Hi everyone,
I would like to share my dining experience with you. Today I have visited Station 1 Melaka Raya. I have ordered Freddo Mocha and Grilled Chicken with Mushroom Sauce. My drink is pretty good. It is a coffee based drink with some cocoa powder, chocolate chips and topped with whipped cream. The appearance look rather tempting. As I am not a big fan of sweet stuff, I would say that it is a little too sweet for me with the chocolate chip and sweetened whipped cream. However, I do like the combination. It has rich coffee taste with a slight of chocolatey flavour.
As for my food, I am truly disappointed. At first, the presentation seems fine. Well, I was actually searching for the sliced mushroom as the picture on the menu showing big chuck of mushroom on the sauce. Now then I truly understand what does it mean by "Illustration purposes only"...lol...I didn't care too much about mushroom and I started to dig in. The chicken was totally over cooked and it is kind of dry. The texture is like eating a meatloaf. And the so called mushroom sauce have no taste at all. I just feel like it is a salted brown sauce. The combination of the chicken and the sauce turn out to be a great disaster on my plate. Not only the chicken taste bad, the corn doesn't taste good too. I don't think the chef putting in enough seasoning. The taste is so bland and the corn seems to have been in the kitchen for some time. Oh ya, the coleslaw. I would say that it is just an ordinary salad with really old cabbage. I would't say much about it as I personally doesn't like coleslaw that much. Lastly, the criss cut fries. This taste not bad for me. It has been fried well and it is crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. The worst nightmare started when I saw a strand of hair at the very last mouth. At that moment, I just feel like puking. I don't understand how can a chained restaurant like them have such poor hygiene.
If you are planning to hang around and have a chit chat with your friends and families, this place may not be too suitable. They have a live band performance during a certain time but I am not too sure of what is the exact timing. Just now when I was there around 9, they have just started. I have to shout so that my friend can hear me. But if you are looking for a place to relax your mind with some good music, this is definitely one of the good choices (but food is not recommended). The singers there have rather good voice. You can even dedicate a song to someone or to yourself. However, not all the songs they could sing.
Generally, the ambience is fine but the food is truly not up to expectation. I would not suggest anyone to try out the food here unless they have taken extra care on the hygiene issue. I believe no one would want to see something in their plate that is not suppose to be there.
Just my two cents. Thank you for reading...:)
