I had no idea there was a Pepper Lunch Express located in the food court of Gateway Mall. I was expecting they'd have a stand alone restaurant, but apparently "express" attached to the name really means you get your pepper lunch meal in a jiffy.
The menu is quite similar to its restaurant counterpart, albeit, the portions at Pepper Lunch Express are smaller. However, the presentation and quality of meat is still the same as the original Pepper Lunch.
I ordered the Beef Pepper Lunch upgraded to the jumbo sized serving and this was more than enough to satisfy my craving for a Pepper Lunch meal. The hot plate it was served on was super hot so the meat cooked evenly and quickly. The meal came with a huge serving of rice, corn and of course, pepper. Lots of it.
I like the concept of Pepper Lunch Express as the wait time is pretty quick, and for just a minimal amount, you get more beef strips than the regular sized beef pepper rice offered at the express version of the restaurant and it's great for people on the go who don't want the greasy food options usually found at food courts. read more
