We just had a terrific meal at Favola, Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur today, and it was all thanks to visiting guest chef, Chef Stefano Merlo who is from Rossini’s, Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit Bangkok, Thailand. When we asked him if he liked Kuala Lumpur, he replied, very much, but it was actually only his very first time visiting [...]
Word is out. Apparently, there is a new Italian Chef in town, Chef Alessandro Graziosi and he now heads the kitchen at Villa Danieli. That’s good news, for sure. But what’s even BETTER news, is that if you read on, till the end of the post, you stand to WIN dining vouchers, so you can [...]
We are back at Verona! This place now serves pork, and since our past experiences have always been good here, we were pretty sure that the latest grub offerings would be good too.(Read our past post here). Verona Trattoria has in its repertoire the casual home cooking style that might be called bistros or diners [...]
The day Garibaldi opened its doors to the public, it became immediately clear what Kuala Lumpur had been missing all these years: a warm, intimate ambiance, fabulous cuisine, and Chef-attended service. Garibaldi might have even launched a bit of a culinary metamorphosis in Kuala Lumpur, and in my humble opinion, it remains one of the [...]
We settle down to dinner at the spanking new Spasso Milano at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, and as we chat and enjoy the wine, the waiter places in front of my plate, an almost lethally large portion of Risotto Alla Milanese served as the classic Risotto and dressed generously with a fragrant aroma of Saffron. I [...]
At first glance, Verona Trattoria seems like an odd match for the quiet neighbourhood of section 17. Located right next to Bistro a Table, as well, you would think it might feel a little daunted by the French fine-dining restaurant next door. Though it calls itself a bistro, we know how high end the food [...]
A mischievious Mr.V, an IT geek, at a ripening age of 20, had the unfortunate role of unleashing the spirits of Christmas a little to early before the 25th of December. As you can see below, the surprised look of Ms.R as the feisty spirits of Christmas raced out of the magic crystal ball, streaking [...]
Who is Robert Mondavi? Well, Mondavi believed that the path to a better lifestyle was through the appreciation of wine, food, and art. He is the person who also believed that Napa Valley could be the center for that lifestyle, producing wines that belonged in the company of the great wines of the world, and [...]
Well what you just saw was our interview with Chef Fabrizio – a talented and experienced Italian chef who has worked in many countries including Italy, France, the middle east and now Beijing. Chef Fabrizio heads Prego, The Westin Beijing but for the short period of one week, i.e. from the 4th to the 12th [...]
Singapore’s polished Italian restaurant, il Lido, which has been doing a brisk business since it opened in June 2010, in the Yap Kwan Seng neighbourhood, feels like a very familiar kind of place. And it should. We have been coming here regularly for close to a year now and the place still looks as swanky [...]
The dining room isn’t exactly awe-inspiring, but it’s comfy and warm, with a combination of blue painted walls and exposed brick on the walls, the old-world charm of well-worn tables and an airy front kitchen. I wonder if that’s why they call this place, Osteria, Real blue? Anyway, apart from the unorthodox deco, the message [...]
