Dinner yg Vogue @ Renaissance Hotel

I went there with Nor quite some time ago. Last year to be exact, on 27th Oct 2011. It was an adhoc plan. Well for me at least coz initial plan was between Nor and my other office's collegue Zaharah. They planned to dine at Renai (after getting the 50% discount group-on coupon) however after the booking confirmed and everything, Zaharah got other's problem that made her unable to go. Desperate I guess, Nor asked me to swap Zaharah place and luckily I was in the mood to join. Imagine last minute information and kena keluar duit jgk around RM49 for the buffet... that's why I said nasib baik I was in the good mood. Kalau x mmg malas nak pegi, especially when we needed to be there after work around 8pm. Dah la baju gi keje aritu x cantik.

I insisted to go home first after work to change my attire. At least xde la nampak bacin sgt makan kat hotel. Nor called the restaurant and postponed to 9pm. She picked me at my house around 8pm then merempit kami ke KL. Alhamdullilah traffic was smooth that night.

Arrived at the restaurant and took our seat. View of the dining room...



The waiter came and asked for the drinks... Imagine air yg available only plain water. Nak taknak kena la order juice mango. Kang nampak sgt budget. And you know what, this one glass of juice cost around RM10++ ok!



Me at the salad section... There was one big space for salad while the main course and dessert sharing the same space. Got what I mean x? Maknanya salad lebih variety dr main course. That's a trick ok. To make foods look variety even it just more vege than meat!



See, a lot of choices for salad. Right top bakery area, bottom waffles (yummy!!) and of course the main dishes..

Fruits and chocolates. There were White, Dark and Green type chocolates here...

Full with the main course, lets take a look at the desserts...

In term of chocolate, I cannot tolerate. I'm a "chocolista". (Is it a word??)... Bantai je la janji yg penting I'm crazy about chocolate. Rasa mcm nak bwk balik chocolate fountain nie kat umah. Just dip anything u want here. Slurrppp...




It's really a temptation.



Wolla, ice cream...




Owh, the name of our cafe is Vogue Patisserie Cafe. So make sure U dress "vouge"ly if U wish to dine here ok... Actually for me style is not a matter, the most import thing is your "pocket"... :P



Overall the buffet was ok. However the price (original price before discount RM98) was a bit expansive for me as others hotel like Marriot and Mandarin Hotel KLCC (just name a few with similar price), the foods were much variety than here. Kat sini lamb grill pun xde. I rated 3 out of 5.

Nevertheless, perut sudah kenyang.... our next xtvt before went home berposingla gamaknya.



Nak buat red carpet entrance la tu kononnya.. Berangan DIVA itu penting!



The lobby lounge



There was one lady that time who was very sporting and volunteered to take our photo.



To the East wing lobby.... means our cafe td located at the West wing la kot. I already forgot... :P



Another cafe at the East wing



Temptations cafe... This one looks oriental. Probably more Chinese food here.




The main lobby... berapa banyak lobby da..!

Outside the hotel



Since we parked our car next to the hotel, we took outdoor photo odw our walk there..



Dunno, nampak buruk lak Renaissance time nie.. Angle x cantik kot



Walla, KLCC at night.



I love this photo so much. Susah nak dpt shoot nie tau. KLCC background, with a barrier such as the very limited light plus the non-stop passing peoples... Result was satisfactory!




Menara Kuala Lumpur also visible from here




KL is really a city of lights and this is the proove!!



While Nor was driving, I took this photo of KLCC tower and very impressed with the result.




KLCC looks so majestic and amazing at night. Subhanallah really proud with KLCC and proud to be Malaysian. Cayalah...!!!



Finally I reached home at midnight. Tomorrow got to work so went straight to bed after changed cloth. Alhamdullilah, one more experience added to my memory. Syukur with His consent that I am able to experience something new, face new challenge, taste good foods, work in happy environment and breath everyday to enjoy all this. However remember everything we owned is only temporary so no need to be greedy or proud. He's the one who gave us and He's the one who can take it back. Subhanallah walhamdullilah wallailaha illallah wallahuakbar!
