Tea Time @ Melur & Thyme, Suria KLCC

beautiful latte

It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon and somehow, I missed my lunch. Searching for a decent meal I found enticing my companion Id to one of my latest makan place in KLCC, Melur & Thyme Restaurant on the Ground floor facing the park. I accidentally stumbled upon in on a Christmas day last year, having afternoon at the Harolds cafe. 

Melur & Thme served a mixture of local and western delights, both finger foods and full ala carte cuisine. Their coffee latte is one of the best and I never failed to order them on every occasion. Melur & Thyme's latte had the distinctive taste and aroma that word failed me right now, and of course, I also like their artistic foam drawings. And what a great way to nibble their spring rolls- fried popiah stuffed with cuttlefish and mixed vegetables served with thick sweet chilli sauce. A good starter for me while waiting for my dish in a day that I called a carbo celebration day! The mixed veggies were fresh and crunchy and the popiah skin were crispy.

I've frequented Melur & Thyme a few times, and on all occasion I was supposedly on a 'no carbs diet', thus the only option were some kind of proteins dishes (that I will post in the near future). Hence, on this fateful Saturday afternoon around 3pm, I ordered my dream plater, Nasi Goreng Bunga Kantan with Crispy Chicken. Basically, stirred fried rice with flower torch, long beans and lemon grass served with eggs, lots of crackers and their so called special ayan kampung (spring chicken) with of course sambal on the side!

RM24.00 Fried Rice

We also ordered Penang Char Koay Teow, stir fried koay teow (flat rice noodles) with cockles, chives, beans sprouts and tiger prawns with cut chillies in soy sauce on the side. I am not really a Char Koay Teow fan, so, I reckon the Char Koay Teow is so so. The taste is there with generous add ons. We finished it to the last bit, and it must be good.

The ambience is fantastic, the serving is fast and friendly and the waiters were very attentive not withstanding that we were seating at the outer side of the restaurant. The food itself were fantastic, wholesome, tasty and no cutting corners in term of ingredients. A plate of Fried Rice at RM24.00 it was a bomb, but this is Suria KLCC restaurant outlet where the rental is a bomb too, I say, it is value for money and a unique dining experience where we can mix, match or contrast our dining choices. Acepaizah's overall rating is 9 for this rather expensive dining extravaganza!
