Observe the mug, does it look familiar to you? Well if you guessed this frozen mug of Guiness Stout is from Chillis Grill & Bar, you're wrong but i don't blame you because the restaurant that serves this mug of black gold is called Spaghetti Grill, yet however both Spaghetti Grill and Chillis falls under the same management. Hence you get the same mug same great taste and almost same dining atmosphere, but different price indeed.

For those who have not already tasted the stout at Chilis, it tastes rich, creamy, smooth and yet it's at near frozen cold temperature, in short it's really really really good! Spaghetti Grill's one tastes the same too.

Spaghetti Grill is now having all day long happy hours promotion though, it costs only rm9.95+ for a 10oz glass of Guiness or Heineken or a pint of Tiger. Leprechaun luck was on my side today i guess haha,, i ended up paying only rm9.95+ for a pint of Guiness! :P

Here's the story: My friend and i shared 3 glasses of Guiness between us, sat down ordered two glasses first then one glass at the end. But when the bill came, i was charged rm11.95 for a glass each, asked the waitress why and she replied it was rm11.95 nett, however that couldn't be because when the bill is subtotaled i was charged an additional 10% service charge and 5% government tax!

Unhappy, i asked for the manager and he told me that my glass was in fact a pint glass and not 10oz. No wonder la right when the stout came i was thinking "hey man gosh this is really really worth it, rm9.95 for such a big mug muahaha!' However however, i rebutted the manager and told him that when i ordered i specifically asked for the happy hour promotion and never have i asked for a pint! The manager was really cool though, he accepted my arguments and refunded me rm2 for each pint. Still considered cheap though if you are charged rm11.95 for a pint of such awesome black gold, other restaurant would have charged at least rm20 for a pint.

Another promotion worth mentioning at the Spaghetti Grill is the set lunch, it cost only rm9.95+ for a main menu of pizza, pasta or salad and a choice of bottomless fountain drinks. The portion is slightly less than normal though but nevertheless filled my tummy up just nice with the 1 1/2 pint of guiness haha!

All in all it cost me only rm30 for lunch and 1 1/2 pint of stout, it's a steal i think! Spaghetti Grill is located at Mid Valley Ground Floor, just a few shoplots beside Chilis Grill.
