Shrimp Feast at Bubba Gump
Are you a big time fan of shrimps and your mouth will always salivate when you see some big and fresh shrimps? If yes is your answer, this restaurant should cater your desires for shrimps and they’ve been around here in Malaysia for quite some time now.
Bubba Gump Shrimp Co is famous for their specialty in food involving the use of shrimps. Basically, everything you find in their menu has got something to do with shrimps, even their company logo tells you all. I’ve recently got the chance to try this restaurant in their Sunway Pyramid branch.
The inside of this restaurant’s look and feel is based on the ever popular story of Forrest Gump. You’ll see photos of the movie and such hanging on the walls within this restaurant. There is even one section in this restaurant that gives a similar look and feel of Forrest’s house. By the way, the sign ‘Run Forrest Run’ indicates that everything is fine at your table and should you need the waiter’s assistance, flip the sign over and you’ll see another sign that states ‘Stop Forrest Stop’ and should the waiter sees it, he or she will be at your service.
Moving on to their food, I tried their Shrimper’s Heaven that consists of four different types of shrimps made in different ways as well. The side dish that comes with it are the fries and coleslaw. The shrimps were big and the taste of it based on my experience here on this particular day was good but somehow the sauce that was provided tasted somewhat weird. Well, it could be that I do not know how to appreciate it but to me, I’ll have to say that I dislike the sauce because even the ketchup doesn’t taste like ketchup at all. This Shrimper’s Heaven is priced at RM44.90.
As a conclusion for this restaurant, food quality wise is good but there are sure more room for improvements. The pricing here though isn’t your every single day affordable food but you can say that you should pamper yourself with some good food once in a while. Price ranges from about an average of RM25.00 to RM60.00 for their main course. I would say that this restaurant does offer something different considering that it specializes in shrimps and the price would be similar if you go to restaurants like Chillis or TGIF and it is definitely worth the try.

I like shrimp.. But i will not ever again go to Bubba Gump Shrimp . My Uncle, Eden, he went to Bubba Gump Shrimp at Sunway Pyramid, and ate the Greenbow tender chicken as appetiser and something baked and chessy as the maincourse, and he got food poison. He spent so much money for the hospital and it really makes me dissapointed. For me, they just set the price as high as possible without giving us the best quality . Its not worth at all . Bubba Gump sucks.

I understand your disappointment regarding to your experience at Bubba Gump Shrimp. Well, yes it is their fault for serving food that causes food poisoning. However, it is their one-time mistake here so I suppose there’s still room for improvements not unless the food poisoning happens frequently then yes it is fair to judge them negatively.
