5 /5 W Regina (Traveling DiDi): The restaurant has a store front in a strip mall.
FOOD - The "Malaysian Curry Hot Soup" tasted great! It was literally smoking. Medium spice (the other choice was hot) was just the right amount of flavorful heat for my taste buds. The broth contained plenty of proteins and some vegetables, although I do not recall eating corn. Corn is on the list of ingredients. It was kind of light on mushrooms, too.
Not much ATMOSPHERE. Internal layout is more efficient than emotional. The place gives off no vibes. No dazzle, aside from the food.
Two ladies and an infant (looked like 3 generations of family) occupied a table. There were no other patrons when I arrived. A couple of people stopped by to pick up Boba tea with little to no food. By the time I left, server Iesly had seated a couple and a family of four, respectively.
SERVICE - Iesly was attentive without being too pushy. I kept the menu and made a comment about the "macarons" pictured on the dessert page. But Iesly brought the check without asking if I wanted dessert. Upselling in the service industry should be second nature. "You want fries with that..?" What can I get you for dessert? Earlier, you mentioned macrons. How many would you like?"
Iesly bagged up my leftovers. I ate a small bowl of soup for dinner and took the rest to work the next day.
I call this food: Asian-Inspired-French-Occupied-Americana!
Mmmm... so good! I will be back.
