Simply ghastly. Looks like JB Malaysia. (No I never been to JB. I Ms. Atas.) Wise Guy said the atmosphere is very relaxed, he loved it. But the tables are at the back alley and they erected a marquee over a patch of soil and gravel to put more tables (see photos above). Wow, I admire the prostitutes sashaying \u00a0on the gravel. Got an uncle came up to me and ask me how much?! My Channel bag is real ok!\u00a0After a while, I got to relac, the atmosphere under the stars, al fresco, you know, quite atas. <del>Reminds me of my kampung life.\u00a0<\/del><\/p>\n<p>You should see the toilet.

The dishes come in S, M, L. You can see from my sexy S-shape body that I am S!<\/p>\n<p>We ordered two specialties, <strong>butter pork ribs<\/strong> ($10) and <strong>Fried Garlic Chicken<\/strong> ($15). The <strong>ribs<\/strong> were so-so; although lean, it wasn&#8217;t crispy or buttery enough. The Garlic Chicken was <em>sedap<\/em>! Superbly garlic and not-dry.<\/p>\n<p>Hookerlily, Wise Guy&#8217;s slut friend who wanna snatch men from my target market, liked the <strong>3-egg spinach<\/strong> ($8). OohOoohOooh, maneater also know how to eat veg. But I thought it was too starchy, and no enough eggs to bring out the proper taste of the dish.<\/p>\n<p>The<strong> salted-york prawns<\/strong> ($10) were average but the <strong>claypot tofu<\/strong> ($8) was a surprising winner. The tofu was very tasty. Aiya, I cannot describe the dish properly, coz I am a maneater, only tasted a bit of it.<\/p>\n<p>Another surprise winner is the <strong>curry fish head<\/strong> ($20). The fish was fresh and tender like my boobs (real ones, not like Hookerlily&#8217;s), and although the curry was not the assam curry that we like, but it was spicy and strong. As strong as my Australian expat boyfriend. Very tasty. (<span style=\"color:#ff0000;\">Editor&#8217;s Note<\/span>: Ms Atas&#8217;s boyfriend was originally from Chennai. He&#8217;s Indian but she keeps referring him as &#8220;Australian.&#8221;)<\/p>\n<p>The servers were very friendly and nice although they looked tired.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, while the food was delish, it was meagre. However, I think I&#8217;ll bring my Australian boyfriend here for dinner one day, to show him I&#8217;m with him not for his money!! This place is good, cheap and has a kampung feel.
