The Feast Village at Starhill Gallery will soon welcome a new establishment to its family of restaurants.
Royale Vietnam is scheduled to open its doors at the end of June 2011 (Exact date to be advised) serving truly authentic Vietnamese cuisine prepared by Vietnamese chefs.
Below: One of the jovial chefs, who is a photography enthusiast as well & was seen taking pictures throughout the preview session!
I enjoyed the dishes that I sampled that day, but I was more bowled -over by the presentation each dish!
This is the mango salad with prawns, in the shape of a caterpillar. So cute isnt it???
Such detailed craving & vivid colours. Totally pleasing to the senses, both eyes & the tongue!
This piq! uant sal ad wasnt as sour as the usual Thai ones & while Im not sure if that was so because it was prepared the Vietnamese way, I preferred this version since Im not a fan of anything sour. The prawns was fresh & the slices of kiwi added a fruity tang to the whole salad.
What is Vietnamese cuisine if the Vietnamese spring rolls wasnt featured? The culinary team prepared their delicate spring rolls on the spot for us.
Im a fan of Vietnamese spring rolls and the version here was faultless.
Here is another amazing dish, both visually & in taste. This peacock inspired dish featured a tail that fans out slices of .
.! . a roll of some kind, wrapped on the outer layer with eggs, while the yellow middle is salted egg yolk. I have never tried these before!
It seems that birds are featured quite a bit here. This bird sports feathers of deep fried meat rolls that was crisp & delicious.
My tasting platter; a bit of the salad & half a spring roll to be eaten together with the Vietnamese dip.
Next I sampled the pho, the Vietnamese noodles soup which base is usually made of beef stock. Basic ingredients for this includes the Vietnamese basil, lime, bean sprouts & parts of the cow which may includes slim cuts of beef (steak, fatty flank, ! lean fla nk or brisket). Variations feature tendon, tripe, meatballs, chicken leg, chicken breast, or other chicken organs.
*Slurps*!!
My bowl of wholesome delicious pho with tender beef slices & bouncy beef balls was absolutely delightful with the aromatic & clear beef broth.
Im certainly looking forward to sampling more Vietnamese cuisine when Royale Vietnam opens. My wish? I hope they serve Vietnamese baguette sandwiches - Banh Mi, as I have yet to try any! Or does anyone know of any Vietnamese outlets in KL that serves those delicious baguette??
