings with large mirror on the wall, cosy sofas and you see large sheets of white paper over the table cloth for easy cleaning, which later became my drawing palette! :P

Sizzling chicken RM 35.80 which was soooo dissapointing. Dearie tried avoding the sauce and I tasted it personally... The sauce simply do not go with the chicken at all... WEIRD! It seems you're eating a meal drenched in soup instead of sauce, I have to say total crap (apologies)

Carbonara spaghetti... Judging from the color, it was plain and somehow didn't bring the true taste of Carbonara to live...
