As often as how Sentul used to be viewed at as the ghetto in town, YTL has certainly contributed in any way possible to recreate a town, by the upscaling standard.
What does Elegant has to offer? Roast Pork Ribs… It might be oddly a dish in line with other more luxurious selection. Truth be told that the style of preparation is very much eastern, yet it has some influence of western too.
The interior is designed in a casualty ambient setting, with stoic fabric and blant wallpaper. Other than the exposed see-thru glass panel into the chaotic fully-equiped kitchen, there is nonetheless little to be impressed of the atmosphere.
As much amused I wanted to be, I did have my reserve of this place. The essentially last (undetermined) dish came to be the first on the table. With my little cooking skill and vague imagination, I was picturing a bubbly purse egg with translucent white of an outer, and a golden center york expressing warmth in its presence. However what was laid in front of me could be nothing more than a similarity of a mamak-stall telur dadar, flat and over-fried.
What else went wrong… recommendation of dishes weren’t really representing the theme of HongKong crusine, and a resemblance of “trying to hard to fit the malaysians’ taste bud”.
“With this kind of place, people come with expectation. 100% is no longer an option, the chef has to deliver 110% to be certained that each signature dish lives up to its publicity.” commented by another chef…
What went really wrong… a mousse dessert appearing to be a soupy dessert. Is it justifiable of a different contour of a dish?
Detail, detail, detail… missing! An uncovered plugs on the flooring causing staff constantly tripping over (hazardous if they happen to handle warm dishes)… Teapot placed out of reach of customers, yet staff are not attentive enough to refill the cup… And unattended frontdesk.
If behind any successful man is a smart woman, that saying truly stays… And that legs of his wife too!
