Firefly Bar & Grill in KK Times Square on the fringe of Kota Kinabalu, has a new menu and we at SabahBah.com have mixed emotions about it.
The bad news is, the the Classic Firefly Beef Burger we so much loved is not on the menu any more. Not in it’s classic form at least.
The good news is… well, we haven’t discovered the good news yet.
In stead of the Classic Firefly Beef Burger, there is a Firefly Chicken Burger, but we just couldn’t get ourselves to try it, afraid we would spoil the juicy memories of the beef version we still covet.
Instead, we tried the LA Burger. It’s a large beef patty, which, yes, on it’s own is not too bad.
But it’s pretty much alone on the burger bun, save for a few slices of what seemed to be pickles underneath. The description on the menu wasn’t quite what we had on our plate.
A light point was the Firefly Salad with extra Pepper Roasted Chicken added. An interesting looking salad, which tasted pretty decent too. At RM15 it’s OK value for money.
Firefly also seemed to have had a bit of staff turn over, and our server Zeck (according to the bill), seemed a bit inexperienced tonight, in fact, he seemed a bit afraid of our table, so much so that he hardly said a word and never actually asked us if we wanted anything to drink.
Maybe it was just an off night. The new menu looks interesting and is definitely queued for further exploration.
