Fine Dining

Sorry that these are few pictures that I manage to snap photo, since i do fine dining way too often that I forget to take pictures, not that they are important but I am aware that readers will enjoy more if they can look at the photos of the place.

And from these photos I will try to recall as much memory as possible on my culinary experience from ambience to the taste of the food. There are places that i frequent and there also places that I just recently discovered and will visit them more in the future.

Recently when I was shopping around Pavilion i found a new nice steakhouse , its called Angus House. The franchise came from Japan if I am not mistaken , their steaks are quite pricey .. starts from MYR90 , but their pastas are not that expensive .. just around MYR30 i think

what more interesting about this steakhouse they have all kind of beefs that cost around MYR200,MYR300 and more

I ordered a full course meal wagyu steak that cost around MYR200+ , quite worth it considering that my wagyu comes with a soup, 2 appetizers a fish and salad , and of course a tiramisu for desserts


This is the fish as appetizer

Voila , the best Wagyu steak i've ever tasted , the next time I come i will definitely order a bigger portion

The tiramisu .. anyway i am really looking forward to dine in this restaurant again.. the place also offers alot of privacy since they arent many people there..

This is where I had dinner later, in Alexis ,Gardens. The food are not bad but lack of choices ..there was a lot of people here , most of them seems like just came back from work judging from the way they dress.. I guess if you can eat here after work (I assumed that they are white collar salaryman) that proves that our economy is good and the people are well to do.


Good thing about Alexis they have Pavlova cake , which is currently my favourite cake.. Serai in Empire Shopping Gallery is the only other place that i know that have this..

*updated I just had Red Cod Miso at Alexis and it is very nice! the best Cod Fish i ve ever tasted

The next day as I was heading back to Kuantan I dropped by at Victoria Station , Jalan Ampang (on the way to KL exit towards Kuantan) for my lunch.

their sizzling steak is my most favourite ... reasonably priced and taste nice.. interesting ambience too , they tried to make the place feel and look like a train station , you can even dine in mock trains.

By the way what makes me love Victoria Station so much is this.. their western crabmeat sharkfin soup my most favourite sharkfin soup but i hope they dont use real sharks....


Interesting stairs in the new Zenith hotel in Kuantan. They invited us to check out their rooms a week earlier and was given complimentary dinner at their cafe (I wasnt in Kuantan so only my sister and my mother went) Anyway as soon as I came back to Kuantan i went to try out for myself.. the supervisor or something advised us to take their buffet which cost around MYR70 per head not including service taxes and other charges .. imo its quite pricey for Kuantan rate since this is just a small town.. but I guess the wide variety of food offered will justify the price , since they have from Malay food to Japanese food like shashimi, sushis etc.


The ambience of the hotel's cafe is fantastic .. imo the nicest among Kuantan hotels that i ve been to.. next time I ll visit there again to try their ala carte.

oh yea just to share some places that I love to dine in Kuantan :

Shahzan Inn - the best spaghetti bolognaise (beef/chicken) anywhere in the Malaysia (well i guess taste could be subjective)

Crocodile Rock - love to chill here , the place is cosy , the price are reasonable , but the place is always full even in weekday (sign of good economy) my favorite food here is their nachos and potato dauphinoise

East Grill - the only place i would have my steak welldone is here , I love their tenderloin welldone , aside for that i love their teriyaki salmon and mushroom soup
yup my favourite Teriyaki Salmon

Le Parisian - The only french restaurant here , nice french food but sadly the ambience is too simple

Italian Bistro (Hyatt) - many choices of wine and your only place for authentic Italian food

Sherwood - they have many weird Switzerland steaks that I cant even pronounce and many choice of sauces for their steak , this place is the choice for local expats

I really love their Shashimi..
their mushroom soup is so so only east grill's is alot better
Grilled Steak Fillet Cheese Fondue , if i am not mistaken it is somekind of Switzerland food but it was very nice
Grilled Fillet Steak with Whisky sauce

E&E - their pizza used to be my favourite when I was young, but I go there for their oriental chicken chop , fried rice and sandwiches

these are few photos I manage to find places that i ate recently ... there are more places that i went to but sadly didt take any pictures .. hope you guys can enjoy with the lack of pictures and information of my review .. I am not a food blogger afterall
