Curry Express in Richmond Centre

Curry Express Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - ZomatoI’ve barely been to this mall, but was going to see a show later on, so my friend and I stopped by for a quick bite at the food court. Wow! I must say it’s a pretty impressive food court. Very modern, clean, bright and higher-end then – let’s say Metrotown. I liked how the different venues had a cohesive design so that it wasn’t all random.  It seemed to all work together, yet, each one was still kept it’s brand’s look.

idearabbit-curryexpress_richmond3 idearabbit-curryexpress_richmond4As with all other other Curry Express in mall food courts, the menu is the same. I got my usual Butter Chicken on Rice $5.95. It’s certainly not as rich as ones you would get in a sit down restaurant, but it’s ok. The chicken pieces this time were too large making it a bit difficult with the flimsy spoon to cut or hold while trying to take a bite out of it.

Caution: the spoons are thin and flimsy, but sharp on the edges! My friend cut his lip with it :(

Panda Express at Bellis Fair

Panda Express on UrbanspoonA food joint that exists primary because of its existence in the Bellis Fair food court. The food out was not fresh and didn’t really look appetizing. I had a small 1 item to go with Chow Mein (about $3 USD). It has whole grain noodles with shredded onions, celery, cabbage and bean sprouts.
It’s fast food – cheap food. Just to satisfy my empty snack department in my stomach – not my tasting buds.
Most of the staff were friendly or ok. They seem a bit disorganized with food orders and individual tasks.

Jack in the Box

Jack in the Box on UrbanspoonOn Christmas Day, we were driving to the US and we stopped by – gasp! at Jack in the Box after driving through customs. I always feel really greasy after leaving here – could be because I see how many calories each meal has up on the menu board, or because I see so much grease coming from the food itself.

idearabbit-jackinthebox_border idearabbit-jackinthebox_border2I ordered just the 10 Chicken Nuggets $2.59 USD while Sheepie had the Jack’s Spicy Chicken Burger meal with small curly fries and a small drink $6.99 USD

They were much smaller than McDonald’s or Wendy’s. Wasn’t crispy, didn’t taste as good either and left huge grease stains on the boxes.idearabbit-jackinthebox_border5The curly fries were ok.
The restaurant was bare when we came in, but it got pretty busy when we were about to leave as it was the only place open in the area.
Next time, I will order a chicken salad instead…lol
