This was my second visit to Meatworks in Solaris Mont Kiara, although it was the first time I've ordered a piece of steak there (which is, supposedly what they specialise in right?) Went there with a bottle of red (they charge a corkage of RM10 for each bottle, not too bad) and off we went choosing our dishes. I went with a piece of Rib eye, medium rare. As you can see in the photo, the steak is actually cooked to the right doneness. However, everything on the plate was cold. The side dishes, th
As you can see in the photo, the steak is actually cooked to the right doneness. However, everything on the plate was cold. The side dishes, the accompanying sauces, the meat. I wonder if it's because of poor time management, or if they have a super cold kitchen in there? Of course, I asked for it to be reheated without cooking the meat further. It did return a fraction warmer, but that was it. How about the meat, you ask? Well I have no idea where they source their meat from but it didn't appear to be a very good cut of Rib eye. Way too much sinew, and too much fat. Not those Wagyu-marbled melt in your mouth type but the one you spend 5 minutes chewing and ended up having to spit it out. Eww.
I shall also mention that the mash tastes suspiciously like instant mash. It's very disapppointing, since it's not the hardest thing to make anyway.
For RM58 (+RM5 for the mustard sauce without even a hint of mustard in it, and once again tasted very 'instant') , this dish is just not worth the money. Incidentally, my friend had a T-bone steak that was almost entirely made of fat. Never again!
The service was rather... difficult, as we were seated almost at a blind spot so each time when we have to get someone's attention we practically had to leap on the table. Not good.
