The Press Room Bistro, Pavilion KL

The Press Room Bistro is a modern interpretation of a European Bistro. The menu highlights simple French-European food using the finest ingredients, served in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Grills from the charcoal-fired Josper oven dominate the main courses and are complimented by light salads, delicious soups, fresh pasta dishes and sumptuous desserts.

In November, The Press Room Bistro introduced a selection of new dishes prepared by Chef Kelly Delaney, their new executive Chef at The Press Room Bistro. We visited the restaurant last week to sample some of their new offerings.

A wide choice of wine by the glass is offered here, as well as a good selection of beers on tap

To start, we had the Saffron Seafood Soup (RM28). The soup was rich, creamy and smooth, similar to a bisque,  and came with generous amounts of seafood such as mussels, clams, squid and 2 large prawns. I'm impressed. ;)

Chef Kelly tells us that she tries to source for local ingredients whenever possible, such as the seafood, poultry and vegetables that she uses in the restaurant.

The beef cheek (RM46) is already proving to be one of the more popular items with diners here at The Pressroom Bistro.The beef cheek, which has been braised in red wine, is tender and gelatinous, and is served with smooth potato puree, roasted vine ripened tomatoes, tarragon and horseradish cream.

A classic French favorite, the confit of duck leg (RM36) here is served with Du Puy lentils, beetroot confit, and pickled cocktail onions. The duck confit was juicy, flavorful and had a lovely crispy exterior.

For dessert, we had the deconstructed lemon meringue tart (RM16) - powdered gelatin is added to the tangy lemon curd to help it set, and is served with creamy Italian meringue, and a polenta and thyme crumb.

Cappucino... the restaurant uses coffee from illy.
