Hokkaido Scallop Carpaccio
Blue Crab Meat and King Crab Leg
[Palate Cleanser] Lemon Sorbet with Mint Leaves
Poached Black Cod Fish & Stuffed Chicken (served with Mango Salsa sauce, Green Pea Puree and Neutral Juice)
Double Chocolate Hazelnut Praline (presented by Passionis)
The 5-course dinner was meticulously planned and well-thought out. Guests started with an appetizer crafted by Chef Petr Feher, European-born celebrity Chef. The Scallops were just-out-of-the-shell fresh and paired beautifully with the citrusy elements. The dinner was then graced by the presence of de-shelled Blue Crab meat; though simple, the natural seafood sweetness of the Crab spoke for itself.
The Stuffed Chicken was alright for the main course but we unanimously agreed that the Black Cod was toothsome. It possessed the melt-in-the-mouth texture but a pity that the Salsa sauce did not manage to bring it to the next level.
Special arrangement for dessert was made and Passionis was brought in to introduce their Double Chocolate Hazelnut Praline, a dessert that Chocolate lovers would go gaga. We washed it down with a hot serving of Coffee.
