Briyani Rice Restaurant

Day 59 - 941 days to go

Today we went to have lunch at a famous briyani rice restaurant near Puduraya bus station. Surprisingly, there were only a few tables of customers only when we reach the upper floor of the restaurant. I went there a few times but this round was just quiet.

I tasted the food and it remained good. Therefore, I can only guess a few possible answers to the multi million dollar question:

  1. Competition - the Puduraya bus station, which is only opposite the restaurant, was reopened in April this year. There are many similar food store operating in the bus station.
  2. Pricing - RM9.0 for a plate of white rice + some vegetable + a piece of fried chicken is considered expensive.
  3. Based on my last experience, when their business is good or even this round, they do not provide good customer service i.e. their response rate is very slow.
  4. They took quite a while to serve drink ordered despite not many customers. I guess they do not have enough staff in the kitchen. This is very bad as customers have only one hour lunch time including the travel time.
Well, I will still go there from time to time as the food is still tasty but the above 4 points, at least, will deter some customers to go back again.
