Wishing for a fairy-tale Christmas
DESSERT for dinner? Why not, when a whimsical spread of Snow White-themed cupcakes, sable cookies and popsicle cakes is attractive enough to tempt diners to head directly to the dessert table.

This year, Pullman Kuala Lumpur City Centre Hotel & Residences has gone all out to celebrate Christmas inspired by the 1937 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs animated movie.

Diners at the hotel’s Sedap restaurant can partake in a variety of sweet treats such as Miniature Christmas Cupcakes, Vanilla Chestnut Meringue, Magic Red Apple Mousse Cake (inspired by the iconic poisoned apple) and Spice Poached Pears Pie.

For those seeking indulgence, there is a chocolate fountain adorned with marshmallows shaped like Christmas trees.

From Christmas Eve up to Jan 6, an impressive array of local and international delicacies is lined up.

Start with Lobster Bisque, which has a delicate balance of the ocean’s brininess and the buttery fragrance of cooked shellfish.

The broth is thick with a prominent seafood flavour and bits of corn add texture.

Continuing the seafood theme are main dishes such as Pan-Seared Salmon Fillet with Creamy Green Pepper Sauce and Seafood Cioppino with Saffron Potato.

We found the seafood in both dishes to be fresh, retaining its flavour and texture.

There are also plenty of meat options from chicken, duck, beef and lamb among the festive offerings.

A favourite is Grilled Rack of Lamb, served with Argentinian chimichurri sauce – the meat is tender and generously coated with the tangy, herbaceous sauce.

A surprise hit for me was Stuffed Chicken Roulade as the chicken was tender and still juicy.

The stuffing had also infused into the meat and went well with the jus.

Other dishes to try include Irish Beef Goulash, Slow Braised Beef with sides as well as Duck Leg Confit with cherry, quinoa and orange sauce.

Sedap’s Christmas Eve buffet dinner on Dec 24 from 6.30pm to 10pm is priced at RM238 per adult and RM119 for children between six and 12.

Santa will make an appearance bearing gifts for the little ones.

On Christmas Day, buffet lunch is from 12.30pm to 3pm (RM208 per adult and RM104 per child) and buffet dinner from 6.30pm to 10pm (RM238 per adult and RM119 per child).
