Be moonstruck by Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara’s Maison of Mid-Autumn Elegance collection, featuring French elegance infused into local heritage; a concept inspired by meaningful reunion connections and the timeless art of gifting.

Local media members had opportunity to a sneak preview of the two beautifully crafted gift boxes: Golden Reverie and Autumn Harmony for the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival.

Golden Reverie can be transformed into a luxurious keepsake box while Autumn Harmony presents a timeless expression of warmth. Complete with a nifty cocktail fork and knife set, the gift sets can be personalised with one’s choice of individual mooncakes.

Purists will like the Traditional Baked Mooncakes with fillings of Red Bean Paste, Pure White Lotus Paste, White Lotus Paste with Single Egg Yolk or Pandan Lotus Paste with Single Yolk.

Contemporary preferences are catered for with the Artisan Snow Skin Collection. Signature flavours include Mango Cream Cheese, Matcha with Red Bean, Pandan Custard, and Black Sesame with Cheese.

Durian enthusiasts will find ample succour in the rich and velvety Musang King Durian Snow Skin Mooncake. Inventive variants such as Pumpkin Lotus Paste with Mung Bean Paste, Black Sesame Lotus Paste with Mochi, Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt and Assorted Mixed Nuts complete the sweet line-up.

Also available to enhance your mooncake enjoyment are two mocktail concoctions: Midnight Moon (pu erh tea, chrysanthemum, sour plum & rock sugar) and Golden Moon (osmanthus oolong tea, lychee, ginger honey syrup, calamansi and soda water). 

The latter is best paired with mooncakes filled with Red Bean, Mango Cream Cheese, Pandan Custard and Pure White Lotus while the latter goes well with White Lotus Single Yolk, Pandan Single Yolk, Black Sesame with Cheese and Musang King Durian.

Savour a six-course Cantonese feast beginning with signature Wan Chun Ting Dim Sum Trio: Chicken Meatball & Prawn Paste with Conpoy Sauce, Shrimp Wonton with Szechuan Sauce and Stuffed Scallop with Prawn Paste in Salt & Pepper to whet the appetite.

The deeply soulful Double-Boiled Chicken Soup with Dried Scallop, Dendrobium Orchid and Cordyceps Flower is a compelling heartwarmer whilst the silky-smooth Steamed Tiger Grouper with Chef's Special Sauce will inevitably make a notable splash.

 
Delicate vegetal and oceanic nuances from Braised Dried Scallops with Baby Chinese Cabbage continue the palate-pleasing pace before irresistible Braised Longevity Noodles with Shredded Chicken sums up the main cast.

JOYEUX ELEGANTE FESTIVE FEASTS AT LE MERIDIEN PUTRAJAYA

Embrace the magic of Le Méridien Putrajaya’s Joyeux Élégante highlights this festive season. An impressive celebration of flavours, textures, and holiday indulgence by the Hotel’s culinary team aims to entice diners to savour every moment.

The extravagant spread is curated for every food lover; from ardent seafood enthusiasts and meat lovers to local fare fans and dessert die-hards.

Seafood starters steal the spotlight from the get-go. Heed the siren’s song of show-stopping selection proffering fresh oysters, snow crab legs, prawns, crayfish, scallops and mussels heaped on glistening ice and begging to be enjoyed.

We unashamedly tout going for slipper lobsters, snow crab legs, and fresh oysters. Their clean, natural and pristine ocean-fresh flavours will reel you back repeatedly.

Over at the salad and appetiser section, sample rosettes of salmon gravlax accompanied by fresh micro greens and condiments. Enjoy the mildly briny salmon’s supple succulence before diving for richer offerings. In addition, a wide array of sashimi, Japanese maki rolls and nigiri sushi beckon invitingly in various guises and rainbow of colours.

 
No year-end celebration is complete without platters of prime roasts and carvery. Choice picks to wolf down include baked Wellington lamb encased in airy-light, golden puff pastry, tender and perfectly seasoned roast Angus prime rib, classic roast local turkey with spices and delicious baked almond pistachio crusted salmon.

Soul-satisfying baked oysters and scallops topped with splendidly creamy-rich crust prove their appetite-whetting worthiness whilst fork-tender and heartwarming beef cheek goulash promises untold hearty comfort in every bite. Our favourite stand-out is that delectably sweet-savoury duck breast with apple compote.

Rustic temptations of tomato and mushroom bruschetta, prawns and chicken terrine, slices of smoked duck and chicken as well as beef pastrami stand cheek-by-jowl alongside an international cheese board and a myriad of fresh greens, chick peas, legumes and salad condiments.

Diners can practically traverse the world on a plate with the assortment of tempura, nourishing clam and corn chowder, oven-fresh pizza, roast golden duck and Chinese-style kam heong prawns, lamb varuval and chicken shawarma among others laid out at different nooks and sections.

For the ultimate sweet finale, succumb to colourful and decadent treats of chocolate cherry yule log cake, spiced banana cake, gingerbread men cookies, fruity jellies, macarons, chocolate mousse, pralines, mince pies, ice cream and skewers of fresh fruits to be dipped into melted chocolate.
