Recently we were invited to Le Meridien KL, for the launch of a spanking new SPG ( Starwood Preferred Guest ) card, something the Starwood Group of hotels have revamped, and with added benefits. This is great news as I have just signed up for my very own SPG Card. This card entitles me to 15% discounts [...]
If you like your fine wines, and having a place to go for some high-brow happy hour, Millesime is the place to be. Every Monday to Fridays, Millesime hosts a Gourmet Hour, which is essentially their version of happy hour, and it starts around the time one kicks off work, between the time of 5.30pm [...]
We recently attended a Wine Dinner at Cava, Jalan Bangkung Bangsar with the Wine experts of Cuné wines, Mr Oscar Urrutia and Mr Roderick Hull. Cuné or Cvné, is situated in the traditional neighbourhood of Rioja, where the oldest wineries of Rioja Alta have established themselves. In 1879, two brothers decided to set up a wine business popularly [...]
I’ll be the first to admit, I don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day. I find all that wishy-washy propaganda just a way for Hallmark and restaurants to make money. I mean, all these over sized fuzzy greeting cards certainly don’t make me feel warm and fuzzy on the inside. Restaurants with their exorbitant prices don’t either. Then I [...]
Every year at around this time, we celebrate MIGF, i.e. The Malaysia International Gourmet Festival in Kuala Lumpur. The MIGF has been around since year 2001. In the beginning, this festival was initiated in response to the industry’s need for a rejuvenation of the then, rather obscure fine dining scene. Though Malaysians have always enjoyed [...]
Now corporate travellers to Kuala Lumpur, can mix fine food and business under one roof, especially if they are staying at the G Tower Hotel. G Tower Hotel is the up and coming choice for corporate and leisure travellers visiting Kuala Lumpur, as it has both functionality as well as a swanky vibe to it. [...]
As I stand quietly, patiently, camera trained in the right direction of Chef Daniel and Sage’s open kitchen, my focus can now fall on its mostly exhilarating food: a decadent slice of Hiramasa King Fish with smoked Avruga caviar Cream that’s the stuff of dreams; a mélange of Consomme of Foie Gras with Fresh Mushroom [...]
So here we are, outside of Millesime, waiting of a wine tasting event to begin. This particular event would be unlike any other and unique in itself, because we would soon be experiencing, the 5 famed first growths of Bordeaux by the glass, including the most sought after wine in the world right now, the Chateau Lafite [...]
I think it’s a bad thing that Bistro à Table is only a stone’s throw from our place. The temptation to eat there is just too great, and I feel no remorse when I say that I might actually be dining there again tonight, with my parents and the husband. The last time I came, [...]
Millesime, which opened late last year in a grey space in one corner of Solaris Dutamas on Mont Kiara, is what we call a mellifluously named restaurant (the word means “vintage” in French) with familiar innovative dishes on the menu that people have come to recognize as the trademark of a well-travelled, even eminent, chef [...]
I am over the moon! One of my all time favourite fine dining restaurants has been voted 8th on the list of Top 20 restaurants, according to the Miele Guide 2010! I feel that they totally deserve this privilege to be ranked way up there amongst restaurants like the famous Iggy’s from Singapore because their [...]
