It’s been a long time since I stepped into Marche as I don’t head out that area very often but the other day, I decided to have a steak for dinner. I know, not exactly the best place to have a steak but we were already at The Curve and I felt like a piece of meat. With salad, of course.

The concept is interesting in that you get freshly cooked food right in front of you and you get to pick and choose your food. You enter with a stamp card where the individual food booths stamping whatever you order onto your card and the prices are stated where you order. For me, it was RM40.90 for a rib eye steak.

Although they say it’s freshly cooked in front of you (which it is), I did wonder how long that piece of raw rib eye had been sitting out there??? Plus all the salad that’s sitting out plus all the other raw ingredients that are left out there??? Shouldn’t they be in the fridge?

I present to you……..*drum beats*………..the Marche Rib Eye Steak!!!

Doesn’t it look sad? When it was raw, it looked like three quarters of an inch thick but when I got it, it was less than 1 cm thick. It also came raw and the sauce was all bloody when I’d asked for Medium. I took it back to request for it to be cooked a little longer and they said, “Oh….you want medium well!”. Err…no, I wanted medium. To me that is brown on the outside and red on the inside but not bleeding liquid red! I asked them why my steak was so skinny when the raw pieces there were so plump, and they giggled. “Oh, we press them on the grill” and continued to show me how they hammered the poor steak.

The corn was a side dish that cost RM2.90. It was DRY, hard and tasteless. I sent it back. I said, “If you cannot give me decent corn (I’m not even asking for GOOD corn!), you might as well bin this because I cannot eat it.” They looked for better corn but couldn’t find any so they removed the stamp off my card for corn.

There was a buffet salad for RM9.90 but the bowl was so tiny, like 10cm diameter at the top ring and and inch and a half in height??? Shit. I could’ve eaten the entire bowl in one bite.

I piled it on with the flat veg at the bottom and finished every centimetre of the salad……in one bite.

I should have taken a side view of the salad to show you just how tiny the bowl was.

Because I was accompanying my friend’s last night out as a pregnant lady, we decided to PIG OUT and went for dessert…….

We spent 5 hours chatting and it was the best. I truly miss spending one on one time with special people sans kids, having great conversation about anything and everything. Bliss.
