CHICKEN Chasseur | Spatzle | Autumn Vegetables CHICKEN, main course that you will hardly go wrong with. Fried chicken leg done right – crispy crackly skin, shielding juicy, tender meat beneath. What raise our attention are these homemade German spaetzle, a type of pasta made from eggs, flour, water and salt. Mini and doughy, goes well with chasseur sauce served along.
Reasons to check out the reopening of Skillet at 163 KL and their modern European cuisine menu: exciting seasonal menu; contemporary and stylish setting; beautifully plated food; must try the Venison Pithivier and do have a look at their juice pairing by Chris Chung here.
Next is the Lobster, an absolutely flawless dish, both in terms of presentation and flavours. Extremely pleasing to the eye, the butter poached lobster is embellished with celery, apple, edible flowers and rutabaga (swede) with mascarpone. To go with the lobster, a sauce made from fermented apples with fish broth is poured tableside, finished with a few drops of kombu oil. Beautiful, delicate flavours.. loved it!
Skillet at 163 has recently launched their new Spring 2019 Lunch Menu. Guests can enjoy a 2-course lunch for RM55+ or 3-course for RM70+
A cuisine-agnostic restaurant which injects wild ideas into their food.
Reasons to visit Skillet Fraser Place: Chef Raymond’s signature Asian-Western fusion in new manifestations with items that engage flavor, texture, and aroma. Don’t miss the Humble Onion off the starter menu and the dramatic experience of Textures of Chocolate, this month with an autumn twist.
The Degustation Menu offers a great progression of flavours and textures and showcases some fantastic seasonal produces. Priced at RM300 per person (food only)
Reasons to visit: In general a contemporary yet casual setting with recipes that never fail to impress. Don’t miss the textural blend revealed in the Mushroom or the Peanut Butter Mousse. The two-course menu is priced at a reasonable RM 55; the three-course menu is priced at RM 70. Both can be paired with a glass of Champagne and wine for RM 80 more. Finally, if you are feeling like getting a bigger picture of Chef’s vision, you can try the Degustation menu, available both at lunch and dinner, for RM 138.
If you're looking for some fine dining but with a more casual setting and at prices that will not cause your jaws to drop (especially the Day Menu), then this may be just the place for you. Ambience was great, food was top-notch, service was faultless by Shaun and the wait staff...except for the demeanour of one condescending female wait staff (which I will not dwell upon) that put a little damper on what was otherwise a flawless service and experience....coz that's how I want to remember it...as a truly lovely experience! ^_* Definitely a worthy venue to keep in mind (for dinner) when you have a special occasion to celebrate. A great place to hang out with friends over lunch (for a more wallet-friendly meal) and a few mocktails (or cocktails)...and you might just want to stay for dessert...especially the not-to-be-missed visually stunning Texture of Chocolate :)
Reasons to visit: The complex blending of local and international flavors in one luxurious menu for the season, and don’t ever miss one of chef Raymond’s desserts (reason enough to visit on their own).
