Somewhere Classy For Christmas ???

Loads of budding cafes and restaurants has appeared over the past few months ...

 

I would like to bring you back in time ... reminiscing our good old Equatorial Hotel.

While the hype continues along the tourist belt of Tanjung Bungah, let us not forget The View.

It's semi buffet style where you can linger freely choosing your starters and appetisers.

Choice of soup, fresh oysters, salads and sashimi ...

Not forgetting its all time favourite smoked salmon.
Credit given that for a buffet style in Penang, there is always enough helping for everyone.

Choice of dressing and sauces to go with your meal

Sorbet served before your main course

Nicely done steak - nothing to complain about.

Do make sure you don't over do on the buffet spread, not leaving any space for the main course.

Not a very classy thing to do but I suggest you go easy on the buffet spread ... have the main course and if you feel like another round of the spread ... why not ?

Dessert people ... leave some space for the sweets ...

Your are game for a romantic Christmas dinner ... live music as you dine :-)

Merry Christmas Foodie Fans

&

A Happy 2015 New Year !!! 

Ferringhi Garden - Perfect Ambience

 Guess this is the place to impress :-p

So, when it comes to impressing, money will need to be spent.

 Food is good.

Service a so - so ...

They have reverted to hiring foreign workers so there are communication issues.

Try hard enough, you will get want you want.

 If you are a tourist and you are strolling along Batu Ferringhi and you don't feel like Chinese food and you feel like pampering yourself ... this is the place to be ...

Rumor has it that they have a most reasonable wine list, so why not ? 

 Lamb was overdone, like most places in Penang :-(

So if you want it medium, the trick is to order medium rare.

 Dessert was flawless ...

For a non-dessert person, this Creme Brulee was exceptional :-)

Do order.

 Ambience as mentioned - perfect.

Good for scoring points whether it is with a romantic partner, business partners, future-in-laws etc etc ...
Look around you, everything is very in sync with nature.
The wood they use to build up the extensions are high grade stuff.
Nice to just walk around and see how they recycle nature with a tinge of finesse.

Bon Apetite !
