New Year's Eve Dinner @ Traders Hotel, Kuala Lumpur

2017 has flown past.. Lots of good food have been eaten and lasting memories have been made.

There is no better place to end the year on a high and ring in the New Year, than at Traders Hotel Kuala Lumpur. Make this a night to remember, with an inspiring 5-course New Year's Eve menu at Gobo Upstairs complemented by a spectacular view of the KL skyline.



Your gastronomic journey begins with a decadent amuse bouche of smoked salmon and caviar bruschetta, followed by a light yet delicious Apple fennel salad with marinated lobster, pickled onion and salsa verde. The lobster has been marinated in olive oil, lemon juice, green apple juice and celery, for a refreshing twist. Absolutely loved how festive this looked too, with the green and red on the plate.




Instead of the usual heavy-based cream soups, Gobo Upstairs Head Chef, Chef Mun delights with his Chicken consomme with chicken dumpling and scallion oil. This clear soup may look unassuming, but it was light and elegantly smooth. What elevated this soup to the next level was the chicken dumpling parcels which were juicy and bursting with flavour.



The best way to enjoy foie gras (in my books) is to have it simply pan-seared. The perfectly cooked foie was rich, luscious and sublime, and was complemented beautifully by the sweet poached pear in red wine. A match made in heaven. Absolutely fabulous!



For mains, diners get to choose between the Pan seared cod fish and Grilled 150-days Grain-Fed Tenderloin. Being the meat lovers that we are, we both went for the latter. Besides, the kitchen team at Gobo Upstairs always does a great job cooking the meat, so who can resist. The tenderloin, cooked to medium rare perfection, was juicy and tender and served with a smooth truffle pomme puree, baby carrot, asparagus, broccolini and Madeira sauce.





For dessert, we were served a glorious Ricotta cheese cake with mix berries compote. We thoroughly enjoyed this well-balanced dessert, as ricotta gave this a lighter touch; creamy without being cloying.
