Padang Tourist

Expensive Junk food at Botanic Gardens Taman Serasi Food Court?
Took family out to have dinner at the new food court at the new Botanic Gardens reception. Nice spanking new reception shame about the food. We tried the ‘Chinese Mixed Veg’, ‘Nasi Padang’ and ‘Banana Leaf’. Average cost was $4.50 per meal. Food was cold and to put it mildly crap especially the Chinese Mixed Veg. You’ll expect better quality for the price and being at Botanic Gardens which is a tourist spot. Unless it just caters for tourist?!! Anyone tried the food there?
um…what Botanic Gardens is this????
Padang – the land of the Minangkabau
