I wanted to try their meatballs again but I found out the awful truth about Ikea shoppers, they're up and about real early. And since there's only one Ikea store in Malaysia, everybody tend to crowd at this congested place.

While the shopping district of eCurve and the Curve is like a dead town, it's a whole other atmosphere once entered into the Ikea area. There's loads and loads of people everywhere flooding from all directions. The checkout counters already been filled with a very long line of people and throngs of humans herd into the entrance like sheep being herded into a pen.

I thought to myself, okay. Maybe I still can get my meatballs and headed towards the cafe and restaurant but I was so wrong. There were people filling every inch of the area. Sure there are seats available and a few tables not taken but the queue to the food area was long and massive. That put me off so much, I decided to head elsewhere for food.

Total Wallet Damage:
None. Nothing ordered.

Final Verdict:
0/10. Being a lone diner at Ikea on a weekend is like starring in a horror movie. There are people everywhere and I'm already considered early. I shudder to think going at a much later time. Avoid at all cost if you're alone and on a weekend. I figure the weekdays would probably fare better since most people are working instead of shopping at Ikea. :D
