After our usual badminton session, we were looking for lunch and a friend recommended Jin Yi at Uptown. He said the coffee was good, but never tried meals there before.
Turns out the menu was full of burgers, which gives us an impression that their burgers were good.
Mushroom soup
The mushroom soup arrived first, as the appetizer. It was normal, nothing special but at least not the Campbell's type.
Latte
The drinks came next. As they were famous with their coffee, we ordered latte. It was sugarless! Everybody had to request for extra syrup for their latte to have some taste in it. There was a strong coffee smell, but it was quite a letdown that no sugar was added at all.
Cappuccino
Cappuccino was decent, at least. Nice touch to the presentation.
Cheeseburger (Beef)
Beef burgers were first to arrive, starting with the cheese burgers. As you can see, it comes with chips, pickles, and some vegetables. The burger was juicy and you could tell it was fresh patties. However, it was not worth the price of RM25 per set (inclusive of a drink).
Mushroom Cheeseburger (Beef)
The mushroom cheeseburgers were next. It taste exactly like the cheeseburgers, but added with mushrooms. There wasn't much smell or taste from the mushroom, but it wasn't bad either.
Mutton burger
Mutton burger was OK, but too as juicy as the beef burgers.
Chicken Burger
Chicken burger was a little dry, but not too bad as well.
Fish & Chips
Fish and chips came last. Nothing much to shout about actually.
The waiter made a mistake when serving the burgers, when he accidentally told us that the burger was mutton instead of beef. My friend was happily eating the burger when another mutton burger arrived, and the waiter told us that the burger my friend was eating was a beef burger. My friend does not consume beef due to his religion, so you could imagine the shock on his face. In the end he settled for the chicken burger, given to him from another friend.
Apart from the mistake, service was generally slow and their coffee wasn't top notch. For a price of RM25+, this will not be a place we will visit in the future.
