Attention to cheese lovers! Ending on 29th!! Quick before it’s too late!

Say Cheese!

Cheese is a type of food that not many can gate. In fact, it is adored by many and exists in many complimenting forms, be it as an one part of the ingredients for pizza & pasta or as the ‘leading role’, in cheese cakes and so on. We crave for its gratifying taste as it melts in out mouth or the affectionate aroma it carries hot from the oven.

According to cheese.com, there is evidence that cheese had actually existed as far as during the prehistoric age. There is no claimed or known inventor of cheese and it is more likely that cheese was ‘accidentally’ created when milk coagulated or thickened. Today, cheese comes in hundreds of different varieties, made from either raw, skimmed or pasteurized milk of the cow, goat, sheep, and even those of buffalo, horse and camel.

Still, when it is time to indulge, one just have to give in to the calling of food food and that’s exactly what Grand Margherita has to offer with its Say Cheese promotion at the Orchid Garden Coffee House, happening 20th till 29th January 2011.

The Buffet lunch that pays tribute to ‘everything cheese’ starts off with 8 enticing cheese tapas. Chicken wings with Blue Cheese Dip, Risotto Croquettes with Mozzarella and Smoked Turkey, Smoked Salmon Cheese Roll and Mozzarella in Carrozza with Anchovy Sauce are amongst the ones not to be missed out.

Adding a pinch of Japanese to the buffet, there’s also the Cheese & Chicken Floss Maki as well as the Cheese, Cucumber & Crabstick Maki.

For main course, diners are set to be spoilt for choice as the buffet line expands to host more than 12 wonderful dishes. Braised Beef Brisket with Danablu Butter & Creamed Potato, Oven Baked Lasagna with Chicken Bolognaise & Cheese, Gran Moravia Crusted Cod Loin with Sauce Vierge as well as the Slow Braised Lamb Shank on Soft Polenta with Cheese are some of the leading casts for the show.

Not forgetting the simple yet equally satisfying selection of cheese with condiments and freshly baked bread and cheese stick for diners to mix and match with their favourite types of cheese.

At the show kitchen, our chefs are also readt to serve you your choice of pasta, be it spaghetti, penne or fettuccini stopped with your favourite type of sauce.

The gastronomic journey ends with a high note at the Dessert station where diners would find Coffee Cheese Cake, Green Tea Creme Brulee & Sweet Fruit Chutney, Oriental Carrot Cake as well as the Classic Cheese Cake ready to satisfy. Our pastry chef is also ever ready the Dessert Station to fold out piping hot Cheese Pancake.

This year, mid autumn festival happens on 22nd September 2010, a Wednesday. Yet, celebration mood can be felt much earlier and if you’re up to celebrate with your loved ones, let your destination be set at one venue long known for its palatable dishes and delightful choices of food.

Starting from this Sunday, 19th September till 22nd September 2010, Meisan Restaurant, Grand Margherita Hotel will let diners slip back into the wonderful memories of past mid autumn festivals with their array of traditional as well as modern dishes.

Chef Ricky, executive chef for the hotel shares with us some of the items not to be missed when the buffet starts this Sunday.

At the start of the buffet line, appetizers in the likes of Selection of Cold Hors D’oeuvre, Chinese Cold Lobster & Chicken Roll, Cold Lobster with Fragrant Salsa as well as Cold Flower Crab on Ice tops the mouth-watering list. Not a fan of cold entrees? Opt for the Spicy Thai Chicken Feet or Deep Fried Crispy Potato before setting your sights and appetite on the soup counter.

Next stop, the soup counter offers you the tantalizing choice of Shredded Duck Soup with Ginger & Chive the creamy Seafood Veloute with Tomato. The unorthodox later pick would be a delightful surprise to the predictable choices of Chinese cuisine.

At the showmanship station the chefs are on standby, chopping board and all with a wide array of BBQ specialties from their Chef John Lee. Sesame Chicken, Char Siew Chicken, Roasted Crispy Duck and Braised Beef Brisket are among his wonderful creations.

If your food thoughts are at the piping hot notch, the chef at the Yong Tau Foo station would be there to serve you your choice of the Steamed Bean Curd, Stuffed Bean Curd, Deep Fried Fish Ball, Fish Cake Slice, Tang Hoon, Kueh Teow or any combination of the ingredients available. The Chick Koo Teh counter is yet another wonderful choice of hot, cook-as-you-order food if you’re in the mood for some homely dishes. Let the chefs mix the ingredients of chicken, lettuce, deep fried bean curd stick and different types of mushroom into a bowl of Chick Koo The, the Meisan way.

Coming back to the buffet line and arriving at the Hot Station, pleasant surprises await in the form of authentic Chinese recipes combined with creative western dishes. The Fish Slice with King Soya for example sets the ideal choice of tradition-revisited while the Stir Fried La La lets you have the rare opportunity of sampling this local delicacy, fresh and cooked to perfection.

If your westernized palate kicks in, their choice of Pan Seared Lamb Chop and Boiled Pasts with Grilled Chicken Slice & Cheese would be more than satisfying. You would also be tempted to try the Curry Beef with Potato and the Rock Salt Prawn with Spring Onion & Chili at the Hot Station before moving on to the next station.

Nothing says tradition more than porridge yet at Meisan Restaurant; this traditional dish is anything but plain. Available in a choice of red rice, potato, white or peanut porridge, you are your own chef as you choose between the different condiments to add. Fond memories mix well with the available condiments of salted peanut, yu char kueh, century eggs, salted eggs as well as salted vegetables with black beans.

Do not be intimidated if a small queue forms at our Sushi Bar as it is a sign of appreciation for the fresh sushi and sashimi you can handpick or have the chef prepare for you. This break out of tradition seems fitting as Japanese food offers a healthy option for those who are watching their weight or calories count.

Any mid autumn festival is incomplete if there’s no mooncakes so Chef Ricky has that area covered as well. Sample the chef’s pick of mooncakes in different flavours, paired best with the company of your loved ones. But the desserts train does not stop there. Allow yourself to be tantalized by the aroma and unique flavours of their Durian Pancake and the Mango & Pomelo with Coconut Cream dessert. Then sink your teeth into Sweetened Sweet Potato & Yam or the Deep Fried Sesame Ball. Fresh seasonal fruits add a beautiful closure to the scrumptious celebration dinner.

While we may not be able to pinpoint the rightful beginning of the mid autumn festival, what matters today and hopefully in future is the joy of having celebrated the festival with people that matters most to us. Let this mid autumn festival be the time where you can once again share a joyous moment with your loved ones.

Seats are being grabbed fast so pick up the phone and call the hotel’s F&B department at 082-423 111 ext 1109/1158. The buffet is priced at RM79++.
