FOOD: Marc's Grill @ IOI Boulevard, Puchong Jaya

Recently, I got an invitation to the newly opened Marc's Grill @ IOI Boulevard located in the heart of Puchong ( opposite IOI mall). This eatery is definitely a must to visit when you crave for some satisfying and wholesome meal. 

Marc's Grill is an initiative from one of my good friend's (Shaun) mom (Mdm Tay) & her business partner (Marc). Together, they started off this eatery aiming to serve patrons with home-cooked grilled items and some local asian delicacies.

Mdm Tay and Marc a food lover themselves, they were also very particular about the price and quality of their food served here. They ensure that all the food served here at Marc's Grill has 

No preservatives & MSG. In fact, they uses a lot of herbs and spices to marinate and gives the dish it's taste. Not to mention on the portion served here is rather BIG!

 A simple modern way of setting I would say for a grill with bright surroundings, comfortable and spacious feel to it. 

Some decorations around the place

During this review, we were very fortunate to be able to try some of Marc's Grill specialty & signature.

Let me start off with the few of my personal favourites!In other words, it is a MUST TRY!!!

 Ribeye Beef Steak

RM32.00

MUST TRY!!

For a serious beef lover, this should be the piece of ribeye you've been searching for! 210 gram of juicy and tender meat cooked to "medium well" seasoned with salt and pepper. Served on a hot sizzling plate together with a side of grilled or mashed potatoes, corn & salad of the day. This dish is complemented with a choice of 2 sauces, brown or black pepper. 

Honey Mustard Chicken

RM16.80

Being my second favourite among the night, this tasty and special recipe can only be found in Marc's grill. Marinated long hours with honey and mustard, grilled to perfection! Wonder how did they maintain the moisture in the tender chicken thigh after the grill.

 Ayam Goreng Berempah Set

(Comes with jasmine tea + fruits of the day)

RM14.90

Served with generous portion of fragrant rice, sunny side up, salad and prawn crackers. This is totally a lunch set worth for money!

Weekday lunch Special set

Being the local favourite too, this set is only available during weekday lunch time. This plate of goodness, requires patience marinating the chicken overnight with fresh herbs such as lemon grass (serai), galangal, ginger and almost every spice you can find to bring out the best chicken rempah you can find in town!  

Mutton Curry

RM16.80

Next would be the Marc's Grill very own special Mutton curry! Mdm Tay mentioned that, this has got to be one of their best seller among all the dishes. You can opt to request for spaghetti, 2 slices of rye bread or a plate of rice to go with this spicy yet tasty dish. 

 Savoury waffle with bacon and walnut

RM15.90

Another dish that stood out among the rest was this savory waffle. An unique combination of waffle topped with sunny side up, salad, walnut, & bacon and drizzled with hollandaise sauce. A change to your usual waffle

 Chef's special grilled lamb

RM25.80

A similar dish to Honey Mustard chicken above, served with a lamb chops, grilled or mashed potatoes, corn and salad of the day! 

 Tasty Beefy Beef

RM17.80

  

Looking for a post workout meal? This should be it! Served with 180gram of homemade beef patty, topped with a generous portion of shimeji mushroom which makes it appetizing between 2 healthy charcoal buns. Definitely fill your stomach and addition protein required of your body after your workout!

 Bistro Walnut Bacon Salad

RM18

If you're feeling not-that-hungry and would like to have a healthier dinner, this would be it! The Bistro Walnut bacon salad. Served with fresh lollo rosa, yellow mango, apple, and cherry tomatoes served together with cranberry for the added sweetness, walnut for the crunchy bite with a light sprinkle of zesty dried orange peel and drizzled with some sesame dressing.

 Mushroom soup

RM7.80

 Pumpkin soup

RM7.80

FOOD: U Dessert @ IOI Boulevard, Puchong

Dessert is a MUST for some of us especially after dinner. In case you're looking for a place for dessert or just a place to hangout with your friends and family, think no more and head to U Dessert @ IOI Boulevard, Puchong! 

Recently, I've been invited for a review at this place located at the center of Puchong ( Just right opposite IOI mall). 'U Dessert' has been well known in the state of Johor and Penang and has now expand their business to Selangor with 2 outlets which is at SS2 and Puchong. 

 The entrance of U Dessert

In case you're wondering, 'U Dessert' simply means "Dessert for you". There are also tables and chairs outside for smokers

Spacious, cosy and comfortable settings of the restaurant

Good place to chill and relax while enjoying your dessert especially after a long day at work!

To your surprise, this dessert place does not only serve desserts, guess what, they serve main course too! In short, you can even opt to have your dinner here before your dessert! It's an 'all under one roof' concept!

Promotions!

GST Treats! 

Choose any meals from only RM7.90 onwards for a plate of fruits and an iced lemon tea

*with upgrade of RM1 - Soda drinks

                                                                   RM2 - Fresh fruit juice (orange, watermelon, 

                               apple)

Just in case you're wondering, this is not that GST you're thinking about. It stands for 'Great Saving Treats' here at U dessert! A pretty reasonable meal you can get I would say especially with the kick in of GST recently.

Here's the food that we had that night,

 Thai Grilled chicken with rice

Rice with raisin served with crispy golden fried chicken topped with Thai chilli sauce to give it's authenticity! This set comes with a fresh cut fruits and an iced lemon tea!

Black pepper chicken udon 

You can also opt for to have this black pepper udon ( as you can see from the promotion above) if you feel like having noodles or you are a black pepper lover! It also comes with a plate of cut fresh fruits and an iced lemon tea! 

 Grilled chicken

The grilled chicken is served with a choice of 3 sauces namely Italian mushroom sauce, Thai chilli sauce, and black pepper sauce. My favourite would be the black pepper as i like my grills to be dipped in black pepper at the same time not overwhelming the natural juicy taste of the well marinated chicken  

 BBQ chicken bun

Mango fish fillet bun

Here's some snacks worth trying for you! I personally loves the mango fish fillet as it has a very unique taste to it. It's a combination of sour and salty taste to it! Very interesting I would say. Give it a try when you're here and tell me about it! :) 

Here at U dessert, they boast about their dessert for having NO preservatives, LESS sugar and natural! So, for those "health conscious foodies", this is just the place you've been looking for! 

Some desserts that we had,

 Hor fun in Mango Sago Sweet Soup

A generous portion of mango served with 'hor fun'. In case you're wondering, those are not actually coconut strips as it's slightly softer compared to the actual coconut strips. However, this bowl is very personalized, it's either you love it or you dont. I personally like it better if the 'hor fun' was chewier! :)

 Ice cream & Pomelo in Durian Sago Sweet Soup (MUST TRY!)

To be honest, being a durian lover myself, I think U dessert had serve one of the best durian dessert in town! Consist of a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a generous serving of pomelo and not forgetting the scoop of 'real durian flesh' on top of their very own made durian sweet soup. If you're a durian lover just like me, this is a MUST TRY for you!

Mango pancake

Durian pancake

These fluffy boxes pancakes are just heavenly! Every bite you take, you are sure to have them melt in your mouth! There are 2 flavours for you to choose from namely mango and durian. In case you're trying both during your visit, I would recommend you to eat the mango first as the durian one would have a stronger taste in comparison.

Mango rice balls

 Ice blended Durian

Ice blended Mango

Last but not least, they also serve ice-blended! However, these ice-blendeds taste almost similar to the desserts i've mentioned above. Maybe this is good if you're in a hurry! HAHA! 

Finally, thank you U Dessert for hosting a session for us! Really love their durian desserts, will definitely be back again with my friends and family for more desserts here in the near future! Cheers!
