Screaming Bananas

Yesterday, my company organised a luncheon for the staffs. The lunch is to celebrate some colleagues 's birthday and also farewell :S

The company decided to have our lunch at a place call Screaming Bananas. I wonder why the bananas are screaming... hmmm... anyway, this restaurant-cafe is situated at Block C , Phileo Damansara 1. This is a double storey restaurant-cafe, where the main entrance , kitchen and the cashier counter is on the ground floor, while upper floor is mainly tables and chairs to serve customers. The environment of the restaurant is quite ok... Good place to go for lunch where u have some company celebration and u want to do it nearby your office. This fusion food restaurant served variety of food, from nasi lemak to lamb chop and crepes.


Anyway, for my lunch, i ordered a plate of nasi goreng kampung. There is a fried egg in sunny side up style (bull's eye) on top of the fried rice. There are some small prawns, lots of long beans and eggs that fried together with the rice. The nasi goreng kampung is served together with some keropok, sambal belacan, ikan bilis , cut long beans and few slices of cucumber.


Nasi Goreng Kampung

However, the taste of the fried rice is not good!!!!. The rice is cold, not even warm!!!. The rice is also very oily!!!! Very unhealthy!!! The bull's eye is so hard. I didn't even finish it. I stop after my second bite. The sambal belacan was ok, quite spicy. The keropok and anchovies were quite crispy. Kinda disappointed...I only enjoyed eating the keropok and the cucumber..... :(


Jin Han's Rice with Kapitan Curry

One of my colleague, Jin Han order Rice with Kapitan Curry... Jin Han commented that the chicken is very hard! The curry doesn't smell good. The dishes is also cold!! sigh...


Andrew Lai's Lamb Chop with Tomato Mint Relish

While my other colleague, Andrew Lai had Lamb Chop with Tomato Mint Relish. I steal one of the potato wedges to try, it was cold also but the taste is ok. As for the lamb chop, Andrew mentioned that it was just ok...

However, there is something that i need to praise about this restaurant, which is the staff. The waiter and waitress of the restaurant is very friendly and soft spoken. They are also very fast in responding to our needs. They greet us politely and with a smile :) !!!!

OK... time to rate the place...

p/s : Now i know why the bananas are screaming... food is bad...food is bad...

  • Environment : 6/10
  • Food : 4.5 /10
  • Service : 7.5/10
  • Price : average a main cost with drink is about rm12-rm18 per person.
