I am staying at the Amara Hotel with my partner. We wanted to dine in house. The atmosphere was nice, but the AC was set so low that even as an European we were freezing.
My main dish was served ~25min after my partners. When it arrived, she was already done eating. The supposedly self cooked (chef recommended) noodles, seemed suspiciously like super-market ware and came severely undercooked. The tiger prawns were not cleaned of feces, but in fact had a big pile of it. Disgusting. The sauce was tasty, but it couldn't save the otherwise catastrophic meal. To top it all, there was a small catapillar on the salat.
If I had to guess, I would assume that they couldnt fulfil the order, but instead of telling us that it was unavailable, they sent an employee to grab noodles at the 7/11 and rushed the whole meal, which would explain the delay in the meal, the undercooked 7/11-style noodles, as well as the improper cleaning of prawns and salat.
The only saving grace for the restaurant are the friendly waiters. Either way, wewill definitely not eat dinner here again during our stay. Note that at the time we arrived in the restaurant there was only one other couple, so it was definitely not rush-hour for the kitchen. Know we know why.
