JOM MAKAN BUKA PUASA BUFFET AT GRAND MILLENNIUM KL


A delectable Xinjiang Roasted Whole Lamb along with fluffy spiced nang (the Chinese Muslim version of naan) emerged as the most compelling drawcard at The Mill, Grand Millennium Kuala Lumpur for buka puasa this year.

Marinated with cumin, Szechuan peppercorn and chilli, the lamb speciality is a favourite with the Muslim community in Xinjiang, China. Once you taste the tender meat imbued with aromatic spices, you’d be asking for repeat helpings.
Executive Chef Rudy Junaidie and his team will prepare a combination of street food-style eats and traditional delights for The Mill’s Jom Makan buka puasa buffet throughout Ramadan.
Keep your eyes peeled for the Belanga Bakar section where claypot specialities are rustled up by the chefs on duty. With nine types of Belanga Bakar choices available, guests can select their choice of protein and have the ingredients cooked Malay, Chinese or Indian-style.

We recommend the Fish Asam Pedas with eggplant, okra and tomatoes. The tantalising spicy-tangy gravy coupled with the fresh fish went like a dream with plain rice. Other options on request include curry masala and kung pao.

In addition to the requisite Kerabu and Ulam selection, take the opportunity to relish traditional Malay delicacies such as Rendang Tok, Ayam Masak Madu, Telor Itik Masak Lemak dengan Belimbing Buluh, and Kambing Masak Hitam.

Each of the timeless dishes proved on-point and begged to be eaten with plain rice. The tart sourness of the little belimbing buluh (bamboo starfruit) lent nice acidity to the turmeric-flavoured duck egg curry; a must-try dish to whet the appetite.
Fans of Shawarma will be pleased to know the popular Middle-Eastern street food snack is served piping hot. The essential condiments are laid out for you to customise it to your liking.


Another eye-catching highlight to enhance the buffet dining experience is Jajan Pasar – the culinary team’s interpretation of an al fresco Asian market where women vendors sell snacks and sweets on raised platforms.

The international cornucopia also straddles tempting Japanese, Italian and Indian specialities; from appetisers and mains that leave diners spoiled for choice.

Top draws from this section proffered Malaysian desserts: Pulut Panggang, Steamed Ubi Kayu (tapioca) with Coconut and Sambal, Bubur Serawa Nangka (sweet jackfruit in coconut milk dessert broth), Bubur Pulut Hitam (black glutinous rice dessert broth) and Red Bean Soup with Glutinous Rice Balls.
Perennial Malay Kuih ranging from Pandan Layer Cake, Kuih Koci, Kuih Bingka Ubi and Kuih Talam among others also jostle for attention at the expansive dessert line-up.
 
The Mill’s Jom Makan Buffet (7pm to 10pm) will be available from 12 March to 9 April 2024 at RM168++ per adult and RM84++ per child (5 to 12 years old). 

Early-bird Offer: Purchase 10 vouchers at RM1,350++ (RM135++ per adult) from 4 February to 9 March 2024. Free parking (first 3 hours) applicable for dine-in guests.

CITARASA NIPAH AT EQ KUALA LUMPUR FOR BUKA PUASA

This year when you 
buka puasa (break fast) at EQ Kuala Lumpur during Ramadan, be sure to sample Nasi Beriani Kambing Batu Pahat at Nipah Restaurant.


The deliciously flavourful show-stealing dish, prepared by Malay Chef Muhammad Hajral Lisarni, is one of the many signature specialities at the Citarasa Nipah promotion come the Ramadan month.

Mr. Gerard Walker, General Manager of EQ Kuala Lumpur, believes Citarasa Nipah fulfils diners’ desire for simpler, nostalgic times. "People's priorities change over time, but they'll always appreciate a good outing and an opportunity to catch up with friends.”

Staying true to the traditional methods of Malay food preparation, Chef Hajral and his team aim to revive fond memories of passionate slow-cooking and the familial and communal pleasure of meal-sharing at Nipah.


Choice picks from the extensive menu include Gulai Lemak Cili Padi Daging Salai (the beef is smoked in-house before it’s cooked with a robust yellow curry); Sambal Tumis Udang Harimau (tiger prawns in zingy, fiery-hot sambal); Tulang Rawan Gulai Kawah; Gulai Nangka Muda (young jackfruit curry); Kari Kambing (mutton curry) and assorted Kerabu (local salads) by Chef de Partie Saadiah.

Crowd-pleasers such as Kambing Golek (whole roast lamb), EQ's emblematic Satay, Rendang with Ketupat and Lemang, Rojak Buah and the ubiquitous Seafood Bar proffering freshly shucked oysters in addition to blanched mussels, tiger prawns, and baby scallops on ice are part of the splendid feast.



Tradition meets modernity come dessert time with classic treats of Lompat Tikam, Dodol, Pengat Nangka, Sago and Som Som Gula Melaka beckon invitingly alongside inventive, contemporary temptations: Strawberry Mousse Entremets, Pistachio Dates, Chocolate Mousse Banana Cake, Coconut Lime Mousse Cake, Kek Batik Coklat and Layered Cake.
