Hello 2010

Farewell 2009 

We braved the shopping mall madness and went to The Gardens, Mid Valley for a New Year's Day dinner. I didn't cook any porridge for the kids so they get to eat something else besides the same old same old chuk chuk. We landed at Tony Roma's mainly because the kids were more accustomed to Western food and I had a voucher for RM10 off the entire bill. The restaurant was not overly crowded and we were promptly led to our table to be seated. The kids were given activity sheets and a basket of crayons to keep them occupied. The kids' menu was also printed on the activity sheets.

What we ordered : Asian style salad with crispy chicken (half size) RM14.90. This dish was very yummy and tastes like yee sang minus the fish but with very crunchy chicken slices. The sauce was tangy and it was a huge serving although it was supposed to half portion. I also ordered a strawberry lemonade RM7.90 which was very refreshing.

We also ordered the soup of the day in a bowl for RM5.90 (special promo when purchased with any sandwich sets). The sandwich set which we got was a chicken cajun sandwich RM19.90.  Came with a heap of fries! We couldn't finished it although Evan loves to eat fries. I forgot to mentioned that we also had a complimentary appetizer : bread with flavoured butter. We also had a tall glass of warm H20

All in all a satisfying meal - highly recommended for families with kids. The staff are helpful with the baby chairs and booster seats.... plus they also give out balloons and activity sheets..... and they even have their own waterproof bib!!! Total bill came to RM45.90. On weekdays Mon-Wed, Tony Roma's has a Kids Eat Free promotion something like the one at Chili's. Their kids menu is also recommended with vege sticks appetizer, main meal & dessert.

In case you are wondering where we went to in the morning of 1 Jan 2010, it's IKEA! We went there to purchase 2 Billy bookcases to store the ever-growing collection of children's books at home!

Happy New Year!
