Meng Kitchen 铭厨房 — Restaurant in Johor

I don’t know how they get all the good FAKE reviews. I want to give ZERO STAR if i could!!! Lets talk about food 1st - Signature KL hokkien mee taste totally off. Its an insult to authentic KL hokkien mee!!!Charge $9 with no ingredients at all? What a joke. Luckily i buy only 1 item test water 1st. Service - can make me wait up to 20 to 30 minutes for just 1 order because i was told they cook one BIG BATCH at a time meaning they wait for a few orders to come in then cook together ( plain lazy to cook plate by plate no wonder the taste is a JOKE) seriously unbelievable!!! end up others who ordered later than me get served 1st because staffs were all busy chit chatting fooling around. No systematic order. If the food is nice i don’t mind to wait this long but is atrociously unpalatable!!! Simply waste of my time!!! Piece of advice to anyone who come across my review. Just Close eyes Anyhow go to any other nearby similar restaurant u can easily find better food with better taste ,services ,quality and prices. THIS KIND OF FNB BUSINESS IS NOT WORTHY OF OUR SUPPORT!!! AVOID AND BOYCOTT THIS RESTAURANT AT...

Just sharing my bad experience here:

We (2 persons) walk in the restaurant in the evening for dinner, all tables for 2 were occupied and we don’t mind to wait awhile. But the lady who works there kept on pestering us to sit outside of the restaurant which obviously we don’t want to. It’s really annoying. She said ‘You can sit outside whole day no problem’. We were like, who wants to sit outside with car pollution and people smoking all day while pay the same price? We appreciate it if she can talk with some common sense to other people next time. At the end, we waited for a table for two with very little support from the staff. Second, during payment they use child labour to do the job. And they were busy talking to each other, arguing between the elder and younger brothers who should do the job while we stupidly standing at the cashier waiting for their decision. We did not complain upfront since they are still immature. But we don’t think that other restaurant staffs are doing the right thing. TBH, no next time for us as their customer service...

We ordered kang kong belacan, crab meat fish maw soup and nyonya fish fillet. There was no waiting time and food arrived quite fast. Service is good. My only comment is regarding the food itself which is, for a restaurant that serves food, so very disappointing.

Kang Kong Belacan was on the oily side, but taste wise and mouth feel are so-so. It was edible at least.

Nyonya Fish Fillet was said to be asam pedas style, but I dont know where the taste of asam pedas went inside this dish, because I could not taste a single asam pedas. It was more nutty, but fish was good, though not as fresh.

Crab Meat Fish Maw soup was an absolute nightmare. The crab meat was ARTIFICIAL. Yah, need I say more? Fish maw portion so very little, so stingy. Price is insanely expensive for an empty bowl of gravy-like water, with artificial crab meat that probably sells for less than RM10 at the grocery store.

I will not come again, but service was good. That I...
