Alexis Bistro & Wine Bar @ The Gardens, Mid Valley City
Alexis Bistro & Wine Bar, a place that has been blogged to death. Beautiful cakes, extensive wine list, jazz performances; there isn’t any reason to hate Alexis though. I just realized that I have not written anything about this uber cool place despite having numerous tea sessions here.
Thanks to MAS, we had a great buka puasa session one week before Hari Raya with the presence of Red Mummy and Iza. Red Mummy is cute and bubbly as usual, in contrast to Iza’s usual quiet self. :p
Besides desserts, some old flavors such as Sarawak Laksa, Mee Siam and Chicken Rice are really good. Same goes to Jon’s hearty Nasi Campur that comes with almost everything.
Roasted Lamb Cutlet with Couscous. As for the cutlets themselves, the meat was juicy and delicious but the cutlets were quite fatty with limited meat. And what happened to the serving size? For RM 68++, we are getting only two small and pathetic looking lamb cutlets.
KampungBoy’s Wagyu Beef Cheek (RM 58++) was fantastic! Slowly braised for long hours, it melted like butter on the tongue with the soft gelatinous layers of fat sliding down.
How could we missed the infamous tiramisu with cognac (RM 15++) ? Coated with a layer of caramelized mixed nuts, it provides a contrasting texture to the soft inner layer of sponge cake infused with coffee liquer. Such a perfect ending to our meal. On a separate note, does SuChan still provide Tiramisu to Alexis? Just curious
