Chef Harmizi and G Cafe’s signature Ramadhan dishes
I started my buffet meal with some spicy Kerabu…
Various types of Kerabu
Prawn Kerabu
Tauhu Sumbat
Tempeh – my favourite~ 🙂
Sup Ekor – this was a pleasing dish but I personally would prefer a stronger spice flavour.
Chef Harmizi’s signature Nasi Briyani
I utterly loved the Nasi Briyani. I found the spice flavours well balanced. We were told that the rice used in this dish is soaked overnight in milk and yoghurt to enhance the flavour and render a smoothness to this dish.
Fried Singapore Bee Hoon
Ayam Percik Kelantan
Beef Kerutup
Kari Ikan Keli
Lamb Rogan Josh
I found most of the curry dishes to be most enjoyble with depth of flavour coming through, my favourites being the Lamb Rogan Josh and Beef Kerutup. Both the lamb and beef meats were very tender.
Meanwhile the Kari Ikan Keli was also very flavourful and there as no muddy fish taste.
Turkey Rendang
An interesting dish was the Turkey Rendang. I was a lil wary of the lean turkey meat being dry but surprisingly, it was quite tender and had absorbed the curry flavour very well. Who knew turkey could be made into a rendang? 🙂
Chicken Kapitan
Deep Fried Fish with Thai chilli sauce
Some vegetable dishes to balance out all that meat…
Vegetable Au Gratin
Mixed Vegetables
Penang Rojak
Laksa Utara
Pasembur
Laksa Utara Action Stall
Various Breads
Now onto desserts….
The standout dessert for me was the Durian Mousse. A must try if you’re a durian fan. 🙂
The dessert spread…
Assorted Jellies
Durian Mousse – an impressive dessert!
Pickles, Dried Fruit and assorted Fresh Fruits
Chocolate Fountain – everyone’s favourite. There is just something about poking various candy/fruits on a stick and coating them in chocolate!
Bubur Kacang Hijau
Gelatomio Ice Cream (with super cute ‘googly eyes’) Will definitely appeal to kids and adults alike 🙂
Angklung – Traditional Musical Instrument as part of their deco
