We’re here today not just for the view but for some magnificent gastronomic experience by Chef de Cuisine, Chef Siti Arini.

On the menu itself, the dishes she’ll be preparing sounds absolutely astounding! I can’t wait to show you what we’ve had.

Mediterranean Bread, Green Olives Roll & Seed Loaf

We were served with some bread to ease our hunger along with some noteworthy butter that sparked our taste buds.

Truffle Bordier Butter & Yuzu Bordier Butter

Both were lightly salted but with individual uniqueness. The Yuzu Bordier Butter tasted elegant and fresh while the Truffle Bordier Butter has hints of truffles for flavoring which was my personal favorite choice of butter.

Starter:

Pea & Parmesan Panna Cota

No it isn’t a fancy-dressed ‘kuih talam’ but a fun starter to begin with to set our game into the gastronomical experience throughout our dinner. You’d get the savory from the Parmesan and sweetness from the pea along with the other elements in this dish.

First Course:

Pearl Tomato Compote served with Honey Yogurt Cheese, Nitro Olive & Basil Crumbs

The tomato was peeled and poached leaving some hints of cinnamon in it paired beautifully with the Honey Yogurt Cheese. It was almost like having a caprese salad.

Second Course:

Portobello Tortellini served with White Truffle Shaves, Truffles Malto & Truffle Froth

As stunning as it looks, it tasted phenomenal. The starter was just so truffle-licious I just don’t know where to begin with. The Portobello mushrooms and satisfying cheese tortellini was just such an earthy and refined dish.
Can this be served in a regular portion?😜

Foie Gras Cherry served with Gooseberry, Forest Nuts & Pochon Tuille

Yes, those cherries were entirely made out of foie gras. Such a remarkable presentation to enjoy one of the world’s great culinary delicacies.

Third Course:

Cured Hokkaido Scallop served Garden Pea Mousse & Black Caviar

Simple yet flavorful. A really delicate plating and joy to the palate.

20171207_213147-01
Brittany Lobster Tartare served with Crustacean Bisque, Ash Oil & Saffron Aroma

The shallots complemented pretty well with the lobster tartare as you get some of the sweet acidity from the shallots and the light salted tartare with nice bits of lobster chunks which gives some texture to it.

Palate Cleanser:

Iced Avocado & White Gazpacho

Refreshing, palate-cleansing work of art that instantly helps you savor your meal with its zesty-minty aftertaste. Oh, it was served in a bowl made of ice!

Soup:

20171207_212108-01
Double Boiled Broth served with Chicken Log & Herbs Sachet

The plate would first be served with the Chicken Log and Herbs Sachet then the broth was carefully poured into the soup plate. What surprised me the most was the taste of the Chicken Log because from the look of it, I wasn’t expecting a burst of chicken flavors at all.

Forth Course:

The main course has 3 options you could pick from or you could simply upgrade to the Wagyu Tenderloin dish with an additional charge of RM 100.

20171207_221248-01
Moulard Duck served with Braised Brown Lentil, Fresh Fig and Apple & Moroccan Spices

Loving the combination of the figs and apples perfectly complemented the taste of duck meat as it has naturally rich-tasting meat and fatty skin which go particularly well with something sweet. Not to mention the Braised Brown Lentils! So good.

20171207_221343-01
Sous Vide Australian Lamb Loin served with White Asparagus, Smoked Garlic, Creamed Russet & Pecorino Flakes

The lamb was beautifully tender and flavorful with the Creamed Russet played a role on this dish, it makes things much more exceptional.

Wagyu Tenderloin served with Brittany Lobster Tail and Hazelnut Foam, Grey Chanterelle Ragout, Grain Mustard Baby Spinach & Romesco

Here’s the dish we mentioned above. Don’t worry about the doneness, that could be adjusted to your preference. As for the Brittany Lobster Tail with Hazelnut Foam, it’ll be an additional charge of RM 80 but it’s totally worth it that’s for sure.

Fifth Course:

20171207_224205-01
Spanish Goat Cheese served with Charcoal Meringue, Pistachio Cookies & Orange Jelly

This creamy rich dessert treat was filled with pure, tangy goat cheese flavors. It’s like nothing you’ve had before!

20171207_225028-01
Green Tea & Blueberry Macaron, Peanut Butter Raspberry Bon Bon and Velvet Carrot Cakes

It was indeed an unforgettable dining experience here at Tangerine in The FACE Suites from the modern decor, stylish layout, attractive paintings adorning the walls, overall service to food. I would definitely return again for more.
