English Style Dining ~ The Smokehouse

When you did a good favor to someone else....actually we never expect for any return...because we are lending our hand sincerely. But if that person appreciated your help very very very very much....then that will be a BIG BIG MEAL~!

Hubby been offering help to my brother last few weeks ago when he needed us the most....and since then he now gratefully acknowledged hubby's assistance by treat us a dinner.

Venue.....i'm deciding...$$$...he is paying...keke~!

To avoid rushing times to any far places....so the food hunting tonight will be at Bangsar.....the center-point of our working place.

There were so many shops there..but i've chosen this ~ The Smokehouse.

Cozy ambient...feels like dining at home

smells of vintage with the dim dim light

the specialty from the smokehouse ~ Beef Wellington @ RM48

Beef wellington is a preparations of tenderloin coated with pâté and duxelles which is then wrapped in puff pastry and baked.

* pâté is a mixture of ground meat and fat minced into a spreadable paste

* duxelles is a finely chopped (minced) mixture of mushroom or mushroom stems, onions, shallots and herbs sauteed in butter and reduced to paste.

The difficulty of this dish is...when send the pastry to bake....the chef gotta take control on the timing and heat. So when the outlayer is baked and yet the inlayer tenderloin were also cooked according to the customers desired doneness of meat. Credits given to the chef....my brother were so satisfied with his order~! Another 5***** given out today!

*****

This is a truly satisfied meal we had~! A nice restaurant with lots of special dish for the day...i had no regrets for additional inches to my belly.

A little intro to the Smokehouse....this traditional country house hospitality were actually the same restaurant at Cameron Highlands & Fraser Hill. But with additional range of dishes on the menu. Others than traditional english food...they did served thai food too. So that the customers may have their options in food selection.

This round our orders were on english food...if i happen to come back again for another round, i will try on their thai food too~!

Total damage: RM300 (3 persons)
