RM32 Fried Rice, RM11 teh o ais limau? M'sian says ‘No Fuiyoh' to Uncle Roger's overhyped eatery

A Malaysian man's recent dining experience at Uncle Roger's Restaurant has sparked debate online after he claimed the food wasn't worth the RM370 he paid. Steven Chan took to Facebook to share a detailed review of his visit to the Mid Valley Southkey outlet, listing 16 items he and his group ordered, which included service charges and SST. ALSO READ: Hong Kong content creator calls Uncle Roger's new KL restaurant 'worst dining experience' While price was a concern, Steven's main issue was the food quality. 'I ordered the cheapest fried rice for RM16. 'The owner asked if I wanted to add anything. I said garlic prawns, and that added another RM16 — but I only got five bland prawns. Total RM32. One bite in, and my heart sank,' he wrote. 'Even the boss double-checked the bill, asking, 'How did simple fried rice cost RM37?' Yeah, I want to know that too. 'As for the fried dumplings — sure, they were stuffed, but still felt way overpriced,' he lamented. 'I also ordered Uncle Roger's 'favourite drink' — RM11.50, and it turned out to be just a teh o ais limau. 'Sorry Uncle Roger. No Fuiyoh, No Next Time,' he stated. In conclusion, he advised others to skip the restaurant unless they're die-hard fans. 'Unless you're really craving for it, don't go. This is the kind of place you try once and never return,' he said. Since its opening in September 2024, Uncle Roger's Restaurant — founded by Malaysian comedian Nigel Ng, famous for his viral food critique videos — has received mixed reviews, with many diners pointing out long waiting times and inconsistent food standards. Steven's post triggered swift reactions online, with some netizens siding with him while others argued that he had the choice not to eat there in the first place. One user called Wong Ta Fat wrote: 'The expensive part isn't even the food — it's the 'IQ tax' that cost RM300, while the actual food was just RM70. I have no interest at all in trying these kinds of restaurants.' '6 plates of fried rice, 1 fried noodles, 6 bottles of water, 1 serving of satay, and 2 portions of mala dumplings. The average price per item came to RM23.18, including service charge and tax. Comparable to prices at a shopping mall — though the portion sizes, that's another question,' Vincent Yeap pointed out.

Influencer Kim Seri Accused Of Neglecting Her 3 Kids In Malaysia While Living In Korea

Malaysian influencer Kim Seri has been receiving negative press lately. Previously, the content creator was accused of travel package fraud after a woman and several colleagues were allegedly left stranded in South Korea due to Kim Seri's travel agency failing to provide return tickets. The case appears to still be ongoing, with little to no updates following the arrest of her former husband. While all of this was happening, the public figure has since remarried, this time to a Korean-Muslim man named Choi Amin. However, Kim Seri is now facing renewed backlash, this time over allegations of being a neglectful mother to her two children. The latest criticism stems from a post on Threads by an anonymous user who goes by @/user768592844621919, who questioned Kim Seri's parenting. The post insinuated that she had abandoned her children while enjoying a comfortable life in Korea. 'Doesn't she miss her kids? I mean, she's living comfortably in Korea, even got married to someone there, but it's a pity that she hasn't been a present parent. It's a shame that they have a mother who is a scammer,' the post read. The post quickly went viral, with many netizens agreeing with the user's sentiments. Numerous commenters criticised the influencer for allegedly failing to prioritise her children, accusing her of being an irresponsible parent. Others continued to brand her a scammer and claimed that she had brought shame to her family. At the time of writing, Kim Seri has yet to respond to the latest backlash. However, she has previously denied similar accusations, stating that it was her ex-sister-in-law who had restricted her access to her children. In other news, the Malaysian influencer is taking legal action against an individual who questioned the legitimacy of her marriage to her new husband. At this point, let's just hope there's an end to this whole fiasco surrounding Kim Seri. Sources: Threads, Instagram
