My Bruneian uni mate is in town and on her first day, I brought her to Dave’s for lunch. Also my first time there, I didn’t know that they had pork (in bacon form, mostly) in almost every of their dishes. Lucky my friend is very liberal about such things as long as the food we had didn’t have pork in its ingredients. We were tucked away in a corner bench seat where we got a good view of the open kitchen and all the hanging skillets.
For drinks, I asked for the Pineapple Lassi and she, the Vanilla milkshake, at RM12 and RM10 respectively. She loved the milkshake, saying that it was one of the best she’s ever had. We wanted to start with Stuffed Mushrooms initially but since they couldn’t omit the bacon from the stuffing, we decided to have the sautee mussels in chilli & basil instead. Quite enjoyed this starter, though thought it was a little on the salty side. There were 10 mussels altogether, if i am not mistaken. At RM18.
My friend chose the chicken pesto sandwich in foccacia bread. Cut into quarters, it was served with a side of fresh salad. I think it was quite a good deal at only RM16. I chose to have the Cream Salmon & Spinach Pasta, with capellini (angel hair). It was a very good choice as the pasta was flavourful and big enough to share between the both of us. Quite a generous portion of salmon was used too. Priced at RM35.
It was a very satisfying meal and service was very good. With the dim lights and cosy seats, it’s a great place to relax and catch up.

Wow its been ages since I last visited this place. One lasting impression I got from Dave’s is their sub-standard and overpriced roasted chicken. But looking at your review, maybe its time to revisit them again and bury the bad memories!
epicuriousgirl says: was my first time there, so guess i had no expectations. i rarely order roasted chicken as my aunts cook roasted poultry quite a bit. but i thought food was quite good, even if the starter was a tad salty.
