Sometimes, its really good to have a nice neigbourhood bar or I consider those outlets inside Hartamas is part of neighbourhood driven. Nevertheless, there is one new bar that open its door few months back and just recently discover on it. I did pass by here many times and notice on it as just didnt pay a visit till 2 weeks back. PReviously was another pub and now being taken over by new group had turn it into Chapter One.

Then our funny question came about, where is Chapter tWo and Three. Eventually we found out that their future expension is going to go along that line, to mark on how many outlets they have.

Chapter One (1)

something I love about this place is they comes with free Jockey service and this definately give them an advantage to many players in this area and for ladies, you don have to be worry cuz their service is from 6pm till you drunk. Love how they put it their operation time. 😀

Chapter One (2)

Chapter One (3)

with new management, it also means the whole interior also change, as its more nice and love how they cleverly redesign their bar.

Chapter One (4)

I was there from 7.30-11pm that nite and this pool table were never once empty. It was being monopolise by those few guys the whole night and of course with the rules, winner stay.

Chapter One (5)

Chapter One (6)

They serve 5 GAB draught beers (Guinness, Kilkenny, Heineken, Strongbow, and Tiger) ranging from RM12 up to RM16 for a glass, RM17 to RM23 for a pint and RM45 to RM60 for a jug. There are no happy hour for beers, but the ala carte price for the beers are reasonably priced. So, that’s beer hours for all day long! Apart from these selection of beers, there are also other beers sold in bottles.

Chapter One (7)

Their food range is pretty okay . .

Chapter One (8)

And since they have something new in this outlet, the bar manager creatively combine a few beers to make up his very own special beer cocktail and its in the menu now.

1) Strongbow Mojito – On our hot day, this will comes in good. Refreshing as it comes with a few flavours. Apple do pair well with this as Strongbow do have sweet end taste.

2) The Sex on the Beach is a mixture of Skyy Original, Peach, Cranberry and Orange juice.

3) Strawberry Daiquiri, mixture of Bacardi Carta Blanc, Creme De Fraise and Lime Squeeze. The presentation is cute.

Chapter One (9)

Beer Cocktail Promo with a choice of 2 form the list:

Chapter One (9)

Let me introduce you one of my favourite unique beer cocktail first. Comes with A mixture of Guinness, Bailey’s and Irish Whiskey.

Chapter One (10)

The Irish Whiskey is added into the glass before dropping the “bomb” (Bailey’s).

Chapter One (11)

Once the bomb is dropped, this need to be drank up immediately! Love the creamy feeling and once down, you burp and you feel the heat in your stomac. Its something like Flaming Lambo but this is the beer version. Perfect gift for birtday boy and girl.

Chapter One (12)

Other beer cocktail I find it interesting is of course

1) The Snack Bite Black Pint looked like a sunrise in a pint. It is a combination of Strongbow Apple Cider, Lager and Blackcurrant

2) this name caught our attention – Lunch Box for a beer cocktail name, it’s catchy.. Lunch Box is a mixture of Lager, Orange and Amaretto Disorono..

3) Previously I have seen so much about the posting of this combination of Strongbow and Guinness but yet find any outlet that promote it and now this outlet has it.. Its a bit smooth on the top cuz starting off with Guinness and further down its a great mixture of bitter and sweet end. Not bad~

Chapter One (13)

Chapter ONE Seafood Salad consists of prawn, mussels, cuttlefish, onion rings, croutons, coral lettuce, olives and cherry tomato, served with homemade thousand island dressing. I must say, the salad do impress me and its pretty good.

Chapter One (14)

If you are here for their live band and beer, then Crispy Pork Ribs is a MUST HAVE! The pork ribs are well marinated with fermented bean curd and served with sweet and sour homemade Thai chili sauce. It is serve pipin hot, with a bit crips on the end and aromatic. Perfect to go along with any alcohol on your table. .

Chapter One (15)

Pork Meatball

Chapter One (22)

Chapter ONE Sliced beef consists of grilled Angus Beef slice served with Japanese Soya Sauce and Wasabi. Its pretty good stuff, and for a price of RM 18, its a good bargain with many slices and its juicy.

Chapter One (17)

Pan-Seared Black Bass @ RM26

Chapter One (19)

Classic Pork Burger here are done with homemade style. weight about 200g per patty served with melted cheese, grilled red pepper, sauteed onion, mushroom and potato fries @ RM 28.

Chapter One (20)

Braised Lamb Shank @ RM38

Chapter One (16)

Their Spaghetti range is not bad too. We took off with Spaghetti Carbonara @ RM18 light creamy base although I always prefer mine to be thick as not many people like that. This is more generic.

Chapter One (18)

Spicy Seafood Aglio Olio Pasta not the best but certianly better than quite a number of places. With hint of garic spaghetti moist enough. @ RM23

Chapter One (21)

Pork Meatball Pasta would be better if the sauces can be slightly more sourish. @ RM20

Chapter One (23)

Another extra point for this outlet is that their live band is good and its available everyday EXCEPT SUNDAY. Service here is good too.

Finally, after so many miss out of their previous 3 Where’s the party event and I manage to go on their secret party place this round. As usual, we werent inform where will be the secret place be and all we have to do is follow on their mailer pack, prepare what is given in the details 2 days before the event, head to their assign destination then hop onto their bus without knowing where we are heading. What is actually Carlsberg Where’s the Party about 2012? Its action packed with a marathon of games, assembly of international music maestro’s and ice cold Carlsberg beer, and the event was a rally of energetic vibes from beginning to end.

The distinct party series offers young party-goers the ultimate party experience. The mystery event hones in on consumers’ natural fascination with the unknown and challenges the curiosity of those who are bold enough to step out of their comfort zone for greater excitement and rewards.

Indeed it was one of the beach party that I have attended so far for the year and also being first time at Carlsberg Where’s the Party its sure a blast for me with best friends being there to party and drink, all I could say its a crazy night for us bloggers and definitely looking forward for Where’s the Party 2013.

Revisit Sushi Zenmai again. Was with my friend that she thought of wanted to go on diet, then I mention Japanese food as good for girls on diet, less oil. Lol~ So went there and the best part was did not need to Que up as I was there around 3.30pm on weekdays..Lol~
This is what my friend ordered Kani Avocado Salad’. To me when I saw it I was like ‘yeeewwwww avocado, hate it!!! so soft as in it can just imagine my friend vomiting the things out from their mouth~ yucks!!!’ but do not underestimate this, with the special don know what dressing down on the salad, you will just race to the finish as 1 bowl of dressing not enough, asked for another 1. RM 12.80 for the lovely salad
Me on my diet too, so decided to order ‘Curry Udon Chicken’. Wow, this is the first time I had a nice curry chicken udon, the feeling is just like what I ate back in those days when I was in melb at one of the lunch box restaurant at Swanston Street nearby RMIT. The gravy is nice, a bit thick, sweet and curry powder taste. Some ppl might not like it but to mee its very nice. RM10.80 for this udon.
This 2 are my favourite’s which is ‘Salmon Mentai and Aburi Hotate. Once you try you will fall in love with it. RM 6 each.
Overall, still recommended this restaurant as the service is prompt and good food but I still think that the 1 in One-U taste better.
