Valentine Day Menu at David Brown's Restaurant & Tea Terrace @ Penang Hill, Penang.

Do you have any idea where to dine during Valentine's Day for this year? It's just 5 weeks away from Valentine Day - 14.02.2016 (Sunday). It is also falls on the 7th day of Chinese New Year this year. 

Let me proudly introduce you to David Brown Valentine's Menu of 2016:

VALENTINE DAY MENU

STARTER

ROULEAU DE PRINTEMPS

Cod Fish Paper Roll & Mango Spring Roll

As a starter, I get to try two types on one plate. One with deep fried spring roll skin and one with paper roll. Personally, I love the one that wrap with paper roll. 

SOUP

LOBSTER BISQUE

Lobster Essence & Slipper Lobster Meat

Always love their bread as it always serve it warm with cold butter. 

As for the soup, it has a rich lobster aroma when it was served. For the first sip, I can taste different kind of herbs being added to the soup. Personally, I feel that it's a little bit spicy for those who cannot take spicy food. For me, it tastes alright. In each bowl of soup, it consists of lobster meat and crouton.

1ST MAIN COURSE

CHICKEN ROULADE

Poivrade Sauce & Potato Confit

For the first bite, I feel that it's contain strong spice in the stuffing but the more I try, I fall in love with it. 

(There will be two main dishes for this menu and the first main course is fixed.)

2ND MAIN COURSES

There are 3 options for 2ND main course. You can choose either one out of the following three:

STEAMED CHITEAU COD

Seafood Veloute & Chive Pomme Puree

This will be my first choice out of the 3 options available.The cod fish that I had does not have the strong fishy aroma. The sauces was just the right amount to go with the cod fish. Personally, I love the mashed potatoes with chive. It is nicely done for my liking. This is a nice plate of combination of colour and taste. 

OR

LAMB STEW

Balsamic Portwine & Potato Confit

The lamb stew is also a nice choice to choose. As the lamb was stew till very soft and tender. I think those who loves tender lamb stew will love this dish.

OR

PAN SEARED GRAIN FED TENDERLOIN

Australia Potato crisps & Aujus

DESSERT

ALWAYS SWEET

Chocolate Strawberry Mousse & Sponge

To end the meal, we had chocolate strawberry mousse and sponge cake. It is basically sponge cake in the first, third and last layer. In between, there are the chocolate and strawberry mousse. It is quite a refreshing cake. It came with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream and assorted fruits such as strawberry, blueberry, blackberry and cape gooseberry.
