D & D get hitched!

We were recently invited to a Wedding dinner at The Westin KL.

The last time I attended a wedding at the Westin was like 6 year ago and it is nice to see that this place has not lost its charm at all.

The Westin looks as spanking new and well maintained as it did on the day it first opened.

That was when a friend at our table whips out this contraption.
(OK la, you guessed it. All YOU readers PLUS Cumi, are all 100% smarter than me. A handbag hanger!)

Cumi: I told you so... (smug)
Ciki: Pfft... :P

The reason why I love the dinners at the Westin is mainly because they serve Fusion. After one too many Low-Sangs and Chinese sit down dinners, this Foie Gras Duck Roll, Scallop, Unagi Salmon Roe and Truffle Mushroom Parfait Starter, was like a breath of fresh air!
It tasted divine.

This is the braised crab roe broth (hence the orange colour) with scallop and fish maw. Delicious! What a difference a thick, murky soup makes ..!

Next was the Steamed Canadian Cod fish with Lobster Emulsion. How amazing does that sound.. I wondered to myself, how many Lobsters they had to melt down, exactly to get an Emulsion.. ?!

Mongolian Lamb (was it really from Mongolia?), King Prawn with Asparagus, Parcel Vegetables, Japanese Udon with Escargot..
All tres, tres yum!

From the smiles, you can tell it was a fantastic dinner!

All in all, a truly lovely wedding(but which wedding isn't) ... and I learnt what a handbag hanger looks like.. though I doubt I'll ever use one.. (erm, my handbags are all either really too tiny or too huge for that hook.. lol)
