RM1 Hot Plate

Yesterday, out of the blue, Hik suggested that we should go to Jusco Setiawangsa for dinner. In the midst of making a choice between KFC and Wendy’s, we saw this:



A long queue outside Boston café! What’s so special about the café that attracted so many customers? Look, they were even willing to wait while the other diners inside were slowly chewing their steak.

The banner tells it all. Sizzling Hot Plate for RM1, no hidden charge! 8-18June, which means it has just started on that day. Monday-Thursday. 12-3pm and 6-9pm.



Instead of jumping at the opportunity, suspicious thoughts instantly flooded my mind:

“No hidden charge but got terms and conditions is it?”

“They use rotten meat???”

“Impossible! Sure got something. Hmm. . .”

Hik was even more brilliant. He thought that the restaurant is cooking the hot plate with disposed pad to cast charms on their customers. Like the news we heard about Kepong Bakuteh. Wtfreak.

But anyhow, we still decided to take a risk. Apparently there are 4 choices, each for RM1! Really.


3 add-on choices, each for RM3 only.



You must be thinking, wouldn’t they be making a loss by charging RM1? Well, the truth is, on normal days, the café is rarely crowded, and business must be tough having so many competitors gathered at the same place. So this promotion aims to introduce their food to us, at the same time earn from your side order (for example, your drinks) and from their service charge which can at least contribute to their rental. A supposedly win-win situation.

But what I see is, those Malays ordered RM1 hot plate without even the add-on. And they ordered plain water! Goodness. Really so kiam siap meh. LOL.

Grilled Lamb Chop. Tastes good =)



See, not bad riGht? That’s my favourite type of thin fries, like those in McD!



Mix Fruit Salad.



Mushroom soup with garlic bread. I recommend this. The soup is yummy!



Beef Steak. I waited quite long for this. Even people from the next table who came much later got their food before me. Hik said because I’m not their priority. Jeez so racist.



Since it’s RM1, we decided to order another two more from the menu. Too bad the fish fillet was out of stock. So we merely settled for grilled chicken fillet.



This is called “Aladdin Chicken Salad”. ROFL I was the one who made it, if you have realized XD



Total payment: RM17.20! Because we ordered apple juice instead of plain water. Hiak hiak. Next time bring your own bottle XD Gotta visit the place again before the promotion ends. So, to repay my kindness for spreading the news, bring me along if you’re going!



Remember, the promotion ends at 18th of June! Teehee.
