We are not experts in local food but Western cuisine was part of our career in F&B so we had quite high expectations for our lunch at Cuisines. The atmosphere is pleasant and like other reviews said the staff are friendly and efficient. Sadly we were very disappointed by the food. For starter we ordered the humous with pita bread. The bread was industrially made and dry. The humous itself was ok but less tasty as those we enjoy in Arabic restaurants of Bukit Bintang area in KL. I ordered the fillet mignon steak. First of all the fillet mignon quality was changed to ribeye. Clearly the meat had been frozen. I requested medium rare cooking and oit came out very well done, hard and tasteless. The cut was thin like basic local steaks from buffalo meat. The sauce was made from powder and so was the tiny mash portion. My wife ordered the lamb. It was presented exactly the same way with industrially made mash, powder sauce and a few vegetable. We had only mineral water to drink and out total bill was RM 180. Clearly way too expensive for the quality offered. Sadly, not a place to recommend in Ipoh and way over rated here on Tripadvisor.
