(Food Review) (Shoutout) The KL Journal Hotel Dinner Review

Monday, November 6, 2017

Hello guys, how many of you love staying in hotels?

How many of you actually love eating in hotels?

I personally love staying in hotels coz most of the time, they have the best lighting for photoshoots. And, their meals are not too shabby.

In short, I love hotels' fluffy pillow and white blankets.

Last week I got the chance to tour around The KL Hotel Journal.
Thanks for the invitation.

Place may be slightly hard to find but I would recommend you to visit the place as you get to be more acquainted to the Malaysian life! ^^.

(Yeay coz I get to experience the variety of food and shopping heaven)

This is the first thing I see when entering the hotel.

Accomodation details:

Each floor will have interesting Malaysia objects

Do you see the fruit at the Green light? ^^
There are also stamps (who's a collector?), road signs etc.

Interior and decor looks surreal as each painting in each room tells story of different parts of KL.

#3: Clock can be extended to speaker which is cool.

#4: Little journals hand drawn and tailored by staff of KL Hotel Journal. That 555 note book, totally relatable for a Malaysian like me XD

#2: Cool and more convenient and hidden safety deposit box

#1: Saving this for the last coz I LOVE the shower head the most!!!

Dinner Review:

I love the idea of a rooftop dinner with a view of the pool and KL sightings.

Their recommended set is #1.

1. Curry Fish Head Set

This set is for 4-6 pax @ RM50 only!

The rice, papadem, & acah are refillable.
The curry fish head was acceptable for me.
As a spicy eater, I personally don't find it spicy but of course my non-spicy eater friends would find it somewhat spicy for them.
The bad: Those who eat out everyday would prefer it to be more flavorful. I personally find the curry fish head just ok coz I was more irritated when I kept biting on fish scales. I know bones in fish are unavoidable BUT I must say the lighting was too dark coz we sat at the far end of the pool.
Suggestion: Maybe the chef can consider making the fish head curry sauce to be more concentrated coz some actually like it of a more concentrated based.
The good: I was surprised that the ingredients to make the curry fish head sauce was actually condiments found in the Western part such as Cardimum etc. Bravo for that!
Overall: Looking for improvement in this dish coz I have had quite some curry fish head from different places thus my expectation for this dish would be higher.

2. Grilled salmon

It is yummy only if there is more flavor to it. I think it is a bit too less for a salmon lover like me.

3. Fried tapioca

It is more sweet and abit dark for my usual liking but my friends love it a lot. When eating this, I was actually comparing it to the fried tapiocas at Taiwan Shilin Street. I actually prefer the Taiwan Shilin Street fried tapioca as it is made more salty and I personally am more of a savory person that's why.

To end the post, lets have a selfie with the KL view ^^
