Dinner at Qba

A couple of weekends ago, we had dinner at Qba located at Westin Hotel. It was our first time there, so we were looking forward to a nice dinner with friends. I was quite trigger happy the whole night, taking photos of all our food and stopping people from eating first. Here are the pictures.

Heard they had to fly in a special team to paint the walls this way

We had a full course dinner of starters, mains, side dishes, dessert & coffee. We were all stuffed at the end of the meal.

Wine to kick things off

Salad with blue cheese

Usually, i do not enjoy smoked salmon. But this time, i really enjoyed it. I fell in love with the first mouthful. It really melts in your mouth.

It was a very satisfying meal at Qba. The steaks were all right, though Prime is still top of my list.

Birthday Dinner at Prime, Le Meridien

Had my birthday middle of last week, so the bf treated me to a nice dinner at Prime, Le Meridien in KL. We braved the traffic after work, and it took us an hour being stuck in the jam to reach there. (Just the short distance between Bangsar and Le Meridien, mind you!)

Prime

It was my first time there and after hearing all the good reviews about their steaks, i was really looking forward to the dinner.

After we ordered, we were served 2 kinds of bread with 3 types of butter. I enjoyed the black pepper cheese bread. Yums!

For starters, we ordered the Caesar Salad:


We ordered the Truffle mash potato to share. Couldn't finish this one:


I had the Australian Black Angus Gourmet Pasture Fed Beef ribeye steak (quite a mouthful there). Sounds like one angry cow! And it was sooooo delicious. Spoiled me for any steaks in future.

Medium-well

The bf had the Wagyu beef shank. Very tender and it really melts in your mouth!

This is the bone marrow from the beef shank:

We both had a really good dinner here and we both agreed that the ribeye steak was the best. After making payment, the receipt was given to us in a little packet. Great idea! It's really the small things that counts.
