It has been quite a while since the family went out together, other than to Grandma's place for dinner. Went to Mr Prata to have, what else but, prata. We have been wanting to go to this place since some Channel 8 show recommened it few months prior but somehow or rather, it only took us till now to go and have it tried. Frankly speaking, the food there is really disappointing, a far cry from how the show had decribed it to be. I tried mushroom murtaba and i feel as though i'm having onion roll for their servings of it is humongous as compared to the mushrooms. The excessive onions not only adds a litter bitterness to the taste, it stinks our mouth badly. Other than that, the curry wasn't strong enough AND the teh tarik ice i had was so diluted even before the ice melted. Utterly disappointed. But the nasi briyani did managed to give the place a few credit for the chicken is really tender and juicy. The setting of the place is also rather unique cause they use garden chairs and tables and we seems to be eating at a backyard, but slightly more dirty and squeezy. Definitely different from the normal prata shops we eat in with only stools and round tables and of course, coffee shop settings. This place wins by its setting but i don't think it matter much cause good food can overshadow a place setting anytime, especially since we're only eating pratas! Anyhow, food comes secondary. Being able to spend time with the family is what matter most. Though i may be rather temperamental at times, i really love spending quality time with the family. And friends! Dinner's at grandma's and though there's no hugs and kisses, i do miss grandma during her one week trip to Xiamen. She may not be the best cook in the world but nothing can beat home-cooked dishes i guess. I seriously can't stand that weekend is drawing near so fast and it's back to work tomorrow. How dampening!
