Dinner at Meltz

Yesterday we went to a cafe called Meltz. I found it on Groupon, with an offer of one main dish, one drink, and one cup of ice-cream (two scoops) for RM19 per person.

After we placed our order, we were given a plate of complimentary chocolate. Not sure whether it was because preparing our order would take long. We had seen the display of chocolates when we came in, but there was no price indicated.

From left: raspberry, cappuccino, orange and oreo (I checked after the meal :P )

Pan-fried barramundi fish (normal price RM25.90)

Seabass with an orange and caper dressing (normal price RM24.90)

Salmon with mango and fennel (normal price RM24.90)

Smoked duck breast (normal price RM22.90)

All the dishes came with the same side dishes, which were vegetables and potatoes. The only difference was whether the potatoes were presented separately with a creamy sauce on it, or whether they were used as a base for the vegetables.

The plates for the fish were huge... but the plate used for the duck was smaller for some reason. That is why there is less empty space on the plate :P The presentation of the dishes is really well done, and the service was very nice and courteous, but the food was really slow... The barramundi (siakap) and the seabass came first, and we had to wait quite some time for the salmon. By that time, the first two dishes were more than half-eaten, and by the time the duck arrived, we had been pushing the food around our plates for a while, and one dish had been finished (with the second one unfinished simply because we were trying not to finish it).

So thankfully the taste was able to make up for it! (and probably because we were not too hungry yet) As for the drinks and ice-cream, we had the choice of orange, apple or mango juice (sold at RM5.90 normally) and then blueberry, raspberry, strawberry or vanilla ice-cream (one cup is priced at RM5).
