Every year at around this time, we celebrate MIGF, i.e. The Malaysia International Gourmet Festival in Kuala Lumpur. The MIGF has been around since year 2001. In the beginning, this festival was initiated in response to the industry’s need for a rejuvenation of the then, rather obscure fine dining scene. Though Malaysians have always enjoyed [...]
Now corporate travellers to Kuala Lumpur, can mix fine food and business under one roof, especially if they are staying at the G Tower Hotel. G Tower Hotel is the up and coming choice for corporate and leisure travellers visiting Kuala Lumpur, as it has both functionality as well as a swanky vibe to it. [...]
As I stand quietly, patiently, camera trained in the right direction of Chef Daniel and Sage’s open kitchen, my focus can now fall on its mostly exhilarating food: a decadent slice of Hiramasa King Fish with smoked Avruga caviar Cream that’s the stuff of dreams; a mélange of Consomme of Foie Gras with Fresh Mushroom [...]
Bistro a Table is housed in a modestly sized space and its splashes of vintage French posters, sparse furnishings, low-hanging modern decorations and lazy French vocals played throughout the night, inspires a certain Gallic joie de vivre.

Millesime, which opened late last year in a grey space in one corner of Solaris Dutamas on Mont Kiara, is what we call a mellifluously named restaurant (the word means “vintage” in French) with familiar innovative dishes on the menu that people have come to recognize as the trademark of a well-travelled, even eminent, chef [...]
I am over the moon! One of my all time favourite fine dining restaurants has been voted 8th on the list of Top 20 restaurants, according to the Miele Guide 2010! I feel that they totally deserve this privilege to be ranked way up there amongst restaurants like the famous Iggy’s from Singapore because their [...]
The estate of Sette Ponti lies in the heart of the Chianti zone, fifteen miles northwest of the city of Arezzo just past the village of San Giustino Valdarno. The Via del Monte, known locally as the Via dei Sette Ponti, leads into a beautiful hidden valley and to the estate. The name Sette Ponti, [...]
Truffle butter. It’s not some snooty food obsession to turn up your nose at. It is a cult initiation that only the privileged are handed the password to. It is an illicit love affair with no way out. It is a taste like no other. One sniff. One slather. You are totally hooked. Close your [...]
