"Good things to eat...one of the really nicest things almost life is the agency nosotros must regularly halt whatever it is nosotros are doing together with devote our attending to eating." says Luciano Pavarotti inwards Pavarotti, My Own Story
How apt indeed coming from that human being alongside the peachy appetite.
I must acknowledge I oftentimes observe myself rushing inwards betwixt piece of occupation assignments, grabbing a quick seize alongside teeth that I observe that repast together with thus unsatisfying similar I never ate anything.
At Petite Millie, the infant sis of the fine dining stalwart Millesime, I reckon I may convey flora novel life to eating since everything from our luncheon definitely sated us completely.
The bistro is ane of the many novel faces inwards the 1 Utama mall that late went through a cosmetic nip together with tuck. Earlier known equally the "old wing", it has gone through a large revamp that seen roughly quondam timers fade away (what happened to Mark's Assam Laksa?) together with novel places crop upward at every corner.
Fervent diners would convey visited Millesime where Max Chin holds court. Well known for his inventiveness together with honour towards ingredients, it is no surprise that the bistro offers a breath of fresh air inwards the KL dining scene.
While inwards terms of looks it bears non much departure alongside what is currently inwards style - cement minimalist walls, dark boards together with etc, it is the bill of fare that draws us in.
First of all, their undercover weapon is the Poutine. "Apa tu?" you lot may ask.
As I was enlightened past times Splashie Boy (not the most gourmet of persons), this is something flora inwards the E side of Canada (he ate it earlier inwards Ottawa) - chunky french fries drenched inwards brownish gravy. He in ane lawsuit had it for luncheon simply off a nutrient truck (termed roadside chip wagons per wikipedia). While wikipedia describes it equally beingness served alongside cheese curds, he remembers simply eating it without any. Nevertheless, it stuck to his nutrient retention since it was ane helluva tum satisfying meal.
Here the humble Canadian fast nutrient snack gets a fashionable revamp alongside all those luxurious flourishes that pushes it upward the gourmet track.
We sampled the Poutine Cheek (RM26) - a deadly combo of half dozen hr braised beef cheek, freshly Earth pepper together with a dash of truffle oil. Incredibly comforting for the tummy, who tin tell no to such a lethal mix of ingredients. I specially liked the sliced onions together with the 2 types of mushrooms added inwards the whole mix - shimeji together with clit mushrooms.
Aside from this variety, you lot tin select from 5 to a greater extent than types including ane called Daniel B (I suspect it is named after a certainly Mr. Boulud) that has an egg mollett, ratatouille. There is fifty-fifty a cute ane called Very Atas One! alongside thinly sliced beef, blueish cheese crumbs together with caramelised onions. Prices attain from RM20.50 to RM26 for these items together with volition live on plenty to feed ane starving tum or 2 non together with thus hungry persons.
If Poutine is non your thing, don't worry they convey the Tarte Flambee - their version of pizza that reminds me of Flams. These sparse dough smeared alongside creme fraiche together with dissimilar toppings. We endeavor the Avocado & Crab (RM19.50) that is topped alongside crab meat, avocado slices together with lemon thyme oil. I similar the sparse texture of it together with its combination is non also overpowering together with thus it makes a prissy appetizer or a low-cal repast for a small-scale eater. On its side, they serve salad leaves, sliced cherry tomato plant together with olives, dressed inwards a piffling olive oil. There are to a greater extent than varieties (5 more) such equally the classic Pissaladiere alongside a toll attain from RM16.50 to RM19.50.
There were only 2 of us but nosotros stuffed our faces in. Since ane could non move out without ordering the mains together with desserts, the tummies were filled to the brim.
For the main, nosotros select the "Mac together with Cheese" that is described equally twisted inwards the bill of fare (RM34.50). This was essentially penne tossed inwards gorgonzola cheese cream alongside a scatter of sunflower seeds together with topped alongside 2 perfectly seared scallops. Eat this hot equally it tastes together with thus proficient - creamy together with aromatic that you lot continue scooping it upward to the oral cavity fifty-fifty though nosotros were together with thus full.
Since Petite Millie is really novel (she only opened her doors to the globe final calendar week on the 3rd twenty-four hr menstruum of Chinese New Year), the dessert bill of fare is non create yet. Instead nosotros had their solo dessert, an apple tree crumble (RM16.90) served alongside amarena cherry H2O ice cream. We dear this - soft together with crumbly pastry that encases apple tree slices alongside raisins together with of course of pedagogy the H2O ice cream is to croak for. I reckon nosotros volition live on dorsum for desserts side past times side calendar week when they unveil it. Just reading the bill of fare makes my oral cavity H2O - I spy pasty appointment together with toffee pudding, lemongrass pumpkin creme brulee, huckleberry ricotta beignets (that french cekodok), caramelised packham pear together with salted caramel breadstuff pudding together with etc..., you lot larn the gist why I am making a supply trip here.
There's loads to consume here, they serve tartine sandwiches on buttered position down breads, at that spot are salads together with nibbles such equally Max's classics similar romaine lettuce together with smoked piquillo pepper twine alongside seared tuna loin, crushed feta together with gazpacho vinaigrette, soups, mains such equally oven roasted lamb loin served alongside aubergine lentil mash, bourguignonne agency beef bavette together with etc.
Prices for the Tartine attain from RM20.50 to RM38. The RM38 ane is large plenty for 2 to part that comes piled alongside gourmet garnishes. Mains attain from RM28 to RM40.50 which is the beef bavette. Sweets are priced from RM12.50 to RM16.50.
Service is polite together with fast. I similar how they also replicate Millesime's purse "container" that lets you lot shop your handbag at the bottom of the table. You may demand to continue your amount on it if you lot sit down nigh the entrance. However if you lot sit down nigh the corner, it should live on prophylactic plenty if you lot continue it closed enough.
