The Steakhouse @ Changkat Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur

Just recently, we were invited to The Steakhouse situated at the busy Changkat Bukit Bintang. For a brief introduction, the restaurant is owned by Chef Werner Kuhn whose F&B establishments include Dine In The Dark, El Cerdo, The Whisky Bar (right beside). All restaurants are situated on the same streets, serving various cuisines unique to their own to cater to all the different taste buds out there.

This round however, we are going to talk about The Steakhouse and the premium foods they offer.

Together with the calm, relaxing, peaceful and charming atmosphere, the restaurant is definitely great for people who are looking for good meals while enjoying the calm and peacefulness. And also for couples who are looking some private and romantic meals together.

For starters, we started off with their Caesar Salad as recommended. Don't ever look down at this common salad dish, it is actually one of the best salads that we have ever tasted. My partner and I both agreed that it is one of the best salads, based on experience since we are both Caesar Salad lovers and would definitely order this dish whenever there is one in the menu.

Of course, the ingredients were fresh. However, it was the Smoked Duck Breast that left this dish totally and awesomely memorable! It was smoked handsomely enough without destroying the flavours.

If you are visiting The Steakhouse, don't forget to order this!

Next up! We have the Wild Mushroom Soup. I love the chunky mushrooms inside, it adds a bit of texture to the soup. However, I find the soup a bit watery as compared to other premium mushroom soups I have had. Don't get me wrong, the taste is definitely up to par, just that I prefer thicker soups and together with garlic bread, that would be the best!

This is definitely something new! These paper-thin beef ham can be eaten just like that or you could eat them together with the Rock Melon. All you need to do is wrap a piece of the beef ham around one small piece of the melon and swallow them whole! Hah!

It may sound like an eccentric way of eating. Trust me, it is really interesting! One moment you taste something salty and the next is sweetness from the rock melon. And it doesn't feel weird at all, the combination is just right and as a person who does not take beef a lot, I actually enjoyed this dish a lot.

Yeah! This is how I ate them. It's good!

You have never visited The Steakhouse unless you order their steak... Well, that goes without saying! This is the main highlight! We could literally smell the aromatic steak from the kitchen as they prepare it all the way until they serve on our table. It comes together with one potato side dish (French Fries, Mashed Potatoes, Sauteed Potatoes) and a sauce of your choice.

For testing purposes, we picked two sauces instead - Red Wine & Black Pepper. The red wine sauce is a killer, it totally elevate the taste of the steak to another level. I literally went "WOO" and "WOW" on every bites. I loved the black pepper sauce too for its spicy heat. It gave a different peppery flavour to the already fragrant steak. Honestly, I couldn't pick which sauce was the best. Each of its own, I guess self preferences may come into play in this matter.

Served with Parsley, potato, mushroom and creamy wasabi pesto sauce, this Cod Fish was unforgettable. Initially, when I first saw the menu, I was turned off by the Pesto Sauce as I had bad experience of this sauce before. It is not one that most asians are accustomed to you, and I did not know how to appreciate it before. Since the waiter recommended it, I decided to give a go.

And boy, I never regret making that decision! Not only the fish was fresh, it was the taste and flavours of the pesto sauce that distinguished itself from the horrible one I had.

I love these two Sangrias. If you are looking for something refreshing after your meal, opt for the White Wine Pear. If you prefer something sweet, the Rose Raspberry is good. However, if you are driving, you better avoid these two.

What's a good meal without desserts to end the day?

Well, don't be fooled by this photo, just because the Werner's special is placed at the back doesn't mean it's not as good.

If you love Chocolates and Wine, Andrea's Special is definitely your thing. Personally, I love the Werner's Special for its fruity, refreshing and berry-licious flavours. Yeap! I love berries! And I definitely enjoyed my dessert as well KL Teo enjoying her Andrea's Special rich with chocolates and wine.

Thank you The Steakhouse for the amazing food and fabulous hospitality. I love the selections of food so even if someone in the party might not prefer steaks, they could opt for many other wonderful items they have in their premium selections. I highly recommend this restaurant for those who are looking for good food with a romantic atmosphere - good for lovey-dovey anniversary celebrations.
