I am always on the lookout for a great steak dinner. My personal choice of doneness – medium rare.

To be safe, I made my dinner reservation on the website. It would be disheartening if I couldn’t get a table after the enthusiastic online ‘research’ I did online for reviews of the place. This eatery serves not only steak but also huge lobsters and their best seller – the Wellington dish. Turns out you need to pre-order it one day before but I was pretty clear on what I wanted.

A steak.

My reservation was confirmed almost immediately and they even sent me a WhatsApp message an hour before the chosen time to remind me of it. The restaurant is within walking distance from Sovotel and is certified as HALAL. Took me less than 3 minutes to walk there.

I chose the Stanbroke Black Angus Ribeye (250g) with the Au Poivre sauce, a creme brulee and a COKE to wash it all down. The waitress needed to speak louder cause I honestly don’t know why these girls (including the Sovotel lady) were so soft while taking the order. Is it a Gen Z thing? I don’t think so.

I really enjoyed my meal because not only it was aesthetically pleasing but the taste was just luscious and delectable. The meat was prepared well and timely. It was a dinner with mindfulness as I savoured every single bite and chewed on my meal properly.

The whole dinner cost me RM233.15. They even put my receipt in a nice sleeve. I would definitely come here again if I am in this part of town in the future. Perhaps the lobster on my next visit.
