Urban @ Istana Hotel

Last Friday I was at Urban, Istana Hotel for dinner menu review(during lunch! how odd? oh well, mum didn’t want to sit through the traffic at night) . It was such a rainy day ! I kept having this thinking that the heaven wants to remind us about the tsunami that happened .. Everything will be okay, Japan.

1 good reason to go to Urban for dinner : Everything’s nett priced so you can skip the rough calculations before ordering. :D

Minted Calamansi Soda (RM8.5)

_MG_3897

Serai Iced Tea (RM10.5)
It’s actually pretty addictive. But there’s so many things in the drink, there isn’t much liquid in it.

_MG_3882

Serai Tasting Platter (RM30)
6 sticks of satay (Beef, lamb or chicken), fried squid and make-it-yourself bruschetta.

_MG_3930

Deep Fried Crispy Brinjal with Serai Spice (Regular: RM13 , Large: RM21)
For someone like me, who hates brinjal (Yes, seriously), this is actually good. Like, REALLY good. Not much of the mushy, slimy gross taste of the brinjal either!

_MG_3955

Mango Chicken (Regular: RM20 , Large: RM30)
It tasted and looked like fish. And soaking it in the sauce makes it pretty spicy. Be careful there.

_MG_3911

Crispy Skinned Salmon (RM35)
Served with potato cakes, sautéed asparagus spears and crisp bread with roasted capsicum dip.

Steamed fish in lime sauce (Market Price)
This is really really good. Although, it’s really spicy due to the chilli. It’s a very Thai dish. Sour and Spicy.

_MG_4008

Pavlova (One of their selected cakes of the day)
Home baked. You can taste the lovee. (:

_MG_3996
