How was it? The Caesar's salad was way too creamy ... but the piece resistance was the Chef's Special Ribs. Tangy, with a hint of spice, in the fantastic barbecue sauce. Simply magnificent, went really well with the coleslaw and creamy mashed potatoes. Mmmmmmmmh :-)
ps. Enjoyed the rose-wine too!

Congratulations Lim!

Village Park ... Nasi lemak, and Cava revisited

Where has this restaurant been all my life? I was introduced to Village Park's Nasi Lemak in D.J. yesterday (Saturday, 16th Dec), and it is simply magnificent!

Village Park Restaurant
45, Jalan ss21/37
Damansara Jaya
Petaling Jaya
Tel: +603 - 7710 7860

As described in masak-masak.blogspot.com ... "The place is run by a Chinese couple and usually one of them is around the place running the restaurant and collecting monies. The only slight problem you may have is parking around the area especially during the weekdays as that place is packed since there are so many offices around them. I usually go during Sundays or public holidays so it is easier to get parking. If you do want to try them for lunch during the weekday, park inside the Uptown buildings as they have ample car parks downstairs. The only thing is don't go there alone as I find the car park to be a bit dodgy as it is way too quiet."
















ps - Returned to Cava in Jalan Bangkung later on in the evening, for some light tapas ... the black pepper beef is very consistent, and supremely 'hoi-wai' (Appetising!) . Mango and avocado salad was reasonable , but a bit too fruity.

Lychee martinis @ Sevenatenine, The Ascott

sevenatenine
Add: The Ascott Kuala Lumpur @ 9 Jalan Pinang, KL
Tel: +603 2161 7789

Philip is da man! Makes the best Lychee martinis (and arguably the best Cosmopolitans as well!) in town ...

UPDATE (June 2008) - Philip has long left 7ate9 now, last I heard it was in Rooms, but I have not checked out the place.

As described by Jacelyn Johnson in FACES (September 2006),
"Situated in the heart of Kuala Lumpur at the Ascott Hotel, Sevenatenine is indeed an icon of the KL chic community! Its modern ambience welcomes you into a casual yet refined dining avenue. Sevenatenine has managed to bring life to the color white, as the decor, the walls, the sofas, the pillars and every nook and corner is clad with a simplistic yet elegant dash of white. This creates a rather cool and chic surrounding to give a total chill out experience.
The number seven plays a vital role at Sevenatenine. Well, considering the fact that it 'ate' nine. It is only sensible that it be given an imperative part to play. The number seven stems from the seven founders of the restaurant. Thus, it could be clearly seen in the menu that the number seven graces every item, especially in its prices...."

Tamarind Springs ... revisited

Revisited ... Tamarind Springs
Add: Jln 1 Taman TAR Ampang, Selangor
Tel: +603 4256 9300

Friday, 15th December 2006
Tamarind Platter (Must try!), Chicken and Coconut Soup (Damn good, fantastic large chunks of coconut), Snakehead Fish with Chilli (Smooth, tasty, but way too big!), Chicken with Lemongrass (Loved it!), Mixed vege in Fish Sauce (With large tofu pieces, really good), Pan-fried Bananas with Coconut Milk (Only dissapointment of the night - Too sickly sweet, stick to the Fried bananas with Icecream, mmmh, now that is heavenly) ... Green Point Pinot Noir from Australia was an excellent complement to the meal.
