Welcome to newly-opened Primo's Cafe at Starparc Point, Setapak. The place that serves Dragon Balls (do they by any chance serve 7 balls?) as starters.
I never knew this place existed until Groupon told me. Hmm, would that explain why it was full house?
Even the drinks counter was super busy and rather disorganized i must say.
Browsing through the menu, it was quite an interesting one with lots of choices to choose from. Especially since the Groupon deal was for cash vouchers, we were free to eat whatever our stomachs desired.
Let's see how they price their meat!
I on the other hand, was greedy enough to order the Gentlemen Breakfast....for lunch. Why not, i've never had beans withdrawn from a bank before.
The drinks came. After a long wait.
On the other hand, the food only came after a tremendously long wait. Clearly, the kitchen and staff had failed to cope to a full house capacity.
Even Darren could not wait for his meal and decided that milk was to be his best friend that afternoon.
And then there was Mark and his 'feed me now or i will kill you' expression on his face.
Seriously, we waited for more than 45 minutes with some other tables already complaining due to incomplete servings, so much so that one poor fella would still be waiting for his food when the rest has already lapped up their plates clean. I also think i managed to catch one of the owners of this place in the photo below? She was the cashier for the day, plus i did not appreciate her gesture of kissing Darren on his cheek without a single apology on the terrible service that day.
And what about the food?
The feedback i got was (thank god!) it was quite good except that it was sometimes prepared in a sloppy manner. One thing though, i hated the fries that came with the burger. The oil tasted rancid and the color of the fries was truly unappealing. The chicken patty i heard was quite tasty and tender.
My 3 other friends ordered the pasta and they all tasted good, but small served.
My only comment; the inconsistent garnishing of their pasta shows the hastily prepared pasta by the kitchen.
Heck, a little garnish of parsley would certainly do the trick.
I was the victim of being the last one to be served. So much for ordering the breakfast set!
Except for the dull bland salad, the other components were tasty
Certainly hope the owners will kick the service up a few notches.Otherwise, they won't be seeing our happy faces here anymore.

Even Darren had lots to say about this place.
