Recently had dinner here for Mother’s Day. I would say that the quality of food has seen a tremendous drop since the last time I came(maybe 2 – 3 years ago). Most dishes lacked flavor although portions were pretty big. However, for the hefty price tag, which averages about RM40 per main, there are definitely better places to go for western food.

The ship is a suitable environment for family and the staff there dresses up like captains and crew on a ship. It’s more of a childhood place for me at least but the food there has decrease in quality since young. Service there is fast but the dim lightning is not very suitable for taking pictures there. Their air con is always on full blast and is always very cold so be sure to come prepared. The ship has been around for very long and had established their brand name but I honestly feel that there are other newer places out there that has better food. Most people are there for nostalgia sake and a place to reminisce their childhood and past. I myself go there during family occasions just for old times sake.

The Ship has been around for decades! My parents used to bring me here when I was a child. Oh the good ol days when you don’t have to pay for your meals! Sweet joy! Haha. On my anniversary with my then girlfriend, we came here for dinner. The service was still top notch as it was in the past. The waiter greeted us with a smile and guide to our table. Their complementary bread is something that I always enjoy. It goes well with any soup or butter. For appetizers, I ordered myself an oxtail soup(this is the bomb!) and had chicken ala king for my mains. And really their standards are still there. I loved what I had, and just writing this makes me want to go back there for dinner this week!

The Ship has been around for 3 decades now, with its first outlet being in Jalan Sultan Ismail. Ever since I was a kid, The Ship and Coliseum have been the two places in KL to go for an old school Western meal. For our parents, it was the ‘fancy’ place they went to during their younger years and even now. My favourite pert of The Ship is their warn dinner rolls that they serve you before your meal together with their salted butter that never seems to taste like the one you have at home. A must try is their Fried Prawns which are already stripped of its shell, thus making it easier to eat.

The Ship has been around for as long as I can remember. My dad loves going to this place for steak up until now. Whenever we wanted to do Western food as part of family dinner, he just loved his steak. He took me for my first steak here years ago like it was some form of right of passage, and I just feel in love with it. The steak here, up until now, tastes so tender and juicy. I love the fact that I don’t have to spend so much time cutting the meat because it is so soft and just falls away easily. It probably doesn’t have the best atmosphere, in my opinion, because its dim lighting makes it look more dark than dimly lit.

The iconic thing about this dining place is that the exterior resembles the bow of a ship. The interior is mostly made out of wood and it is cater for the upper class dining experience. By that you should know the average price for a dinner for two would cost you well over RM150 easily. And when you are paying that much you do get better services where the staffs are well versed and knowledgeable in recommending the right food choices for your liking.
