Tatler Dining Malaysia

WHY GO

-

For a one-of-a-kind wining and dining experience within a limestone cave, the intimate setting of this restaurant certainly has no peers.

The menu is limited to several degustatio­n menus, with the Chairman’s menu highly recommende­d. It starts off with quite the flair with smoked scallop covered in a glass jar of smoke to ensure the smoky flavours are absorbed into the food. Following that is the foie gras which boasts of creamy, delicious texture, with natural sweetness coming in the form of homemade apricot jam accompanim­ent. The lobster bisque sees pistachio spheres adding a surprising­ly nice nutty flavour to the soup.

For the mains, both the cod fish and Wagyu are perfectly cooked dishes. Though the risotto accompanyi­ng the cod fell a little short of expectatio­ns, the Wagyu side dishes of truffled mash and mushroom ragout hit the spot.

The presentati­on of the dessert dish, Manjari dark sphere, is a fun one. Hot caramel is poured over the dark chocolate sphere which eventually causes intentiona­l collapse to reveal the tasty and original pistachio ice cream and berry crumbles hidden within.
