delicious @ straits quay

It was our anniversary and we wanted to try something new.
We've always gone to that ribs place or that friday place or that seafood place.
So when we heard there was a new restaurant in straits quay called "delicious", we just had to try it.
"delicious" has a nice selections of soups, pies, mains ,pastas, appetizers, sandwiches and really cool desserts.
Aiyah, see for yourself laah : http://www.delicious.com.my/#menu
Seriously tough choice for me as there were a lot of things i wanted to order
I finally chose the pan seared salmon and elpea took the marscarpone pesto chicken
Mascarpone Pesto Chicken served with Fried Potatoes & AsparagusRM39.90
Pan-seared Crispy Skin Salmon served with Coriander Relish, Asparagus & Fried Potatoes RM39.90
The drinks came first, of course.
Elpea took the frosty guava+sour plum and i had the frosty lime+lychee.
Both drinks had really unique tastes. seriously unique.
But they were definitely refreshing on a scorching hot day.
Service was pretty fast as the mains came not even 10mins later.
My salmon was well cooked and tender and as the name says, it had a nice crispy skin.
And it was a really big piece of salmon. i loved the coriander relish.
The fried potatoes and asparagus were a nice accompaniment as well. The potatoes were not too oily and the asparagus still had that "crunch".
The mascarpone chicken was quite good as well. The Pesto sauce went well with the chicken but the portion was too huge for elpea.
Dessert was a really hard choice.

And elpea did not want me to pick something that she had already made.
so, i finally picked the banofee pie.
banana + toffee in a pie.
how can you go wrong?
the crust was excellent.
cross section :-)
desserts.....
and more desserts.
The ambiance was very nice and cosy though i don't think i would take the kids there for dinner.
Lunch , maybe.
They also have dining tables outside but during lunchtime, i do not recommend it as it gets pretty hot during noon time.
though i must say it was pretty cold inside the restaurant.
i really like that they have a few dedicated couches for those who are having dessert or tea only.
Going back?
Definitely 100% yes.
