Chin's Stylish Chinese Cuisine Fine Dining, QE II, on Je & jefu buRfday~

last weekend...
it's da buRfday weekend of mOnster's parents...
je fu's burfday on 15th May, and je's falls on 16th May.... both of em borned in the S-A-M-E year... :)
sweet, right?


due to babie Geon Wul is sick...
the celebration with je's frens has been postponed...
we didn't know what to eat...
thus, I proposed this Chinese Cuisine Fine Dining place to ko ko...
he bought us dinner on Saturday nite...
a very costly one.... :P
this restaurant is situated in QE II...
just at the left-hand-side of QE II ( right-hand-side is the western-pizza-place )
the interior design is marvellous...
with the beautiful sea view at the night...
dinner could be romantic if not going with such a big gang like us... :P
I particularly like their concept of hanging all the painting on the ceiling... instead of walls...

I got no idea who is the painter/ artist of those art works...
whether or not they are all from the same artist...
all of them are rather creative and nice !

in order to serve the purpose of being a Fine Dining Place, the whole restaurant is set with dimmed light...
last but not least, the chandelier simply made the whole environment even more elegant and cosy *winkz

(lub chandelier <3>
a Happee-Familie-Pic before kick starting the l-O-n-g Dinner
' je fu ' with the beautiful sea-nite view...
the tables are placed with all the beautiful design plates...
they're all SO beautiful....
I purposely chose to sit at the place with this Zebra Plate...

sad to know that, the plate would be collected back and change to normal dining dishes before the course start...
-___-""

and later on, daddy saw the selling price of those plates showing on the shelf at rm 180/ each !
*.*

there are few set-course-meals available...
from the lowest price of rm 88 ++ per pax ( minimun 4 pax ) to rm 188 ++ or more ( with lobster and foie gras )
we chose the rm 88 set E which recommended by the person in-charge...
once decision made, little menu will be served....

I wonder such a big gang sitting at such a Huge Table would consider as fine dining too....
bit sien.. as I would need to stand up through out the dinner for my foods...

* recommend not to go with such a big gang like us ( 16 adults, 4 kiddos )

when Jesper is so cute sitting there and winks....
see what is the mOnster doing....
he he

the Course started with 4 Cold Appetisers,
followed by 3 Hot Appetisers,
Specialties,
Main Courses
and Dessert ~~

Cold Appetisers
Garlic Cucumber
Bang Bang Chicken
I supposed they're using boneless chicken tights to make this dish...

tops of heaps of nuts, sesami and challots... very nice and would definitely trigger your appetite... :)

Human Shredded Seaweed
marinated with chilli slices and garlic...
Century Eggs in Grilled Red Pepper
I don't eat this, but I can see the rest very enjoying it...

Hot Appetissers


Heavenly Blessed Joysticks
Abalone, mushroom, fungus and etc has been cut into small pieces in served in lok lok style...
the stickies are marinated in the Sze Chuan Spicy soup in the bamboo...

I don't think this dish is written on the menu...
we couldn't eat any Needle Mushroom... but tasted the beef cubes in this Sesami Spicy Gravy...
Sesame Prawns on Toast...
this is yum yum yum....
I don't eat prawn, but still couldn't help to finish the whole pattie is less than couple seconds...
the sesame outer layer is simply crunchy...
the shrimp filling is matching well with the toast....
simply awesome...

Specialties

Chin's Aromatic Crispy Duck

the waiter shredded the duck into thin slices in front of us...
meanwhile, the waitress bringing the lemon water for each of us to wash our hands...

the side dishes such as, the steamed thin wraps, spring onion, cucumber, and sweet duck sauce are prepared...

similiar to Beijing Duck...

this is so yum yum yum !!
the duck meat itself tasted so well-flavoured and aromatic !!
by this stage, all of us are 90 % full~
this is ridiculous, as the main course is not even served yet !


Main Course


Double Flavoured Wild Fresh Water Fish
daddy and koko like the fish so so much !
it's not sea fish but , Pati (cheah zui hu)
the greenie part is salted veggie... which tasted slightly sour and spicy...
whereas the red part, is more spicy, Sze Chuan style...
the fish is so soft, fresh and well-cooked ! both the chillie and salted veggie are thinly chopped with garlic and shallot


Cumin Mutton Skewer
the chilli is the super-spicy-and-hot-from-Vietnam...
me the spicy-lover, accidentally eaten a little piece of the chilli...
my whole mouth gone numb... the spicy level almost made me cry... this is serious...
I kept drinking stewpig's draught/ beer/ warm water... none of them could help...
it took several minutes for me to 'recover' ...
I forced daddy, ah yee, je fu, stewpig and ko ko to try one... ( whom are Chilli Padi lovers )
none of them bother to give me a damn.... !@##@$#!!@#$!!!$%%


Sauteed Vegetable with Red Rice Yeast
Stif-fry Haun Choo Leaves with red-bean-curd and chilli...


Crab Meat with 'Cloud Ear'
Stir fry crab meat with egg and black fungus...



"Gele Mountain" Hot Chicken
Deep Fried the chicken dices first before Stir fry with dried chilli, peanuts, shallots and sesami...
this is not really hot but very delicious afterall...
even the nuts are all well-flavoured


Fragrant Plain Rice
the rice is very aromatic and nice...
little mOnster finished 1 and a half bowl of white rice by himself before any dish is served !
no gravy, no nothing... can imagine how good is the rice !


Dessert


Pumpkin Cake with Sweetened Red Bean Paste


this is nice.. the red bean paste filling won't be too sweet but just nice...
none of us can finish the little piece of dessert...

as our tummies have really been filled up with the appetizers and main courses...
tho it's a bit pricey...
but the foods that served are really with better quality and well-prepared...
which will not disappoint at all...
the total bill for 16 of us amounted to rm 1800+ *sweat
thanks to ko ko for this expensive dinner !
this is a good try afterall...

Linna and family were joining us as she wanted to celebrate burfday with je je...
