Cold dish was a valid complain, but hating on fish sauce and sambal? Girl, wake up, you are just not up for southeast asian cuisine, these are the essence of most southeast asian dishes.
You should appreciate and respect her honesty , in fact fish sauce and sambal smell like smelly unwashed socks because of the fermented protein of the seafood in it, just as Vieux Boulogne cheese in France. She has every right to state her opinion and not to be influenced by others on social media. Just because some foreigners claimed that sambal, fish sauce and durian are good , it doesn't mean everybody on this planet will agree with that positive opinion. Taste is a very subjective and personal issue.
Well I've eaten there and it was awesome. Some food probably didn't go well with her taste buds but most Asians are very used to it. I really doubt she was honest at all.. 🤣🤣 coming from her, nah next . I'll make a video to atleast counter her the next time I dine again at Uncle Rogers restaurant..
For her to even say the restaurant is nit fancy like Gordon Ramsay restaurant or Hell's Kitchen is really pretty dumb and you already know her level of stupidity. How couldn't she even compare to Gordon Ramsay when this restauran is just a normal restaurant only. She really doesn't know how to compare. I don't see her honesty here .. she done move along... Next
taste is subjective and aquired. and he didn't shame her or anything. he just said thiis was the essence of southeast asian food. if she can express her opinion, then so can he. and taste is aquired, so just because you don't like something you first try, that it's bad
As per my understanding, the restaurant is situated in an affluent neighborhood, comparable to Beverly Hills. Consequently, the prices are likely to be quite high.
The location is indeed very expensive, but the food should be much better given the price and setting. We've eaten at various places in Pavilion, from the underground food court to other restaurants, and never encountered issues like this before. During one of our live streams, we visited Paris Baguette with our followers and also had an unpleasant experience there
Multiple branches are opening soon at various neighborhoods. Looking forward to the one at neighborhood mall IPC, Mutiara Damansara. If prices are still the same then... /ggwp The business isn't gonna last long.
As a Malaysian, i can say you're Malaysianised. Respect to Uncle Roger's investors for seeing opportunity and this will indeed be a tourist attraction (trap). But he has his fan base. Malaysians won't go here for the food lah, i doubt Uncle Roger would himself la if he had a choice. Get your good share of Malay food everywhere else in Ampang, can try Hening KL, Hidang KL and Sudu (Behind RISDA building) all in Ampang area. Or otherwise for everyday good Malaysian food just head to your closes Q Bistro outlet for your nasi lemak, nasi goreng, oxtail soup, roti canai, etc. Should also try go on the train routes one day. I come from Subang Jaya, we have loads of typical Subang food as well, can take a stop at lrt ss15 station or at Taipan lrt stop. There's Huang in ss17 for good shaved soya iced desserts for good value. For typical local style seafood dinner outing like locals head to Lala Chong. There's an outlet in Ara Damansara.
Definitely, not so honest la. If you can see all the food is there at the same time and not touch. Fry noodle is hot. They waited for all the food to arrive. In super strong AC, within a few minutes, the food might be cold. Bandung la is not with carnation milk, if you look at the colour of the milk, it's not very pink. So, it's done with fresh milk and rose syrup.
Too expensive. The restaurant owner is just using nigel's name to make a profit. So it may not last long unless there are discount vouchers for frequent visitors
@voyagesdiary I doubt that concept can work because malaysians on average, earn between 700 to 1000usd per month. Gdp per capita is just 13k usd per year on average. Even when they get certificate for halal to bring in malays or muslims, still too expensive. The famous Damascus shawarma is less than 20 ringgit. There are also Muslim Chinese buns (pau) or restaurants at chinatown which do not break the bank for a family of 4. Malays usually are cost conscious, so they will eat at kampung baru. As a Chinese malaysian, I will probably eat at ICC Pudu which has a wide variety of Chinese food at the food court. Or even food courts at malls are quite good.
yes uncle roger is an idiot and a piece of scum.using his fame and reputation to take advantage of people and cheat people.his food and prices are shit !
@@voyagesdiary true, but I believe then they should focus on on the “real” positive (ie ambience , theme of the restaurant , service , presentation, price is on the higher side but need to consider location )rather then to say “best fried rice” , which is clearly not true.
Im not a big fan of uncle roger and i dont doubt the food sucks there... but i do agree with one of the comments that said you're not ready for south east asian cuisine.. or even a food critic.... if you wanna make videos about food... you best be trying out everything... fish sauce and sambal is some of the main ingredient put in their dishes
Tried at Mytown branch, same problem the fried rice is cold, dry and too salty with MSG. Really self proclaimed best fried rice in town. Hawkers and uncle soon so much better and cheaper.
To all FnB patrons, please dont waste your hard earned money eating here. You will be utterly dissapointed. I myself a Malaysian would not spend my money in this restaurant. Lets see how long this restaurant stays on business.
Jealous monkey. He came back to Malaysia just to open his first restaurant (basically promoting his country) when he could have opened it somewhere and my guy's just here praying his restaurant goes down when his target audience is not even YOU. Typical loser mentality at its finest
yes I agree with you.uncle roger is a cheater and scammer, using his fame and reputation to take advantage of people and cheat them.what an idiot he is.
I don't understand. Why does Uncle Roger open a restaurant? He is just a comedian, not a chef, he only complains out for jokes and other stuff, why take so seriously? Businesses run by comedians don't last long unless Uncle Roger seeks help from Gordan Ramsey
From other reviews, they'll serve you cold fried rice, waste an hour of your time after seating, expensive, and very slow service..It's their tactic..They even removed the negative reviews..
I heard they cook the fried rice in big wok and big batches to cater to the big crowd, that's why the quality isn't there and the reason why the fried rice is cold. Fried rice is the best when you cook 1 plate at a time.
@@voyagesdiary cool. Did u get black n white t shirt too?? Did they sell any cap. I dun see at all. Hope I got chance dine in his restaurant. Long queue.
Ouch! The prices alone would scared me. Pretty sure prices in Jalan Alor are a lot cheaper. Just a stone throw from the Pavillion. Better still, go to any pasar malam or Petaling Street.
Am I converting this wrong? Doesn't that come out to like less than 28 usd? You'd be lucky to get a snack here in florida for less than that let alone a sit down I must be misunderstanding I'm sure. In London or somewhere lucky to have one meal. These do not look small I'm sure its just differences in regions or the conversion tool i typed in the price must be wrong? How much is the total in euros this must be my app? Seemed cheap but im sure I just misunderstood the totals.
Never compare the food price cross the countries. They do not earn that much. If everywhere is Malaysia selling for 5 dollars and you selling for 10. This is overpriced.
The price thing should just go out of the window, it's pavi. that is soft compared to other foods in there The price per quality tho, is a different thing. yes, it definitely got issues. I don't think there's ever a complaint about the foods being cold before. this is the first. could be a mistake or something. unless we see a pattern I won't comment further The taste, obviously won't be THE absolute best. he's not even a chef in a first place. he's still very young in this culinary business world. small details like the hard rice and stuff could be from cooking it in a huge wok, so the heat and texture won't be equally nice. Finally, I think this would be more acceptable in other countries like in the west. cause the culture and standards ain't the same for fried rice. in Malaysia, it's a basic food with options everywhere. you can't helped to compare it with others with lower price
This video seriously needs to go viral and let everyone know. My parents went there a few days ago while they were on holiday at KL, and they said it was overpriced and disgusting. My mom had asked for less salt in one of the dishes, and instead of adding less salt, I believe they took her words to add more salt somehow…(for further confirmation regarding the salty rice, my dad tried it too and completely agrees that it was more salty than his normal fried rice) and the prices in the menu, they’re outrageous!! Thank you for the honest review, most RUclipsrs are biased with their ratings, possibly because Uncle Roger was in their videos for fame.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on our experience. Based on what we've seen, this is a place we wouldn't recommend at the moment. If you found this video helpful, please help us go viral by sharing it on other social media platforms-it would mean a lot to us! We also have a feeling RUclips might be penalizing this video somehow since it's getting a lot fewer views than our other videos, despite having a lot of comments. Your support in spreading the word can really make a difference! 😀❤🍽
Should try restaurant kam heong pj fried rice business hour 8am-2pm or till finish Or uncle soon fried rice worth the money and they fried 1 plate at a time
Peopl’s expectations are the problem. It's not all the restaurant. Its ridiculous for people to complain about wait times when a restaurant just opened. That happens when any popular business opens. You're not the only ones waiting. And the prices of the food are consider the location & etc. The McDonald's in Beverly Hills is more expensive than the next one a mile away in a different city.
Cold fried rice? for a simple dishes like that it can be categorized as cheating and not acceptable in any southeast asian country. I prefer to cook fried rice myself or go to a regular shop or stall where you can see the chef cooking in front of you and it's definitely better. LMAO and the funny thing is, they use the word "Fuiyoh" including "Best Fried Rice in Town" is a very bad claimant. Even though I live nearby I never knew of their existence. Happy hunting guys, Enjoy your foodie travel!
Ain't nothing scam about that price. for a pavilion, it's on affordable side. I swear, people who said this never eats in pavi. it's expensive for normal standard but you don't put normal standard for pavillion. they're like different world. deal with it
Looking at ingredients used. It looks underwhelming and overpriced. Still nowhere near all time best from Super Noodle House (RM5 [give it 200% more on inflation for today's pricing]) back in the old days. Wish this restaurant is still around. Go to the Indian one at Boustead Food Court (entrance via Lorong Ceylon, lift to 8th floor just next to car park entrance) around 7.30am. You will be shocked at the taste for RM4. Lunch time at around 12pm got good food from Chinese and Indian as well. Oh, this food court opens only on working days.
@@voyagesdiary It will be a very long post sharing all of it. Here is some. Medan Selera Boustead (Boustead Food Court) - Still Bukit Bintang area. Wisma Boustead located opposite of Holiday Inn Express. Unfortunately, only staff is allowed for front entrance at Jalan Raja Chulan side. Back entrance is available for outsiders. Entrance via Lorong Ceylon, Wisma Boustead car park block. Lift to 8th floor just next to car park entrance. Indian for both breakfast (7.30am+) and lunch (12pm+). Chinese for lunch. Indian sells some noodle dishes, fried rice and some toppings (don't forget the sambal) for breakfast. Mixed rice for lunch. Chinese sells a variety of soup with rice (ABC soup that has carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, onions and chicken is my favorite), claypot chicken rice, hotpan noodles and some dishes. Opens only on working days. Also, there is chinese temple next to this building that sells chinese mixed rice for lunch. Opens on Monday to Thursday (working days only). Nasi Lemak - This one is easy. You can find it with google map and Grab. Wanjo at Kampung Baru and Village Park at Damansara Utama, Uptown (quite a distance away, it is available on Grab Food though) . There is also East Malaysian dishes like Nasi Kerabu and Nasi Dagang from Kak Som restaurant just at opposite side of Wanjo. Tempoyak (Fermented durian. Usually served with catfish) - Kak Nik Patin House at Jalan Klang Lama (also called Old Klang Road). Try Gulai (a type of curry) Patin Tempoyak for lighter, Pais Patin (BBQ catfish with tempoyak sambal) for stronger taste. This food can be controversial due to durian as one of the ingredients and it can be very spicy. The rest is Nyonya (Peranakan) food, Chinese Muslim mee tarik (pulled noodles). I'm refreshing my own list again for KL city area due to many old timers are gone. Unless you are fine with pricey restaurants that is overpriced but still good. Madam Kwan and Tea Garden are the examples. Cantonese noodles from Madam Kwan is great and dry mee siam from Tea garden is addictive. Both can be found at Pavilion KL. I heard ICC Pudu got some great food. Chicken rice balls is one of them. There are some Michelin star restaurants too. Some of the shops on other districts of KL if you are fine with traveling here and there.
Fr ,as a local you can get nasi goreng at rm1.50 ,scoop yourself (self service),as much as you want,with fried egg add rm1.00,with fried chicken add rm3 (no fried egg), Location?local self made stall by roadside in industrial area,just need business license you can sell anywhere you want by roadside,no rent at all Uncle Roger is way too expensive 😅
It all about location, even roti boy in klcc can be closed to the rental issues, even though they are one of the most high sale store among roti boy store
I get egg fried rice, on top the egg is hot, the rice underneath is cold. Totally no wok hei. They probably use a too big plate with small amount of fried rice, then wait for egg to fry and slap on top expecting it to warm the entire plate of rice. Mind you I went during peak hour instead of the early opening hours.
Should not go now, too many people, should go after few months, so we can know the food real quality, and the price in Pavillion is consider cheap tbh, even fast food is expensive there
I won't think I'll go there to try, too far for me, but nobody twists your arms and legs to go to his restaurant. So, IMO, either you go or not, it's entirely up to you. STFU if you don’t want to go, or you think it's too expensive, no need to badmouthing him. Simple, right?
I feel like its the problem with Mr Beast, when Beast Burger came out, the burgers were raw because they were getting order after order, and of course it’s only been 2 weeks but of course you also have to consider staff, and cooks, the cooks can be beginners for all we know, so of course I’d say give it time, and also some are sellouts, Roger is new to the business ring, so give it time, he’ll adapt and also speed had the thing shut down because of his fans, so of course he probably got it warm because the kitchen wasn’t handling a whole lot, and who complains on sold out stuff, of course the brownie and ice cream will have ice cream because it’ll be lesser and easier, and of course it’s handling with rush hours so people maybe order more of one sauce then the other, and also who compares comedian to pro chef
i can safely say for sure that "uncle roger" restaurant is highly over rated , i understand the price since it in pavalion but what if i tell u that u can get the same food/taste that even better by going to those street chinese hawkers in klang for a fraction of the price.
If you go to our lives you can see we went to guangzhou, hong kong, bangkok and macao the past two months. We just decide what to share on our twitch account and what do put on our youtube account
The guy is a comedian, I never found anything he produced is extremely funny, I casually click on his videos once a month. The Asian food looks mediocre at its best. I tried so many Asian food, the dishes there doesn’t impress me one bit 😂
Thanks for the honest review. The spaghetti is a must if u go there. And the appetizers are really good. But fried rice is a hit or miss. When it comes to service it's horrible hope they improve it.
Well the price you are paying : That Nigel vibe (I dont know why you guys so gangho about him) : 50% Pavilion with aircon : 30% Your social media hype : 10% That tissue paper with the word Fuyoh! : 5% That fried rice : 5% You are welcome.......
One more thing to add which cannot be seen on video due to noise cancelling microphones. The very very very loud Britney spears and backstreet boys music playing in the background. Maybe a way to make people eat faster
You'll get it back from what you've done. Same as Uncle Roger. He gave honest review to other restaurant FnB. Now he deserve honest review for his restaurant FnB. 😂😂😂
I rather you order a plate of chicken ayam goreng from a nearby "mamak" restaurant and additional money to get yourself a nice pulling tea brew , and perhaps a little more extra to get a plate of "roti canai". I will be looking at Uncle Roger following Jamie Oliver's footstep in restaurant closure within a year.... I can bet you they will try to add a free cheap drink , and tell you it's a grand promotion when that happens. LOL.
video started complaining about a very popular restaurant opening 30 minutes late. even more wild is the wait for the food. or all the comments below about having a bad experience just like us
fried rice by thai hawker food in malaysia is even better than UR. only cost less than 10 ringgit a plate. whoever try UR is paying through their nose for a lousy meal.
Damn..24bucks for a plate of cold fried rice??? The kitchen should at least reheat it in the microwave before serving to cover the tracks of it is fried long time ago... Haha
Uncle Roger's restaurant is not an authentic Chinese restaurant. The food is not cooked by Chinese chefs and not served by Chinese. They use mostly frozen and only fresh vegetables. This restaurant is not funded by Chinese let alone Uncle Roger himself. Not intending to be racist but authenticity requires honesty from a genuine soul. Sorry Uncle Roger but your restaurant will fail miserably.
Haven't tried before, but I believed it's worth trying. The haters should try having half of your salary go to charity instead of keep criticising others. Then you will know the value of others. You can say whatever u wana say doesn't mean you can insult others and create hate here in RUclips. Say something nice and use better choice of words pls.
Go ahead and try it-nobody is stopping you. Criticism is real, and we get roasted in our videos all the time. Uncle Roger, a great comedian, made his fame and fortune roasting people. But we didn’t like his restaurant. If we think something is bad, we’ll say it’s bad. If we think it’s good, we’ll say it’s good. Check out our other Malaysia eating videos-everyone gets their fair share of reviews. If you do want to try it, we suggest avoiding Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.
The thing is people don't mind spending the money "IF" the food is delicious and cooked right, to be honest i can find much better and a more delicious fried rice and cheaper and a roadside stall. Basically you are just paying for His name sake " Uncle Roger" . Look i ain't hating on him he just should stick to what his good at which is comedy. I like your honesty keep it up Fam....
Uncle roger should take note of your review... cold and crunchy rice is a no no. I seen so many reviews that just praised the fried rice dishes albeit the price... really bias reviews. By the way, just to complement you, you really look good for your age 😀 early 40s I presume
Thank you for watching. Sometimes people assume that paying more means better quality, but that's not always the case. Just because something is expensive doesn't mean it brings more value. It’s about finding the balance between cost and quality, and sometimes a cheaper product can be just as good or better if it meets your needs. Always look for why something is priced the way it is before deciding!
No we did not. After waiting so long for that rice the husband wanted to leave especially knowing what he had to pay. We took it as a loss. we do hope the kitchen gets their stuff together
Uncle Roger give a happy vibe. However most of the employees at the restaurant looks sloppy and doesn’t bring out the vibes of Uncle Roger. It’s quite negative
That's so overpriced,, honestly for me,,,and then,,the honest reviews,,making me thinking twice to go there now,,food served cold,, that's problem mate,,,hope uncle roger fix this
Me and my friends from Singapore travel over to Uncle Roger's restaurant and dine in. We only can say... THE FOOD ARE NOT UP TO STANDARD!! DISAPPOINTED!!
So sorry as Malaysian this is disappointing, Fried Rice should never be served cold, it's always fried fresh upon order and it will definitely taste bad the moment it becomes cold especially when there is aircon it gets even colder than room temperature 🥶. In fact for us it is allowed to cancel the order or request waiter to remake a new one if a dish supposed to be hot yet served cold. I think Uncle Roger didn't plan on the outcome much in terms of management. A lot of chinese restaurants have workers who works extremely fast and from the video the staff looks kinda overwhelmed and not working as fast thus the food gets cold so quick in serving delay. Definitely needs more staff and manager to keep track of speed.

This is The Pavilion. You’re dining at a high-end shopping mall, which is why the food is expensive-it's as simple as that.
It should also be properly cooked. Not the first time we ate at the pavillion but the first time we got cold food at Pavillion
Wow
What a way to justify the price !! 😅😅

Too expensive. The restaurant owner is just using nigel's name to make a profit. So it may not last long unless there are discount vouchers for frequent visitors
Or they will open more restaurants in cheaper parts of town while still charging pavillion prices

121 ringgit is like basically an hour and a half of mom wage work. Not that expensive if you're from the States. Really cheap.

No need Gordon lah, just bring Chef Wan
Tried at Mytown branch, same problem the fried rice is cold, dry and too salty with MSG. Really self proclaimed best fried rice in town. Hawkers and uncle soon so much better and cheaper.
Complaint to kpdnkk ..price and quality taste not very well..there can shutdown scam hawker
People be hatin just for clicks and views. Leave uncle Roger alone
He should stick to comedy which is amazing.
@@voyagesdiaryYeah his comedy is great but what’s wrong with him opening a restaurant? What’s with the hate sisturrrrr??!
Maybe some people are, but why would his restaurants be exempt from criticism?
Uncle Roger you have to fix your restaurant if you want your restaurant to last long
cold fried rice is a big problem
correct
They are all the same, Ramsay, Oliver UK so called Celeb Chefs. Profits now, forget quality and value for money.

Fried rice - must use overnight left over rice. However, it should not be cold though.
the rice is not cold anymore...Do have another tasting please 😆😅
The price thing should just go out of the window, it's pavi. that is soft compared to other foods in there
The price per quality tho, is a different thing. yes, it definitely got issues. I don't think there's ever a complaint about the foods being cold before. this is the first. could be a mistake or something. unless we see a pattern I won't comment further
The taste, obviously won't be THE absolute best. he's not even a chef in a first place. he's still very young in this culinary business world. small details like the hard rice and stuff could be from cooking it in a huge wok, so the heat and texture won't be equally nice.
Finally, I think this would be more acceptable in other countries like in the west. cause the culture and standards ain't the same for fried rice. in Malaysia, it's a basic food with options everywhere. you can't helped to compare it with others with lower price
Very professional comment. Not one sided and explained positive and negatives. However we did eat for cheaper and better at Pavillion.
So disappointed in this restaurant, I had to put leg down from chair haiyahh!
😂
This video seriously needs to go viral and let everyone know. My parents went there a few days ago while they were on holiday at KL, and they said it was overpriced and disgusting. My mom had asked for less salt in one of the dishes, and instead of adding less salt, I believe they took her words to add more salt somehow…(for further confirmation regarding the salty rice, my dad tried it too and completely agrees that it was more salty than his normal fried rice) and the prices in the menu, they’re outrageous!!
Thank you for the honest review, most RUclipsrs are biased with their ratings, possibly because Uncle Roger was in their videos for fame.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on our experience. Based on what we've seen, this is a place we wouldn't recommend at the moment.
If you found this video helpful, please help us go viral by sharing it on other social media platforms-it would mean a lot to us! We also have a feeling RUclips might be penalizing this video somehow since it's getting a lot fewer views than our other videos, despite having a lot of comments. Your support in spreading the word can really make a difference!
😀❤🍽
Its not salt, its all tons of msg
Should try restaurant kam heong pj fried rice business hour 8am-2pm or till finish
Or uncle soon fried rice worth the money and they fried 1 plate at a time
You can get all the same foods as here & much more if you just stay at any branded Hotel in Malaysia with breakfast included.
Can't wait to see Jamie Oliver's review of uncle Roger's restaurant😂
Peopl’s expectations are the problem. It's not all the restaurant. Its ridiculous for people to complain about wait times when a restaurant just opened. That happens when any popular business opens. You're not the only ones waiting. And the prices of the food are consider the location & etc. The McDonald's in Beverly Hills is more expensive than the next one a mile away in a different city.
1 Malaysian Ringgit = 0.23 USD; it might be expensive for Malaysia, but it's fair for the USA. Uncle Roger should've asked Auntie Liz for help.
Ok the cold dish i would understand bc of the timing you went but its just your taste buds that are not adapted to asian quisine
Pasar Malam is soooo good and 🔥 hot
So much better!
I won't eat pasar malam fried rice, poor quality. I eat at chinese restaurant Yong chou fried rice
@@keangwooichoo6138then you go there lah.. no need telling everyone! 🤪
Now I know what to expect.
Cold fried rice? for a simple dishes like that it can be categorized as cheating and not acceptable in any southeast asian country. I prefer to cook fried rice myself or go to a regular shop or stall where you can see the chef cooking in front of you and it's definitely better. LMAO and the funny thing is, they use the word "Fuiyoh" including "Best Fried Rice in Town" is a very bad claimant. Even though I live nearby I never knew of their existence. Happy hunting guys, Enjoy your foodie travel!
i love uncle roger but damn he's just scamming us all with these overpriced food😂
super funny person but the food is not there
Ain't nothing scam about that price. for a pavilion, it's on affordable side. I swear, people who said this never eats in pavi. it's expensive for normal standard but you don't put normal standard for pavillion. they're like different world. deal with it
Looking at ingredients used. It looks underwhelming and overpriced. Still nowhere near all time best from Super Noodle House (RM5 [give it 200% more on inflation for today's pricing]) back in the old days. Wish this restaurant is still around. Go to the Indian one at Boustead Food Court (entrance via Lorong Ceylon, lift to 8th floor just next to car park entrance) around 7.30am. You will be shocked at the taste for RM4. Lunch time at around 12pm got good food from Chinese and Indian as well. Oh, this food court opens only on working days.
That is crazy. Could you share a few places with directions or plaza names. We want to do a comparison very soon
@@voyagesdiary It will be a very long post sharing all of it. Here is some.
Medan Selera Boustead (Boustead Food Court) - Still Bukit Bintang area. Wisma Boustead located opposite of Holiday Inn Express. Unfortunately, only staff is allowed for front entrance at Jalan Raja Chulan side. Back entrance is available for outsiders. Entrance via Lorong Ceylon, Wisma Boustead car park block. Lift to 8th floor just next to car park entrance. Indian for both breakfast (7.30am+) and lunch (12pm+). Chinese for lunch. Indian sells some noodle dishes, fried rice and some toppings (don't forget the sambal) for breakfast. Mixed rice for lunch. Chinese sells a variety of soup with rice (ABC soup that has carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, onions and chicken is my favorite), claypot chicken rice, hotpan noodles and some dishes. Opens only on working days. Also, there is chinese temple next to this building that sells chinese mixed rice for lunch. Opens on Monday to Thursday (working days only).
Nasi Lemak - This one is easy. You can find it with google map and Grab. Wanjo at Kampung Baru and Village Park at Damansara Utama, Uptown (quite a distance away, it is available on Grab Food though) . There is also East Malaysian dishes like Nasi Kerabu and Nasi Dagang from Kak Som restaurant just at opposite side of Wanjo.
Tempoyak (Fermented durian. Usually served with catfish) - Kak Nik Patin House at Jalan Klang Lama (also called Old Klang Road). Try Gulai (a type of curry) Patin Tempoyak for lighter, Pais Patin (BBQ catfish with tempoyak sambal) for stronger taste. This food can be controversial due to durian as one of the ingredients and it can be very spicy.
The rest is Nyonya (Peranakan) food, Chinese Muslim mee tarik (pulled noodles). I'm refreshing my own list again for KL city area due to many old timers are gone. Unless you are fine with pricey restaurants that is overpriced but still good. Madam Kwan and Tea Garden are the examples. Cantonese noodles from Madam Kwan is great and dry mee siam from Tea garden is addictive. Both can be found at Pavilion KL. I heard ICC Pudu got some great food. Chicken rice balls is one of them. There are some Michelin star restaurants too. Some of the shops on other districts of KL if you are fine with traveling here and there.
@@voyagesdiary Did you get the details? Comment got deleted.
Yes, definitely did. Medan selara, wanjo, KAK Nik patin and many more. Sorry writing this response from the phone. But we have the all ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@voyagesdiary Welcome. Enjoy the food! Some correction for Kak Nik Patin House. Its located at Pantai district.
Her face.. I can’t stop laughing
Fr ,as a local you can get nasi goreng at rm1.50 ,scoop yourself (self service),as much as you want,with fried egg add rm1.00,with fried chicken add rm3 (no fried egg),
Location?local self made stall by roadside in industrial area,just need business license you can sell anywhere you want by roadside,no rent at all
Uncle Roger is way too expensive 😅
You can almost eat a whole week for one meal
Yup, that's right 😂👍@@voyagesdiary
It all about location, even roti boy in klcc can be closed to the rental issues, even though they are one of the most high sale store among roti boy store
Yeah, 19 years they were at kllc right?
you can ask for change if not satisfied with it.. Hope Uncle Roger can do the improvement.
Nasi goreng shouldn't be expensive..it must be tasty and reasonable price. But this one haiyahh
your honesty just save my wallet. TY
Anytime
I get egg fried rice, on top the egg is hot, the rice underneath is cold. Totally no wok hei. They probably use a too big plate with small amount of fried rice, then wait for egg to fry and slap on top expecting it to warm the entire plate of rice. Mind you I went during peak hour instead of the early opening hours.
Overpriced and overrated restaurant. The only way i would eat there is if someone else is paying for the meals.
Should not go now, too many people, should go after few months, so we can know the food real quality, and the price in Pavillion is consider cheap tbh, even fast food is expensive there
We don't think it will slow down for a while especially with holiday time coming
I won't think I'll go there to try, too far for me, but nobody twists your arms and legs to go to his restaurant. So, IMO, either you go or not, it's entirely up to you. STFU if you don’t want to go, or you think it's too expensive, no need to badmouthing him. Simple, right?
Logan Paul has Prime, MrBeast has Feastables, UncleRoger has over price restaurant, confirm all this influencer turn into cooperate sellout
They all cooperate to sellout. Just like when ishowspeed was doing backflips over some rice
Prime drink taste very good though, it has unique taste.
I feel like its the problem with Mr Beast, when Beast Burger came out, the burgers were raw because they were getting order after order, and of course it’s only been 2 weeks but of course you also have to consider staff, and cooks, the cooks can be beginners for all we know, so of course I’d say give it time, and also some are sellouts, Roger is new to the business ring, so give it time, he’ll adapt and also speed had the thing shut down because of his fans, so of course he probably got it warm because the kitchen wasn’t handling a whole lot, and who complains on sold out stuff, of course the brownie and ice cream will have ice cream because it’ll be lesser and easier, and of course it’s handling with rush hours so people maybe order more of one sauce then the other, and also who compares comedian to pro chef
Cardinal Mistake No 1...food served Must Not be Cold ..Haiya
And ice cream shouldn't be sold out 😂
The kitchen staff really needs some serious re-training in cooking especially in the art of preparing fried rice🤔🥺🙄
Looks like Uncle Roger has failed to get me to go for his fried rice. Seriously
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Thank you very much!
i can safely say for sure that "uncle roger" restaurant is highly over rated , i understand the price since it in pavalion but what if i tell u that u can get the same food/taste that even better by going to those street chinese hawkers in klang for a fraction of the price.
Thanks for the honest review, we agree.
you just keep saying it's cold cold... okay, we get it, it's cold. but what about the taste? cold temperature doesn't remove the taste -_-
Just a reminder, you're in Southeast Asia. Maybe it's time to explore other countries for your RUclips content!
If you go to our lives you can see we went to guangzhou, hong kong, bangkok and macao the past two months. We just decide what to share on our twitch account and what do put on our youtube account
6:56 Haiyaa! Who eat fried rice with fork?
The guy is a comedian, I never found anything he produced is extremely funny, I casually click on his videos once a month. The Asian food looks mediocre at its best. I tried so many Asian food, the dishes there doesn’t impress me one bit 😂
Thanks for the honest review. The spaghetti is a must if u go there. And the appetizers are really good. But fried rice is a hit or miss. When it comes to service it's horrible hope they improve it.
Well the price you are paying :
That Nigel vibe (I dont know why you guys so gangho about him) : 50%
Pavilion with aircon : 30%
Your social media hype : 10%
That tissue paper with the word Fuyoh! : 5%
That fried rice : 5%
You are welcome.......
One more thing to add which cannot be seen on video due to noise cancelling microphones. The very very very loud Britney spears and backstreet boys music playing in the background. Maybe a way to make people eat faster
You'll get it back from what you've done. Same as Uncle Roger. He gave honest review to other restaurant FnB. Now he deserve honest review for his restaurant FnB. 😂😂😂
We try to keep our reviews 100% honest.
I rather you order a plate of chicken ayam goreng from a nearby "mamak" restaurant and additional money to get yourself a nice pulling tea brew , and perhaps a little more extra to get a plate of "roti canai".
I will be looking at Uncle Roger following Jamie Oliver's footstep in restaurant closure within a year.... I can bet you they will try to add a free cheap drink , and tell you it's a grand promotion when that happens. LOL.
Good call!
Can I order my food without using a QR code? I only use a Nokia 3210 dumb phone.
And also paying with qr payments. It's getting harder and harder. You need a $1,000 phone to survive the streets 😂
lol
☕🍿
7:01 use spoon to eat Rice too
Complaining about prices at a high end location is wild.
Complaining about a 30 minute wait time for a very popular restaurant is even more wild.
video started complaining about a very popular restaurant opening 30 minutes late. even more wild is the wait for the food. or all the comments below about having a bad experience just like us
Fuiiyooh, , I was the one who met you in the Maluri MRT today during rainy day, Hope you enjoy the trip to Penang
thank you very much. it was a pleasure meeting you
Fried rice…. Din Tai Fung👍
Din Tai Fung fried rice is heavenly ❤
Their service is also exceptional.
$28.66 USD for 2 adults and 2 children is a steal.
In the state yes. At paviollion we had much better for the same price and more food
fried rice by thai hawker food in malaysia is even better than UR. only cost less than 10 ringgit a plate. whoever try UR is paying through their nose for a lousy meal.
An honest review 😂 A KFC wannabe or probably McD I would say
Pavilion dear...you should know , expensive 😊
Damn..24bucks for a plate of cold fried rice??? The kitchen should at least reheat it in the microwave before serving to cover the tracks of it is fried long time ago... Haha
The kitchen must be exhausted from all the people coming everyday
@@voyagesdiarynope exhausted cause they had calculate before establishing the restaurant 🤣
Uncle Roger's restaurant is not an authentic Chinese restaurant. The food is not cooked by Chinese chefs and not served by Chinese. They use mostly frozen and only fresh vegetables. This restaurant is not funded by Chinese let alone Uncle Roger himself. Not intending to be racist but authenticity requires honesty from a genuine soul. Sorry Uncle Roger but your restaurant will fail miserably.
not fresh is correct. Don't wish anybody to fail but we sure hope uncle roger (who know who is the real boss) fixes it asap....
Haven't tried before, but I believed it's worth trying.
The haters should try having half of your salary go to charity instead of keep criticising others.
Then you will know the value of others. You can say whatever u wana say doesn't mean you can insult others and create hate here in RUclips.
Say something nice and use better choice of words pls.
Go ahead and try it-nobody is stopping you. Criticism is real, and we get roasted in our videos all the time. Uncle Roger, a great comedian, made his fame and fortune roasting people. But we didn’t like his restaurant. If we think something is bad, we’ll say it’s bad. If we think it’s good, we’ll say it’s good. Check out our other Malaysia eating videos-everyone gets their fair share of reviews. If you do want to try it, we suggest avoiding Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.
@@voyagesdiary
You've been in Malaysia for too long; it's time to go somewhere else to create your video content.
Cmonlah Unco Rojerr the prices are so unMsian… I want to see Unco Rojerr review his own food
Don't think he would review his food fairly
The thing is people don't mind spending the money "IF" the food is delicious and cooked right, to be honest i can find much better and a more delicious fried rice and cheaper and a roadside stall. Basically you are just paying for His name sake " Uncle Roger" . Look i ain't hating on him he just should stick to what his good at which is comedy. I like your honesty keep it up Fam....
Thank you for watching. That is exactly how we feel and that is why we did this honest review. Everyone should stick to what they do best.
Uncle roger should take note of your review... cold and crunchy rice is a no no. I seen so many reviews that just praised the fried rice dishes albeit the price... really bias reviews. By the way, just to complement you, you really look good for your age 😀 early 40s I presume
Thank you for watching. Sometimes people assume that paying more means better quality, but that's not always the case. Just because something is expensive doesn't mean it brings more value. It’s about finding the balance between cost and quality, and sometimes a cheaper product can be just as good or better if it meets your needs. Always look for why something is priced the way it is before deciding!
Just wondering, with the cold rice, did you guys tried telling the waiter. Maybe they can replace with another plate for you guys.
No we did not. After waiting so long for that rice the husband wanted to leave especially knowing what he had to pay. We took it as a loss. we do hope the kitchen gets their stuff together
Uncle Roger give a happy vibe. However most of the employees at the restaurant looks sloppy and doesn’t bring out the vibes of Uncle Roger. It’s quite negative
They did not see that excited
That's so overpriced,, honestly for me,,,and then,,the honest reviews,,making me thinking twice to go there now,,food served cold,, that's problem mate,,,hope uncle roger fix this
Haiya! 6:47 they no get timun 😮 Uncle how you fail your own people 🤔 Jamie Oliver not even serve cold food 😅
😂😂😂😂
Its look like you using android phone...right??i guess..😅
Btw now uncle roger got roasting by costumer..👍👍
It me from anime fest 2024 in Tropicana garden cosplay from hell's paradise name gabimaru
Thank you very much for the honest review.
Now sent in Jamie Oliver for the review.
Jamie reviewing undercover
You could've heat up your rice on daughter's dish😂
lol
Sorry the food is bland at best and waayyyy over priced. I predict the chain will close down in 2 years
Me and my friends from Singapore travel over to
Uncle Roger's restaurant and dine in.
We only can say... THE FOOD ARE NOT UP TO STANDARD!!
DISAPPOINTED!!
dang a long way to be disappointed. what a shame 😤
@voyagesdiary shame to Uncle Roger food, not me.
We went there to visit friends, not deliberately went there for the restaurant:)
Haha hope it is improved before opening the JB branch hahahaha
Next trip up to K.L I will give uncle Roger fried rice a try . Just to see what all the hype is about .
This is uncle Rogers attempt at a money grab but like him, this restaurant is a joke😂😂
We think he already did. Maybe someone else is the owner and just using his image
So sorry as Malaysian this is disappointing, Fried Rice should never be served cold, it's always fried fresh upon order and it will definitely taste bad the moment it becomes cold especially when there is aircon it gets even colder than room temperature 🥶. In fact for us it is allowed to cancel the order or request waiter to remake a new one if a dish supposed to be hot yet served cold. I think Uncle Roger didn't plan on the outcome much in terms of management. A lot of chinese restaurants have workers who works extremely fast and from the video the staff looks kinda overwhelmed and not working as fast thus the food gets cold so quick in serving delay. Definitely needs more staff and manager to keep track of speed.
Better trading is needed
Mahal gila 😊
Very very very very expensive
Less than $30 us dollars for all of that. Nice
overhype crap. Uncle Roger is not even a cook, just a very talented content creator.
For sure
Malaysia food and drink have so much sugar. It used artificial flavour and not healthy to consume so much.
