Four times to Dish in addition to I reckon it's non the final visit.


I peeked dorsum at my archives. Way dorsum inward 2009, Dish (Delicious Ingredients Steak House) blazed into the city's dining scene. At that time, it was the decadent os marrow in addition to caveman portions of steaks that got everyone's tongues wagging. Unfortunately I didn't warm upwards to the house fifty-fifty later on a few visits as I could non fathom eating my steak good charred on the outside. Means also much carbon that volition slow kill me off.


Fast forrard to 2012. KL's fickle dining crowd pick out moved on to shiny novel places. Enter Steve Allen in addition to the ball game changes for Dish.





Who is this Steve chap you lot must travel asking?


Well, he is a friendly English linguistic communication bloke looking to explore our Asian shores. Most importantly, he brings with him the sense of working amongst Gordon Ramsay. Most couch potatoes volition know of Ramsay from channel surfing through Hell's Kitchen or fifty-fifty Masterchef USA. Ramsay may travel loud in addition to rude (it's all television set people!) simply he is a talented chef who groomed many immature chefs such as Marcus Wareing, Jason Atherton, Steve in addition to the listing goes on.


Before Steve joined the Delicious Group, he was the caput honcho inward Ramsay's outpost inward the prestigious Claridges Hotel. He is enjoying his stint here, exploring our local fare amongst gusto.


The other twenty-four hours he tried guava in addition to side yesteryear side affair nosotros know, it is on this week's tiffin bill of fare - a cool rendition amongst white chocolate H2O ice cream that nosotros slurp downward to counteract these hot humid days.





For those unsure well-nigh Steve in addition to his menu, nosotros recommend an piece of cake means to larn acquainted amongst his food....try his tiffin bill of fare that is available daily including weekends.


Prices won't cripple your wallet simply it's definitely means inward a higher house that commons budget repast you lot pick out at the nutrient court. For the character of nutrient you lot get, nosotros reckon it is a skillful deal. Two courses are priced at RM65, field iii courses (how tin i immature lady dessert!) is at RM75. Both choices come upwards amongst a loving cup of java or tea, in addition to petit fours (marshmallow in addition to chocolate truffle).


The tiffin bill of fare changes every fortnight. We sampled the electrical current bill of fare in addition to dearest the mild tasting curried carrot soup amongst the crispy squid served on the side. The chargrilled mussels are perfectly cooked in addition to non also rubbery amongst an apple tree in addition to garlic broth that you lot wipe upwards amongst the toasted ciabatta bread. The chargrilled sirloin is a dainty division for tiffin (too much would hateful nutrient coma!) that is topped amongst the lobster butter. A must is the triple cooked white patato chips - crispy on the exterior amongst a fluffy centre. Even the pan fried salmon fillet is beautifully cooked amongst a crispy peel in addition to soft pinkish flesh. We terminate amongst a cooling guava soup in addition to a toothsome almond financier (hot from the oven) amongst roasted pineapple in addition to creamy mascarpone H2O ice cream.


We had sampled the seared duck thorax from the final tiffin bill of fare in addition to loved the accompanying ginger carrots amongst braised duck leg broth. Such a comforting dish that had us all wishing at that topographic point was to a greater extent than of that fortifying broth.





Once you lot are convinced, caput towards hither for the dinner menu. You start amongst eggplant fritters studded amongst dark sesame seeds amongst a sour cream dip. They are skillful in addition to fifty-fifty the eggplant hater loves them. We also dearest the decadent herb butter amongst bits of ruddy pepper in addition to herbs then travel careful to non over indulge on bread. It is difficult simply to a greater extent than skillful things are coming.


For those seeking verbalize decadence, larn for the ballotine of foie gras in addition to smoked duck (RM46). The creamy melt-in-the-mouth foie gras is wrapped inward smoked duck slices in addition to served amongst the toasted brioche. Spiced pineapple on its side helps alleviate the richness of this dish.


For something means much lighter, larn for the seared in addition to marinated tuna (RM42). Shaped similar a "D", the fish is paired amongst a piquant pickled radish, decadent crispy quail eggs in addition to french beans. There is an Asian slant to this dish amongst its soy sauce in addition to ginger flavours. Another calorie-free selection is the classic Italian vitello tonnata (RM36), sparse slices of marinated veal topped amongst tuna mayonnaise in addition to served amongst argula leaves in addition to croutons.


My favourite is their signature sauteed scallops (RM48) as I've eaten this for iii times. The curry pulverization dusted succulent scallops are served amongst a creamy cauliflower puree (mash without the carbs!) in addition to crispy turkey bacon in addition to almond crumbs. Thin apple tree slices in addition to apple tree vinegar caramel sauce dotting its sides aid cutting through the rich taste.









My showtime introduction to the mains yielded i theater favourite, the tabular array salt baked cod (RM69). Encased inward a tabular array salt dough crust embedded amongst lemon slices, the fish is juicy in addition to succulent. It is paired amongst a ruddy pepper in addition to lemon sauce that is delicious. Eat each piece of the zucchini in addition to peppers as they all pick out a beautiful natural sweetness.


Steak of course of report is a must. My showtime visit, I tried a tenderloin that was perfectly cooked amongst beautiful chargrilled marks in addition to a juicy ruddy centre. You larn choices of dissimilar sauces, such as truffle beef jus lobster butter, their bernaise sauce in addition to etc simply I dearest eating my steak plain. In subsequent visits, nosotros sampled smaller sizes for the tiffin gear upwards that was as good.


Depending on your mood, larn for the sides (RM18 each) such as the creamy white patato puree, triple cooked chips, truffled mac in addition to cheese or my large favourite, the charred Brussels sprouts amongst chillies in addition to anchovies (RM18). Love these vegetables that were then fragrant in addition to delicious.







Last simply non least...desserts that are then good.


I oftentimes detect restaurants e'er terminate amongst rather slow desserts simply here, I detect the endings to travel spectacular to brand me desire to provide over again in addition to again.


Hard to narrow downward my favourite dessert as I dearest them all. There's the strawberry mousse, granita in addition to jelly amongst olive petroleum H2O ice cream sprinkled amongst dark pepper (RM21). I similar the calorie-free flavours of this combination that makes it piece of cake to complete it yesteryear yourself amongst non much guilt. Equally less guilty is the pineapple carpaccio, kokosnoot sorbet in addition to tuille (RM21), a refreshing process that reminds me of pina coladas inward the sunshine beach.


For genuinely decadence, larn for the mutual coldness chocolate fondant, poached mango in addition to yoghurt sorbet (RM21). This is akin to a chocolate mousse amongst a creamy flowing pith that is topped amongst a crunchy nut biscuit. Poached mango cubes cutting through the richness. Unfortunately this is overshadowed yesteryear the bright caramel chocolate delice, lime H2O ice cream in addition to raspberries (RM21). Voted the large favourite, the rich chocolate gustation is wonderful paired amongst the tangy lime H2O ice cream in addition to the lime rind that dots the ruby ruddy raspberries. A must for chocolate lovers!
