Marché Movenpick

Dining out on New Year's Eve is highly distressing especially if you're staying in the city. Although the destination was The Curve at Mutiara Damansara, and the dining place was The Marché Movenpick Restaurant, I didn't fret an inch. I was fully armed and prepared for the worst...

... we walked! From our condo at Damansara Perdana to The Curve, a journey which took about 20 minutes! By the time we reached The Curve, millions and billions of cars were already double-parking by the streets. Phew!



Marché Movenpick is a Swiss restaurant. Marché means marketplace, and the interior of the spacious restaurant is similarly themed. Walk through the small entrance and you're greeted with the ambience of an ang-moh "pasar". The entire premise is colourful and vibrant, with many stalls and sections offering a variety of food.

The marché is divided into many stations/stalls with their own specialty, i.e. Grill, Seafood, Pizza, Pasta, Salad, Pastry, Fruit Tree, Caveau, Grotto Bar and Coffee Bar. You will be amazed by the variety of cuisine which you may have.

Dining in this restaurant may give you a new experience in all five senses. You choose what you want to eat while walking in the marché area and you will be entertained by the food which is cooked right in front of you. You will not be disappointed by the entire process of cooking, the sight and sound, the smell, the taste and texture the food.

Movenpick has been famous for its Rosti, which shredded potatoes are pan-fried with sweet butter and olive oil until golden brown. We ordered a Rosti with black pepper beef sausage, a Seafood Platter, and a Rib-eye Steak.

Last but not least, please leave space for their variety of desserts. You will regret if you come to Movenpick and not tasting their delicious crepes, cheese cake, ice cream, waffles and lots more!!

Very satisfied with our dinner, we walked to a wine shop and got ourselves a Cabernet from Yarra Valley, and headed home. There was a street fair happening, with a concert about to blast, but we walked on, having enough of the crowd and yearning for private time together in a lone condo. (Hehe)

And by the time we gulp down the last glass of wine, the eruption occured...


... and with that, we started Year 2007 with a beautiful and peaceful night, and hope there are more to come for the rest of the year!
