McDonalds new improved buns (UK)

Went to McDonalds to try a burger because the big mac, quarter pounder and double cheeseburger now feature an improved bun.
Onions are placed on the beef after it is cooked to make it more savoury according to mcdonalds.
Anyway, I went for the double cheeseburger because the bun does not have sesame seeds.
The bun is basically glossy and brioche style because these days people eat with their eyes.
Previously, it was the matt dry looking version.
Anyway, this branch is consistently stingy with onions hence I requested extra and removed the gherkins and ketchup because I wanted to use the heinz pickle ketchup which tastes of both evenly mixed.
Apart from the burger looking visually a little nicer ie more posh, the taste was the same but I don't think this is a fair comment because standards are particular poor at this branch.
Anyway, I need to revisit again at another branch because I forgot to take a picture of the bun.

Bang Bang food hall

Just your usual Asian food hall!
The only food worthy was the dim sum from Royal China.

The noodles were disgusting, they had that disgusting metallic taste.

ASDA Cafe at Isle of Dogs

There are not many ASDAs around depending on your location so ASDA Cafes would even be more a rarity because there are simply not many.

At a recent visit to the Isle of dog asda, there was an ASDA cafe so went in to have a look.

It was clean, spacious and generally impressive.

The battered fish looked really good and so did the rest of the stuff.

Unfortunately, I had tasting nearby which was the reason I was in the area so I couldn't eat anything but had a mini doughnut instead.

It was definitely well filled for that size compared to other brands.

Overall, would definitely recommend this place.

Malaysian fare at Halia

Went to Halia because the food looked authentic and indeed it was however it was really frustrating because everything was barely hot.

Ordered the soto ayam and lotong, the rice cakes were inconsistent, some were soft while some were not so hard.
