Ben's General Food Store, Bangsar Village 1


Ben's General Food Store, located @ Bangsar Village 1 is another restaurant that is opened by the previous Delicious owner, Benjamin Yong. After he sold off to the E&O group he opened up his own restaurants like Plan B, Ben's and T FortyTwo under The Big Group.

The General Food Store is modeled like a communal styled cafeteria and pride themselves in home-styled cooking.


 
 They specialize in Hot Deli items, Pizza & Salads.

 
 

 The walls are decorated with various recipes and fun captions

 Plain water served in the style like many other Big Group restaurants

As per the menu they serve a wide selection of pizzas and different kind of salads from the display counter. Thier hot deli items comes with a salad serving of your choice. Portion for the salad is quite big as you can see yourself. I recommend if you and your dining partner is not a big eater, just one deli item to share is enough.

This is called Tabbouleh, pronounced as Tak Boleh !

 Eggplant with Ramen salad

 Chicken Pie (RM20.90)

 Beef Lasagna (RM23.90)

As i mentioned the food portion is quite big, coupled with a serving of salad is enough for two. The salad was good and fresh. The chicken pie was a tad bit dry, still liking the ones from Dome much better. The Lasagna...well is normal but could do with more cheese.

Summary:

Overall decent food in a nice cozy environment. Big portions.

Rating:

Environment - 3/5 (cozy communal cafeteria feel)
Yummy Factor - 3/5 (nothing to complain about. above average)
Value for money - 3.5/5 (the prices here are comparable to many other cafes but slightly cheaper then Plan B)
Service - 3/5 (Service was decent. Good but nothing to shout about)
Will return ? - Yes

Overall - 3/5
