Iftar @ De Palma Hotel Ampang, Kuala Lumpur

For the past three days (since Thursday), we (my colleagues and I) had been staying at De Palma Hotel, Ampang for a workshop.

The best thing for having the worshop here at De Palma Hotel is their spread of food for iftar (breaking of fast).

Well.. let's have these photos do the talking (err..typing?)

Steak

A steak (from Old Norse steik, "roast") is a slice of meat, typically beef. Most steaks are cut perpendicular to the muscle fibres, improving the perceived tenderness of the meat. In Nort America, steaks are typically served grilled, though they are also often pan-fried. The more tender cuts from the loin and rib are cooked quickly, using dry heat, and served whole. Less tender cuts from the chuck or round are cooked with moist heat or are mechanically tenderized. The more tender steaks have a premium price and perception; the idea of eating steak signifies relative wealth.

Steak with Asparagus n Tomatoes

In the United States and South Africa, a restaurant that specializes in beef steaks is known as a steakhouse. A typical steak dinner consists of a steak, with a starchy side dish, usually baked potatoes, but occasionally another potato dish, rice, pasta, or beans. A small serving of cooked vegetables accompanies the meat and side, with green beans, creamed spinach, asparagus, tomatoes, mushrooms, peas and onion rings being popular.

A well-known accompaniment to steak is shrimp or a cooked lobster tail, a combination often called "surf and turf" or "reef and beef". Special steak knives are provided along with steak.

Steak knives are sharper than most table knives and are usually serrated. Prepared condiments known as steak sauces are generally on the table in steakhouses.

Tenderloin Steak

Filet mignon or Tenderloin Steak — A small, choice cut from the small end of the tenderloin; the most tender and most expensive cut by weight.

Rib Eye Steak

The ribeye can be cut boneless or bone-in; a "bone-in ribeye" (sometimes called a "cowboy ribeye") is synonymous with a rib steak. The cuts are otherwise identical; a justification sometimes used for leaving the bone in is that extra moisture and fat alongside the bone will enhance the flavor, although the inclusion of bone may also be used to inflate the weight of the steak.

Raw Sirloin Meat

Sirloin steak — A steak cut from the hip. Also tends to be less tough, resulting in a higher price tag.

T-bone steak and Porterhouse - A cut from the tenderloin and strip loin, connected with a T-shaped bone (lumbar vertebra). The two are distinguished by the size of the tenderloin in the cut. T-bones have smaller tenderloin sections, while the Porterhouse – though generally smaller in the strip – will have more tenderloin. T-bone and Porterhouse steaks are among the most expensive steaks on a menu because of the large individual portion size.

aren't you salivating over those photos already?? haha...

Put the chocolate in a bowl and place over a pan of boiling water, stir occasionally as the chocolate melts. Wash the strawberries but leave the stalks on for decoration and something to hold. Wash clean then dry the strawberries with a paper towel.Dip the strawberries in the melted and still warm chocolate and then place on grease proof kitchen baking paper. Leave the chocolate dipped strawberries to set, if the weather is warm place in the fridge for 15 minutes.

Turkish Delight

A little souvenir from Istanbul....

Miss N_n_ said: It tastes like a potpourri (re:huhh?? she ate potpourri before?? huhu)

What is Turkish Delight?

Turkish Delight, lokum, or loukoum is a confection made from starch and sugar. It is often flavored with rosewater and lemon, the former giving it a characteristic pale pink color. It has a soft, jelly-like and sometimes sticky consistency, and is often packaged and eaten in small cubes that are dusted with icing sugar or copra to prevent sticking. Some types contain small nut pieces, usually pistachio, hazelnut or walnuts. Other common types include flavors such as cinnamon or mint. In the production process soapwort may be used as an additive, serving as an emulsifier
