After gym at 7pm, I was rushing to Jaya Palace, the newly opened chinese restaurant at the LYL building beside the Naza Motors along Federal Highway for a dinner. This dinner is a rematch bewteen me and Mr. L who apparently was out drunk by me the previous dinner we had at Il Divo in Sri Hartamas. I was introduced to this wine drinking group by Mr. W, one of my best customers when I had a booth in Bangsar Village in December last year. Not only he had bought RM1k worth of chocolates from me, but he had also bought me cheese and nougat.
According to Mr. W, Mr. L was embarrased to be out drunk by me because he's a seasoned wine drinker and there are 2 others who are excited to meet the girl who out drunk him. So I met another 2 new friends at Jaya Palace, one being a MD of a wine importing company, and the other an advisor whom has been in the wine industry for more than 20 years. The waitress ushered me into the private room of the restaurant. The restaurant is quite impressive with elegant interior design and the private rooms are equipped with plasma tv, sofas, private toilet and also 1 or 2 waitresses personally serving us. Damn, I feel like someone important! haha....
What was the real highlight of the dinner was the food and wine! We had salmon yee sang, cold crab, really big oysters and abalone for starters. Can you imagine we had 4 dishes for starters?!! Then, came the best dish of all - Sharks fins soup. The speciality lies in the broth of the soup as pork is used and the sharks fins are in combs. Not shreads, but the whole comb of it! I have had 5 combs. It was crazy. Everyone had 2 bowls of it since there were only 5 of us. After that came the suckling pig, peking duck, fish, fried frogs and lotus leaf rice. The dessert was the mango puree with pomelo and strawberry. What a way to end a meal! Throughout the dinner, we had different wines to go with the food. We started with a bottle of white wine and then red all the way. I can't remember any names except for the bottle of Xisto from Portugal, rated 98 points out of 100 given by some wine expert I presume. The food & wine was really heavenly. I had never had such good sharks fins in my entire life and I think the dinner minus the wine would have cost more than RM2k. We had 6 bottles of wine in a night till 12.30 midnight!
This morning, I experienced the lack of sleep syndrome. I felt so fatigue and lethargic that I wished that I could lay on my bed and just sleep the entire morning. Moreover, my tummy wasn't feeling well. Must be either the cold crabs or the oysters - couldn't be the 5 combs of sharks fin I had.... I was also as busy as bee today, meeting the box supplier, the printer and then Mr.Nelson, the owner of Nelson's - the famous corn in cup?!! We have some dealings but it'll be kept a secret till it comes out in the market. Right now, there are already 60 outlets nationwide. That's good for a company that relies on corn and waffles.
That's not the end, I was also invited for a dinner in this same restaurant this Friday by the MD with a RM3.5k menu! This is a must go dinner. Another round of sinful indulgence!
