The good doctor wanted to treat myself and Lenglui to dinner and raved about the Petroliam Club. We had been there previously on singing gigs with our Six2Eight accapella group but not tried the food. We were the only ones there. Great location on the 42nd floor of the Twin Towers overlooking the city to the north and west. food was okay. Salmon went well with a Shelley Beach white blend whilst chocolate dessert was not overly sweet. Meat quality on the steak not bad but not great. It was nice to feel as thought the place had been booked out for us, but not sure I'd return quickly. The food was not that spectactular, though a quick tour of both the Chinese and Japanese partner restaurants looked promising for a future visit.
This blog started 2011 as "Fine Food and Wine in Kuala Lumpur", a diary of food and wine adventures in KL. Through travel, this got subsumed into a broader global context. The blog looks to document food, wine and travel experiences mostly in Europe and Malaysia, also Japan, Scandinavia and India. I try to call it as I see, eat and drink it; if it's tasty, value and worth a return, I will look to say so. Type a city, country, restaurant, wine in the search box, see if I've been there?
Mission
Mission: To respond thoughtfully and responsibly to my experiences of drinking and dining at restaurants with regard to the quality, service, preparation, presentation and overall experience received thereat. The standpoint is one who respects the crafts of the chef and sommelier and who seeks to understand their choices in the kitchen and cellar and grow in knowledge. In this, I will seek to be fair, reasoned, direct and constructive and aim to keep my ego in check on our mutual journeys through the worlds of food and wine.
