Original Botak Jones

In the past when we talked about Western Food, we would shout "Botak Jones, Botak Jones" as this was the popular Western Food in Coffee Shop. For a period of time, Botak Jones has left the Western Food Chain but now it has revived again.

Just in front of the stall, there is a big PRISM television display on their menu items. Like most of the stalls, patrons are given the buzzer after ordering the food so they can pick the food up when its ready to be served.

All entrees come with spicy fries and coleslaw or any two of the regular side dishes. Botak Jones pride the Cajun Chicken as one of their signature dishes. I love the mozzarella cheese that melts on top of the marinated chicken. The way they are char-grilled over medium heat is good as this retains the juices minimising the meat turning dry during the process. The chicken breast is moist but not to die for as the spicy Cajun Sauce had kind of taken away, numbing my taste buds. Luckily I had the Regular Portion, even though portion looked a bit small, I was already struggling to finished up my meal.

The NZ Ribeye Steak comes in 250g for $23 or 350g for $29.50. The quality of ribeye used was prime steer grain-fed. The steak was hand marinated in order to tenderize it and enhance its flavour.

The Ribeye steak was accompanied by brown sauce to dip in and I guessed we had ordered the wrong sides as the Cajun Fries were spicy for our liking.

The Mushroom Soup can be topped up as a side for $1 but however if you are ordering it as a side, it will cost $3 a bowl. I love the texture of the mushroom soup as they have chunks of mushrooms and onions in eat added with some cheese. The pulling strands of cheese feel are special.

Overall, I felt that the standard of food is nothing to shout at. For Western food, there are a lot of better ones out there and as a coleslaw lover, the Coleslaw taste here do not have the oomph that I'm looking for.
