For me fine dining is more lik you paying for the decor, the professional chef & sometime imported chef & etc.

You sometime pay for the environment & romantic setting etc rather than the food quality (Well certain restaurants for sure nice-lah) but still..the pricing.....That's not to the average M'sian income earner reach liao...

Sometime the skill need to prepare the dish are important. One plate = 3 bite but take hefty time to prepare.

lots of good suggestions here .. biggrin.gif

wanna share my experience at Favola @ Le Meridien KL recently .. having their specialty truffle dinner menu, 3 course meal about rm125++ per person, which is not eligible for Starwood discount  doh.gif

this place doesn't live to average expectation .. the food and atmosphere is so-so while staff friendliness is ok but not attentiveness enough .. almost ended up paying other people's wine tab .. doh.gif

too kind to call it as fine dining here .. the only plus perhaps is for wine lovers since LM sharing the Wine Bank with Hilt smile.gif

my vote goes for Villa Danieli for the best, quiet romantic Italian cuisine or go for Prego for a livelier atmosphere ... smile.gif
*
Ohh great you are sharing Favola experience here. This is new restaurant replace Nafourah right?

yup, Al Nafourah is no more .. they should keep the place and add value to it .. the setting is perfect d, Favola seems like half-heartedly done .. the private tent which gives quite a privacy now no more d ..

Favola's pizza is a bit ordinary and the toppings is not so generous .. prefer Prego's wood fire though i don't like it at first coz it looks slightly overburn and taste weird .. tongue.gif

i think this one is a new website listing dining outlets under Starwood brand, with their latest promotion : http://www.eatdrinkandmore.com/ smile.gif

I'm waiting St Regis to open in MY on 2014. Hope Starwood can include Regis dining outlet entitle to use Starwood Privilege Guest. Its loooooong way to go. In term of Pizza, I like California Pizza Kitchen more than Prego. Never tried Favola, so I dunno how it taste.

@goldies


You are too late to bye bye la. I like Nafourah ambience and atmosphere but I dunno why they have to replace it. Now no more hotel with middle east cuisine outlet. All Italian and French.

interesting, but i find when Malaysian say they like Italian food, they're often referring to pizza alone. that also Domino's or P.Huts. tongue.gif maybe in some cases, add spaghetti. LOL.

Yup agree too. Italian = Pizza. Other than Pizza are not Italian tongue.gif

The a la carte menu at Ciao is not that good anyway. Up to date the most authentic Italian I've had is still Prego in Westin KL. Sage is fusion fine dining not Italian, and the bill is well over RM300 per pax if you want a lavish dinner.
