Betty's Midwest Kitchen, Aman Suria Damansara

NON-HALAL

There are just those few food or coffee places that EVERYONE goes to - almost literally. You'll see geo-tags on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter that checks in to the same place almost every time. Betty's Midwest Kitchen happens to be one of the places frequented by modern city youngsters, much like how they frequent the nearest possible Starbucks anywhere (and yes, I'm stereotyping).


The deco is a breath of fresh air - red, blue, and white dominates the main deco items, with woodsy walls and counters. On the left wall are frames and frames of pig art, and American deco everywhere. The staff greet you wearing a blue T-shirt that screams "IOWA" - literally.

Oozy, cheesy deliciousness!

The main attraction is that the place serves actual American food, like burgers, pork chops, and fries (not to be confused with fast food), and it's famous for it's "dog food" - fries drenched and topped with melted mozzarella and cheddar cheese, served in a metal dish. At MYR12 a serving, it's the perfect side dish for sharing.

It's the kind of burger that I'd eat separately

Sexy cheesy!

The recommendations included the pulled pork burger (which is delightfully juicy) and the baby back ribs, but I opted for a more budget-friendly option, and that was something I saw on TV a while back - the Jucy Lucy: a grilled pork and beef burger stuffed with mozzarella cheese burger served on a bed of fresh hot fries.

All that was washed down with a large glass of a traditional Stewart's root beer float - you can have the root beer as it is, or you can upgrade the root beer to a float for MYR0.50. As opposed to some other root beers I've had, this isn't as carbonated, and it doesn't completely numb your taste buds with sugar.

If you're craving for some good American food, Betty's is the place to go. It's a bit pricey, which is why I personally wouldn't go there too often. =)
