His birthday dinner: Duviet

This is an old event tapi sebab I didn’t managed to come out with an entry due to the site’s problem, aku postklah hari ni.

He decided to have his birthday dinner at Duviet, a Vietnamese restaurant located in Damansara Uptown. Tu pon setelah aku peras ugut dan tanya banyak kali sampai dia nyampah, kalau tak dia nak makan ikan masin je dekat rumah [ok part ikan masin tu aku memandai tambah hehe]

Duviet has few branches  – Bangsar Village and KLCC, ni yang aku ingatla, maybe ade dekat tempat lain that I am not aware of.

The Uptown branch is located sederet dengan HSBC and 100 Yen and is located on the first floor.

The reason he chose this place was because

a) Jalan tak jem masa tu
b) Peaceful atmosphere
c) Tak pack during the evening
d) The food was not bad

We pushed off after berbuka -berbuka minum air jela and by the time we reached there the place was next to empty. This was not the first time we ate here during Ramadhan, the first time pon sama, memang tak ramai orang which I likeee

We were actually having dinner with his sister and her friends, since we came early, kami adalah ber camwhore dan membaca magazine yang diprovide by the resturant.

Oh ya the food. Before I go on, you have to excuse me sebab maybe the name of the dishes tidak tepat. I forget their names sebab dah agak lama and their website is down at the moment.

Sebab adik dia tatau bila nak sampai we proceed with ordering the food.

Now, the first time we went here we had this rice cake for starters. Sangatlah sedap dan pedas tapi hari tu tak ada, so we ordered something else dan order dua pulak tu hehe.

Penamakkk

They have many types of spring rolls but we ordered this one. Not too badlah but it was not orgasmic either. I still prefer the rice cake

The fried fish cake was so-so only, nothing special in fact a bit masin. Plus aku bukannya suka sangat rice cake tapi apsal order pon tak tau. Hehe gatal

We decided to share a pot of tea for drinks. Since they don’t have Chinese tea, we went for Vietnamese Lotus Leaves Tea

For me, they taste a bit weird even the sister felt the same tapi habis jugakla kan. Sampai aku terpaksa order air lain

I think that’s the name of the drink, aku tak ingatla pulak but it was sour plum with soda water. Surprisingly adalah setap slurpp slurrp. Very refreshing okies.

Ok as for main course, we ordered nasik. Nak nasikkkkkkkkkkkkkkk jugakk hehe and varieties of lauk.

The main reason we wanted to eat here the first time was because they served duck.

We love it. The duck was tender and I love chewing the nuts, aku rasa diorang pakai walnut kot. Initially I thought eeuw itik dengan kacang? Huh tapi setap okies.

He ordered another meat, Stewed Beef

I didn’t sample any sebab adalah sangat focus kepada si itik , nak nak lagi bila aku nampak carrot tu kan eeeeeek but he and his sister said it was lovely.

And then we have something yang quite pelik bagi aku

I have never eaten such dish, udang dengan asam but oh my, it was really setapppp. Rupa je keji yet it was lovely.

The prawns were not over cooked and they bled well with the thick sauce. Oh no tetibe air liur aku meleleh.Hoh!

And finally we ordered some fish

This was another lovely dish. Ikan itu dalah sangat lembut and you can taste a little hint of lemongrass, not too strong though. You don’t even have to dip it itno the sauce, it’s nice to be eaten on it’s own.

So yeah it was lovely.

Overall, paid less than RM120 for 4 person dimana kesemuanya rasa macam nak terbaring sebab kenyang sangat. Tu pon nasib baik aku tak jadi order dessert.

Kalau tak, kene seretla bila nak balik.

I would definitely come again, not only because of the food but also because of the friendly staff.
