Indulge in indulgent food at Indulgence Ipoh

Recognised as a pioneer amongst fine dining restaurants in Ipoh, Indulgence Restaurant and Living offers the best in world cuisine ranging from European Continental to Asian and local. While you are enjoying your fine food in an exquisitely decorated interior, the impeccable service of the well-trained staff makes your entire dining experience a truly pleasant and enjoyable one. 


Indulgence Restaurant & Living



Appetiser:
Soft bread served with butter
The complimentary fresh bread with a crispy crust was very warm and soft in the inside.


Appetiser:
Kumamoto Oyster from US @ RM23.80 for 2 pieces
The plump oyster which was very juicy and succulent, possessed a creamy texture and a natural sweetest of shellfish. The addition of tabasco sauce and lemon juice further enhanced the flavour of the oyster, giving a very long-lasting aftertaste which lingers around your mouth.



I must admit that this is the best oyster I've ever had... 


Main Course:
Fat Momma @ RM32.00
This poultry dish is served with 2 skewers of mango and sweet potato


Extra small-sized chicken marinated with concentrated tomato puree and baked in the oven.


Dessert:
Creme Brulee @ RM12.00
Sugar was sprinkled onto the custard and caramelised with a butane torch


Smooth and creamy custard topped with a contrasting layer of hard caramel


Drinks:
Double Espresso @ RM12.00
The espresso was made using one of the world's finest ground coffee - Bristot. 
Too bad it was served wrongly in a coffee cup instead of the standard espresso cup. This had somehow affected the layer of crema formed thus causing a greater deviation in the taste of coffee. 
With a service charge and government tax of 5% and 6% respectively, the total bill came up to RM88.60. Worth spending an astronomical price on all the above? My answer is definitely YES!

Fine dining @ Citrus Wine & Dine

I am always looking forward to eating fine food in Ipoh. Fine Dining, as the name suggests, offers diners three main areas of focus: a well-written menu without any picture of food, patrons being treated like kings and queens by waiters in suits and the most elegant dining atmosphere in a high-priced restaurant. To date, none of the restaurants in Ipoh fulfils the above criteria, including today's featured restaurant - Citrus Wine & Dine. However, I would very much like to compliment their food which I think is far more worth eating and paying for than the Perak Sultan's favourite eating place (Ind.......)

Back to the question, can we classify Citrus Wine & Dine as a fine dining restaurant? When I think of fine dining, the images of crisp tablecloths, live classical music in the background and a full course meals served according to sequence come to mind. Perhaps, today's fine dining concept has evolved a little resulting from the fusion of cuisines of various genre. Well, owing to the eclectic blend of food Citrus serves and the limited choice we have in Ipoh, I think it is not a bad idea to call it a fine dining restaurant.
