Ever since its launching in September, Malaysians and tourists have flocked to local stand-up comedian Nigel Ng’s eatery Uncle Roger’s Restaurant, which is named after his online persona.
Unfortunately, not everyone is finding the experience to be a pleasant one, as such was the case with a Hong Kong-based YouTuber, who gave a rather scathing review of the restaurant.
Dropped by Uncle Roger’s Restaurant
In a Facebook reel posted by Lukian Wang, she said that she headed straight for the restaurant as soon as she arrived in Malaysia as she “was a fan and liked fried rice”.
Unsurprisingly, there was already a line forming 40 minutes before the restaurant opened its doors and Lukian was among those who entered first.

Upon taking a seat at the restaurant, Lukian proceeded to scour through the menu but was surprised to see that over half of its items had already sold out, leaving her with little choice but to settle for fried rice and hot lemon tea.
She then waited 21 minutes for her drink to be served and when she saw it, she quipped that it was an example of “false advertising” as it only had a single lemon slice instead of several slices as shown in the menu.

Though she tried to brush it off as a minor issue, nothing could have prepared her for what was about to come.
‘Worst dining experience in M’sia!’
For the next hour, Lukian was left waiting and wondering when her fried rice order would arrive. In fact, she got so bored that she decided to conduct a livestream with her followers while waiting for her food.
She also said sarcastically that the wet tissues provided by the restaurant were probably meant for customers’ “eyes and not their mouths” (perhaps to wipe away tears of frustration?)
After 60 minutes of torturous waiting, Lukian finally got her fried rice and she immediately broke into a wide smile of relief, adding that she shed “tears of joy” as she was starving.

So now you know, if you see a queue outside Uncle Roger’s restaurant, it’s not because it’s popular, but because of the slow service,” she remarked.
As Lukian dug into her meal, she was asked by a fellow customer about whether it was the “best fried rice in town”, to which she replied with a giggle, “Probably the best fried rice right now, because I’m so hungry.”
However, was it enough to make her come back for the second time? Sadly, no.

“Needless to say, I won’t be coming back, and I won’t recommend this to anyone who is not a content creator invited by Uncle Roger himself.
Because if you watched their videos like I did, they got such good service. But if you’re going in as a nobody small potato, they won’t give a s***.”
