Oops it's been a little over a month since my last eating out post. Sorry for the delay but here's my next one at Spegg it. They specialize in pasta and I love pasta so I wanted to give it a try. It was late at night; I was there around 8:45pm. There was literally no other customers there at the time. They close at 9 so basically I was their last customer. I'll share the food photos and give a bit of a review on the shop.
Speggit is a fusion restaurant that specializes in pasta. Honestly, I wanted to try this place out due to the good reviews. You can see below that they have a 4.7 out of 5 stars with over 234 google reviews. You can find this place in USJ21 just a bit of a walk from the USJ21 kelanja Jaya lrt stop.The place is well decorated. The workers there are from Pakistan and they are super friendly. They told me that the owner was Chinese.
Food
I had the beef penne alfredo. Honestly, I prefer the alfredo chicken penne from Costco when I was still in California. Honestly, I'm not too sure if this pasta was fresh. I think it might have been heated up because some of the pasta felt a bit cold at the bottom where was the outside was warm. The beef was not very tender. It was super chewy and hard to swallow. As for the drink, I had a vanilla milkshake. Honestly, this one was alright. It wasn't the best vanilla milkshake I've had but it wasn't bad. Then again it's really hard to mess up a milkshake.
Overall, I didn't enjoy the pasta which was the main purpose of coming to the place. I felt the pricing was reasonable for this type of food. I do want to give them another chance and try a different pasta. I'll probably try carbonara next time if I do and hopefully it wasn't as disappointing as the penne. I'll give this place a 3 out of 5. I will give them a chance to redeem themselves sometime in the future.
Thank you for reading and the support. Please do share your eating out moments in the eating out community! Hoping to grow this community.
