By the time you read this post, you yourself would be ruminating on why this girl needs to have so many narcissistic birthday celebrations. Where as by the time this day arrived,…
Lydia: What do you want to eat tonight?
April: I dunno. I’ve been having so much good food, I have no idea what to eat.
I had so much food, not only can I feel the muffin spillover effect around my pants, but I felt the cosmic collision of flavours in the organ embedded beyond my solar plexus.
We chanced upon Dain Ti Hill, nestled in the corner of the top shopping floor in Pavillion. We dumped the initial plan to have Thai, Korean, Turkish or whatever there was to celebrate a moment here:
The place looked like a Chinese restaurant that fettered with a Shanghai night club. The Neon Blues coming together with the Reds to orchestrate a play of violet and gold illuminations thoughout the place.(Though this made it hard for me to take pics without a filter!)
When asking the friendly waiter what did they serve, we had a choice of Chinese/Japanese Fusion food. Interesting. We really do have enough of those Taiwanese fusion or Hong Kong fusion dines in K.L. and this restaurant after all is the first branch they’ve opened in M’sia from Taipei itself.
A salad of nuts, chunked up grape fruits and salad. It’s something that tastes really fresh, with a mild zesty taste. Instead of expecting a sourish taste to the mix, there was a surprising bitterness possibly because of the grapefruit.
A sweet mustard cream sauce with cashews, peppers and deep fried chicken. If you like something like your usual sweet and sour dish with mustard notes towards the end of the taste, I recommend this
“Wong Kum Tau Foo” echoed Mr. captain as we ordered this dish. You’ve got your usual white tofu here. Braised with alot of Salted Egg Yolk. Gets abit gooey and filling the more you eat it. Two or Three ladles of this scooped on your dish is enough.
This topped the cake (although it ain’t cake). The sauteed Imperial Beef in Imperial Sauce. It was sooo tender….not melt in your mouth tender but chewy tender. Caramelised Onions, lightly peppered on the top. The taste is well..imperial. A great 7.5 stars out of 10 beef dish.
Inclusive of a drink and rice the bill came up to about MYR90.00 a pretty decent price for a Chinese Style dinner. I’d like to go back and try the Emperor Rolls the have a full page on! Definitely going to let daddy know, he’d love the beef!
Off then to have hot chocolate and another slice of birthday cake, (Which I didn’t blow candles off… I swear mom…honest) while waiting for Mei Ai’s call. Didn’t think she could make it with the heavy rain and her choir performance and all.
And here is a picture of me and Lydia. We’ve been celebrating every birthday together since we were 18! Hsu Pheen and Melissa must be really missing us now… but thanks very much to Lissa for this post on me
















I’ve been there before. The food is quite nice and the sundae is great! However, the bill is too expensive for me
hyperX : Didn’t get to try the sundae. It’s a definite pricey thing if you go with drinks and other additional stuff. You’re looking at a meal prices at above average class restaurants considering it is after all, in a mall.
