Latest Recipe @ Le Meridien, KL

It was a christmas dinner for the team. As planned, we headed to Latest Recipe at Le Meridien for buffet dinner. It is very convenient to take the LRT from KLCC to KL Sentral especially during after office hours to avoid the 'strawberry' jam.

The hotel's lobby

The first thing that we saw when we reached the entrance of the restaurant was the Chocolate Fountain. Look !! There were fresh strawberries and marshmallows on the left and right of the chocolate fountain.

Cute tubes of sauces to add flavor to salads..

The salad bar

Lots of different oil for salads..

Wwhoopppsss... so blur eh ..

Cold Mussels and prawns..
I ate the prawns with thousand island.. and as a prawn lover and I would say...

I LOVE THE PRAWNS !! Coz they were very fresh !!!

They said the oysters were very fresh...

Elly enjoying her super delicious dinner..

Take a break by taking photos !!

White Chocolate Fountain

As Christmas was coming soon, a lot of desserts with christmas feel..

This was something very new to me.. All the spoons hanging on a plastic holder like thiis.
I asked my colleagues but none of them knew what it was.. Finally, I asked the waitress..

It was actually a biscuit coated with white chocolate with mint flavor.. (something like that)

Look at the Santa Claus.. Cute, eh ... Out of my curiousity, so I ate it.. and tasted good lah..

While at the dessert section..

What I was cutting here was super duper yummy chocolate cake ah...

And you can also be creative at the ice-cream section..

I think it was Joey who decorated this plate of beautiful ice cream..

Oh ya.. they also have teppanyaki ice cream there..

Received gifts from the department club.. Elly and I both got Eco-friendly bag + Isetan Voucher

Overall, it was a great dinner. Food and ambience were nice.. They served indian food, chinese food, western food, malay food, japanese food, noodles ... dim sum.. hhmm.. not sure if I left out any..

If anyone of you is going there, please try their teppanyaki squid and prawn .. they served it with butter milk cream. Super duper delicious I tell you .. And also try their coconut ice cream.. I had two scoops of it !! HEhehehe..
Hahahaa..

The service was great. The waiters were very attentive. Once you had finished your plate of food, they will immediately come to clean up the table.. and they refill the drinks fast too.. You don't need to beg to the waiter like .. Oh please come to refill my drink ... please please like that.. So, I quite like it.. Oh ya.. when you were hunting for food out there, the waiter will fold the napkin into triangle shape again so it wont look messy on the table or the chair..

New Paris Restaurant @ SS2, Petaling Jaya

There are always birthday event to celebrate a friend's or a colleague's birthday but sometimes we had forgotten to have a birthday celebration with our dearest family members. For instance, my dearest Brother. Ever since bro pursued his studies in Ipoh we had not lived together.. I think the most length of stay together would be max up to 10 days? And that would be during Chinese New Year. I really can't remember when was the last time I celebrate my brother's birthday together. Perhaps, 10-15 years ago when we were still living under one roof ? I really can't recall it .. Sis-in-law suggested that we had a dinner together and of course.. why not? We went to New Paris Restaurant at SS2 for a simple dinner.

This is how little nephew looks like on the entire evening. Huge headphones but without music! And when I asked what he was listening to... he answered me NOTHING ! Cute isn't it ?

The chilli dip that came to the table. Tasted sweet and sour with lots of shallots. It does not taste spicy at all.. Probably, nowadays the chillies are not so spicy ler..
