Pushing the Limits of Peat: The Octomore 15 Series Arrives in Malaysia
November 29th, 2024
It is just weeks away from Christmas and New Year’s! The culinary team at Sunway Putra Hotel Kuala Lumpur is preparing festive feasts to remember at the hotel’s Coffee House for both occasions. We had the pleasure of pre-tasting their offerings last week; read on to find out more.
Starting on a Japanese note, we nibbled on an assortment of sushi filled with ingredients like salmon, crab filaments, and unagi, which was good. Then, we tried the soup selection. Given that it was a rainy afternoon, we especially enjoyed sipping on the hot Seafood Bisque, accompanied by crunchy and savoury cheese breadsticks. There was a generous amount of clams and shrimp, as a seafood bisque should have. Salads and other appetiser choices included Smoked Salmon with Sweet Dill Mustard Sauce, Beef Carpaccio with Cheese and Rocket Salad, and Oriental Duck Salad.
Moving on to mains, there were dishes like Beef Steak Medallion with Creamy Sarawak Green Pepper Sauce, Norwegian Salmon with Lemon Butter Sauce, Tiger Prawns with Butter Garlic and Black Pepper, Beef Wellington, New Zealand Mussels, Korean Oysters, Monkfish Fillet, Supreme Duck with Creamy Fruity Curry Sauce, and many more. The New Zealand Mussels were yummy, having been topped with generous amounts of cheese, then baked. Each mussel was served atop some pasta alfredo for a complete, sampling-size dish. Those who enjoy local flavours will be happy to see the tandoori station, Chicken Biryani, Sup Gear Box, Dim Sum, Yong Tau Foo, and Satay available too.
As for dessert, sweet treat lovers will be spoilt for choice. An array of cakes, cookies, puddings, and ice cream adorned the tempting table. These included Pumpkin Cinnamon Cheese Cake, Red Dragon Fruit Mousse Cake, Honey Bread, Christmas cookies, Log cakes, Ginger Creme Brulee, Christmas Pudding with Vanilla Sauce, and Gelato. We created our own pairing of warm apple crumble with vanilla ice cream, which was exactly how you’d imagine it to be – great.
