Birthday dinner was at The Elephant, Section 17.
We actually started our meal with the cakes and had to stop half way when our food was served!

For food, we ordered the specialties of course, and the Salt Baked Fish, RM36, was the restaurant’s signatory dish and came highly recommended if my food blogs search was of any indication.
The sea bass was baked encased in a layer of snowy white coarse salt and in foil.To eat, scrap off the salt and skin the fish.
Enjoy then wonderfully moist and succulent flesh underneath infused with the flavours of galangal and lemongrass stuffed into the belly cavity. The accompanying sauce makes this even better!

Brown Rice.
Higher in fibre, minerals and what-nots.. Supposedly healthier, & it does makes a nice change from having white rice. Great to eat with the curries and vegetables dishes they have here.

Instead of the usual Tom Yam, we got ourselves Tom Som.
The clear galangal, lemongrass and lime soup came loaded with fish, prawns, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, coriander and slices of starfruit!
While the starfruit was an interesting addition, I don’t see how it makes any difference to the taste of the soup. Well, at least it made the main topic of conversation for the next 10mins after it was served.

otr dishes

The fried chicken with basil was reallyyy good. Tender strips of breast meat, mild spiced & delicious.
We had some vegetables to round off the meal, and the stir- fried kai lan did the trick.

While the meal was good, it was the cakes that, well….takes the cake.
Favourites are the Death by Chocolate & the Key Lime Pie. Of course, the Rum ball, Red Velvet, Choc Cheese and the Durian Choc was just heavenly too ;)

wah, real sugar overload! :d i'm hoping to check out a slice of heaven next week, but they only do takeaway and don't have any tables for customers to nibble on their purchases there, right?
salt-baked fish looks great, i've never had that at my elephant! do you have to order that dish in advance? my dinners are often last-minute decisions, so i rarely get the chance to pre-order…

I can so hear the Salt Baked Fish calling my name! It looks superb! And Rum Ball at Slice of Heaven? Timeless classic! I remember how it contributed to my pudgy childhood – I used to eat five in one sitting!
