Hello my fellow Steemians and Tasteemers. Today I would love to introduce to you one of the most underrated restaurant located in Donggongon Town. **"Restoran Gembira"** is a Malay name for this fabulous restaurant, which means **"Happy Restaurant"** if it is being translated to English.

This restaurant has two stalls or preparation area that prepares different types of excellent and delicious foods.

As you can see from the two menus below, each stalls specialises in preparing the menus that is being displayed.

It was half past 12 that day, so, me and my wife was looking for a place to have lunch while waiting for our daughter from her tuition class. I haven't been to this restaurant for such a long time, so I ordered Roasted Duck with Rice for myself, and my wife ordered Roasted Chicken Rice.

The sauce can be a bit better, but maybe different shops has their own special recipe sauce. This meal costed me RM6.00 or USD1.79 which is cheap in my opinion. Normally it would have costed me at least RM9.00 up to RM12.00 at other shops.

The sauce is good and I love the fried garlic sprinkled on top of it. It gives an extra delicious aroma and taste to the roasted chicken. This meal costed RM6.00 or USD1.43, it is cheap, about the same price as most other shops too.

The main problem getting to this restaurant is because of the parking areas. As of most parts of Donggongon Town, parking is always a problem, but this area is the worse as it has limited car park spaces. So, to get here, you might have to park further away or just park at Megalong Mall if you hate hunting for a spot to park your car. It'll take you at least 7 to 10 minutes to get to this restaurant by walking. This restaurant doesn't actually look appealing from the outside but the foods are cheap and marvellous. The restaurant is clean, and the staffs are really friendly. I highly recommended you guys to drop by. This restaurant opens daily from 7.00am - 5.00pm. Have a great day everyone! --------------------- ### Restaurant Information
