Revisiting S Kitchen Steak House @ First Subang Mall

I'm in for another great dinner when Sunny boy said that he was very tempted looking at my post of a special dinner prepared by my dear friend Kayvin at S Kitchen Steak House.

And to satisfy his temptation, I brought him there, for my second time at S Kitchen.

With menus on our hand, we were busy chatting away - even before placing our orders.

To realize how much we were missing in each other's life, he had just updated me that he is gonna be a daddy for the third time! His wife is due to deliver to another baby boy next month!

.... and now only I know larhhh?!!!

*gave him a very garang stern look*

Garang-ness cannot tahan lapar also.

Quickly place our order with Kayvin's recommendation on the pasta.



Complimentary fresh home baked bread

 

Lavila white wine to celebrate him being a daddy again!



My choice of healthy appetizer - Scottish Smoked Salmon Salad!

It has got sliced smoked salmon with thin sliced fennel, capers, onions, mixed salad and lemon dressing.

We both loved the fresh smoked salmon - salty but yummy when paired with the salad.

The pickles and olive brings some balance into the salad and salmon.

This is one of the best salad I've taken! :)

Sunny boy choice of meat - Mixed Sausages Platter.

Selection of smoked chicken, chicken chili spicy and lamb cranberry sausage served with mashed potato and mixed salad.

Thumbs up for the lamb sausage! It was really good. Love the smell and taste of lamb-lamby aroma.

The smoked chicken on the other hand was pretty normal - it was, just okay.

Chicken chili spicy sausage is wayyy toooo SPICY for me!

It was like they stuffed whole bunch of cili padi in it, or... do they???

I love the side of mashed potato - taste so good with the side sauce. Yuhhhmiee!!!

Kayvin recommended that I have the Spaghetti Chicken Mushroom Aglio-Olio.

It has got olive oil, garlic, white wine, chicken, wild mushroom, parsley and parmesan cheese.

And it was the STAR of the night!

Unlike some aglio-olio which is either too dry, or too oily, this pasta is perfect.

Every single bite of pasta with accompanied chicken and mushroom makes us wanting for more.

We hope there is room for more though, as I unwillingly stopped after a few spoonful coz my tiny tummy can't take no more.

And how could we live without dessert? Had the traditional Creme Brulee.

When my spoon went through the crispy layer of creme brulee, I knew it's gonna be good!

It cracked the top coated of burnt sugar topping, and went inside the perfectly smooth egg custard.

Wuu-la-laaaa.

This is the second time I had creme brulee at S Kitchen and they still WOW-ed me!

Have you tried some failed creme brulee? All watery or in semi liquid state ? Eeks!

But fret not! As S Kitchen will serve only GOOD, SATISFYING and DELICIOUS desserts! :)

 By the time we finished dinner, you can tell that I'm completely and utterly satisfied!

Look how clean my plate was!

 



Dear friends, please do not freak out seeing the above photo.

I DID NOT lose weight, nor looking like an African child (how ET Chew put it).

I guess it was just my hair, or the blouse I was wearing,

or the photography angle that made me look skinny.

Or probably, I used Photoshop to blow up my head on purpose just to

make my body look smaller!

Ah-haaa!!! Think about it!!!

So.... Thank you Sunny boy for the wonderful dinner!

And congratz for being a daddy again!

More to come....??? Ho Ho Ho!!!! :P

(you know I'm just pulling your leg)

S Kitchen Steak House @ First Subang Mall

I'm so honoured to be invited for dinner at S Kitchen with menus

handpicked by Kayvin and coordinated with the chefs in the steak house.

Kayvin had also prepared the very first dish himself - two huge scallops

from Japan which he specially ordered for this occasion.

He kinda picked everything that I love eating!

Thanks Kayvin for putting up this lavish dinner for us!

---------------------------------------------------

We were surprised to see the table setting

prepared by the host and our waiter.

Guess Kayvin was shocked too.

Using potpourri roses petals to form a heart shape,

candle LIGHT (not candlelight),

and champagne color roses.

It is romantic but somehow an "inappropriate" table setting.

May be more suitable for Valentine, proposal, anniversary,

but not for a get together dinner with friends. Haha!

While waiting for dinner to be served,

took photos of roses from up, down, with flash, without flash,

on the potpourri...  it's just me experimenting Canon EOS 1100D.

The host recommended white wine for the night.

Lavila.

For a person who don't really know how to drink wine,

I find it sweet, and very nice on the throat.

Very good recommendation I would say! ;)

 

Rachel Lee was a little tipsy after this...

  



With the chef Kayvin Sia and my buddy Rachel Lee against the "backdrop" of wine bottles..



I call this the tomato bread, but the right term for is

baked bread with sun-dried tomato served with parsley garlic butter.

I had two piece of this when I should only have one,

looking at many more dishes coming!!!

The size of scallops we had that day.

It was 3 inches wide, and 1 inch thick!

The scallops flew all the way here from Japan.

Nope the scallops did not fly, they took an airplane. *swt*

This dish is Kayvin's creation.

Believed he had put in much thoughts, planning and execution on this.

When it arrives on our table, Kayvin found that

the chef accidentally swapped the topping.

The first scallop served with mango salsa topped with fish roe that resembles caviar. 

The mango salsa by itself is lip-smacking already!

Topped with the caviar added some saltiness and aroma into the fresh scallop.

Second scallop served with mashed green peas and topped with sunny side up quail egg.

I love the mashed green peas, and gawd it was delicious to be paired with the quail egg!

By looking at our plate, it's obvious that we truly enjoyed the scallop dish!

But seriously, by having the scallop alone is sufficient to take my breath away!

It was huge... thick... fresh... uh-la-laaa~~~

Would love to see more of Kayvin's creation soon!

Mushroom soup next!

Thick. Flavorful. A little on the salty side.

But it was yummy.

Just had to finish it.

That's what making us unnecessarily full

since there's three different main course awaiting.

Our first main course is my favourite fish - cod fish.

Served with grilled mushroom and asparagus.

The fish is fresh, but was it my senses a little off that day

or the fish isn't that tasty by itself?

However, when caccompanied with the gravy and mushroom,

it taste simply good!

Next in line is the New Zealand braised lamb shank

served with vegetables and mashed potato that looks like poop!

(woopss.. so sorry)

The meat is tender and juicy.

I love the lamb-lamb aroma.

Couldn't make up what's in the gravy but according to Kayvin,

it has got some wine in it?

It's so delicious I could finish this plate by myself if I hadn't take

the mushroom soup earlier.

Hahaha!

Since we're in a steak house, it doesn't make sense

not to have steak for dinner.

Kayvin ordered us wagyu beef.

When he got the first cut, I "eewww" silently coz usually

I do not take my meat raw.

It has to be well done, or medium well if I'm feeling adventurous.

But somehow I was attracted into trying out this

medium rare steak ordered by Kayvin.

Proved to be a wise step.

It melts in my mouth, and the peppercorn sauce - slightly sweet,

slightly peppery, compliment the beef perfectly.

The dish was mouth watering! 

To wrap up our amazing dinner,

which has already been amazing with the entree, soup and main courses,

each of us were served with three desserts.. nicely presented in a long plate.

Yes.

Not one,

not two, but THREE desserts!!!

It was specially made for us, as this three dessert combo is

only available in the New Year's menu.

Despite my tight blouse and skirt showing my big bloated belly,

I couldn't resist the dessert and immediately indulge into

the tiramisu, homemade vanilla ice cream with almond honey brittle and creme brulee.

I personally love the tiramisu with the Beryl's chocolate basket.

(don't know how they named their tiramisu, but from today, that's how I gonna call it)

I was way too full to enjoy the whole vanilla ice cream,

but if only I could, I would want to finish up the almond honey brittle!

It would be a perfect Chinese New Year biscuit!

May be a little sweet by itself, but that's what the vanilla ice cream is for right?

Creme brulee was nicely done, very traditional.

I finished the whole thing!

Thanks Kayvin for the arrangement, and S Kitchen for granting our craze for dessert!

Beautiful dessert

The tiramisu with Beryl chocolate basket

Irresistible.. even when full capacity... isn't it?

The creme brulee

We were all smiling, happy, and very much contented

after the lavish dinner.

On a side note, S Kitchen is very lucky to have Kayvin in their kitchen.

I believe he's gonna spice up their existing menu (which is already wonderful by the way)!

I wish I'm as radiant looking as the rose.. :(

no doubt... this dinner is...

yummylicious!!!
