There are very few things that get my goat that badly that I have to blog about it, write in to them and / or the press. I’ve already sent an email to this eatery in question and still feel that I need to blog it out. If you have been following the blog, I seldom do ‘bad’ reviews of anything but this really took the cake.

First up, I am more the sort who eats to live. If it is ‘edible’, I’d usually just survive with it. But yesterday’s experience at Kitchen Mogu Mogu was so bad, it is impossible to keep quiet. We should have taken the visual cue of the near empty eatery (what at FEP during lunch hour crowd?!) to have taken our business elsewhere.

We ordered two meals, and ‘upsized’ one of them. When it came… the disaster started.

1. the iced green tea is completely tasteless. It is quite simply, coloured green water. That is cold.
2. the vegetables on our set was ‘leftover’ from the day before. The carrots and corn left a foul sour aftertaste and the cauliflower that was served in a big clump, was undercooked. Tasting very raw.
3. the miso soup was overtly salty, more so than even Yoshinoya.
4. the chawanmushi was laced with so much pepper you could not taste the egg at all.

And this consisted at least half the meal. Spoilt the appetite and the portions were quite pathetic. Until and unless they buck up, please take your business elsewhere.

SERIOUS. The concept of Japanese fast food is good. But not with the standard they offer. In these times of recession, money can be MUCH better spent elsewhere.
