2nd Anniversary Celebration @ Fuego, Troika.

So, I wasn't supposed to know where we were going for our 2nd anniversary dinner and was only given a choice between:- 

1. good food
2. romantic ambience / great scenery

As a food lover, I choose the first one of course! So off we went for a dinner and arrived slightly earlier before 6pm. To my surprise, the restaurant that he intended bringing me to was Sky Dining @ Troika in KL (my first time there after hearing about that place for quite some time!).

FYI, there were four different eatery areas within the same floor namely Claret, Strato, Fuego and Cantaloupe.

As it was quite early and the table at Fuego wasn't ready, we were guided to a comfortable area with sofa at Claret and greeted by a friendly waiter there. The boyfriend ordered a Dry Martini and minutes after ordering, the other waiter told us that the table is ready. -_-Well, good thing was that the drink from Claret can be served at our table at Fuego.

Our drinks (L-R): Dry Martini (RM 40) Infused Water with Cucumber and Thyme (RM 8 per bottle).

Ordered a few types of dishes and the first one was finally served after... less than 10 minutes. :D

Salmon Roe Guacamole served with crispy tapioca, lotus roots and yam (RM 25). 

Followed by Smoked Snails in the Jar served with garlic crisps (RM 30).

The first two dishes were really impressive and had higher expectations after for the main course. The food didn't serve immediately though as I believe they took ample time to serve us the next awesome dish. 

While waiting, chatted away and took a few shots before the night falls.

Before the city lights brighten the area.

My date for the night... and every other day and night. :p

At about 7ish, voilà, main course is served! 

Rare French Beef Flank (approx. 500 gm) served with Yuzu & Black Pepper Sauce (RM 125).

Pressed Potato topped with Black Olive  (RM 20).

The main dishes definitely met our expectations, especially the meat which was so juicy! In fact, I ate it without the sauce most of the time as it was really well-marinated. *slurps*

Wanted to try their desserts as well but was too full at that point of time, hence, took our time to digest what we've eaten and enjoyed the view for a while more.

City Lights of KL at 8ish.

With such great scenery, of course must have us inside right!

Ordered one dessert to share and thank goodness we didn't ordered another as it was huge. After some contemplation, we chose the Berries Pavlova. 

Berries Pavlova with berries (duh!) and Flambé Brandy (RM 35). 

I reserved my thoughts on Pavlova as the one I first had in Alexis was quite a let down, since I never fancied anything with lots of cream. However, this Pavlova was totally different from Alexis' as the texture itself was really unique. It was crunchy on the outside and cold on the inside with some kinda cream that tasted very much like yogurt. Complemented by a hint of sourness from the berries, this was definitely one of the most awesome desserts I've ever had!

It was really a great night out with him at such an awesome place with great atmosphere to match the event. I had the best of both worlds - awesome food and ambience, and most of all, with the boyfriend!

I can't thank you enough for what you've done for us, but I promise you that I will do just as much to keep moving forward towards the same future. Thank you darl. <3
