Shanghai Dynasty

Taste: ★★★
Price:   ★★
Service: ★★★

I went to Shanghai Dynasty with my family to celebrate my birthday! Rumor has it, the owners spend $3-4mil on the interior decorations and furniture! Being born in Asia, I've been to many restaurants like this before so this was nothing special, but it did look like King Midas came to rampage!
This was one of my favourite pieces of furniture in the entrance. There were other things like massive clocks, couches, mirrors what not. But this reminded me of Cinderella's pumpkin carriage so I like it very much!

Versace inspired cutlery (I'm no expert in brands so I don't know if it's real or not)

 

 I ordered my favourite drink of all time! Lemon lime and bitters.

 Our entree consisted of a vegetarian abalone. I'm guessing this was made out of soy products. The presentation was wonderful but I have to say, I found it hard to enjoy this dish. On the first bite...I don't even know how to describe it. It just tasted fake? Ironic I know, since it IS fake. But it just tasted like mild plastic? I was only able to enjoy it when I dipped it in the wasabi and soy sauce, probably because it concealed the plasticky taste.

This was by far the best dish of the night. The prawns were large and cooked just right. Those beans are a personal favourite which adds to my biasness (is that even a word?)

Sorry I realise I'm lacking all the names to these dishes, but they were all written in Chinese on the menu and I wasn't the one who ordered so please forgive me! This dish wasn't half bad. I had tasted better versions at other restaurants though.

Salted Duck I believe? The skin was nice and crisp and it went well with the rice, so no complains for this one!

So we had been told if you come to this restaurant you have to visit the toilet. So visit the toilet we did. When we entered it was quite nice, but not as pretty as people have said. The door handles were quite unique so I took a picture of that.

And it was my birthday after all so last but not least the cake! (Greentea mousse from Breadtop I believe)

 

And lastly red bean soup which i really loved! Normally they are either too sweet or too bland and taste like water. But this one was just right!

Red bean soup - complimentary dessert from the restaurant.

Melba Brasserie

Taste: ★★★★☆
Price:   ★★★
Service: ★★★★☆

Night view of Flinders Station

A few weekends ago, I went o Melba Brasserie with my cousin to celebrate my mum's birthday. Melba Brasserie is at the top of the grand staircase in the lobby of the Langham Hotel. I think the highlight of this buffet is that you can create your own entree and Asian stir fries, Indian dishes, Italian pastas, whilst it is made right in front of you. Melba also offers a beautiful panoramic view across the Yarra River to the city skyline.

Table setup

For starters near there is a Japanese corner which offers different types of sashimi and sushi.

Japanese station where you can make your own dish from choices of sashimi, sushi, caviar, seaweed, etc.

As I mentioned earlier on, you can create your own dishes depending on what you like, so I asked for a small serving of pasta. The chef responsible whipped it up on the spot and I was asked what I wanted to add and how much. My mum also ordered an asian stirfry but I didn't get a picture of that because when I got back to the table she was already digging in so I didn't want to stop her. But mind you, it was one of the best I've ever tasted. I'm personally not a big fan of stirfrys but I would definitely have that one again!

Japanese Wagyu steak

I was quite full by the second round of food so I started moving on to dessert. This is an Indian bread, I didn't get to ask for the name of it, but it was very nice! You could also customise these. I asked for the M&Ns to be put in it, but there were savory choices as well, such as cheese, meat, etc. It reminded me of a cookie actually. This was also made when ordered. The chef rolled out a piece of dough and added the M&Ns then rolled it out to a thin circle and stuck it in a pot which was inside the kitchen table. I was quite amazed because I had never had this before but I definitely recommend this!

Moving on to the dessert corner! It is amazing... The small treats range from chocolate mouses to lemon tarts and of course the ice creams and massive fondue machine (which I didn't get a photo of because there was a big crowd around it so I didn't want to barge in for a picture). If I went here again I would definitely try more of their desserts. I wanted to try all of them but I was quite full so I didn't get to =[

Left to right: chocolate mouse topped with a macaroon, tiramisu, strawberry tart, strawberry mousse, chocolate mousse, lemon slice

And it was actually my mum's birthday, so here's the picture of the cake.

Chocolate mud cake

 I don't think I mentioned this earlier, but my cousin actually works here, so we got an extra free cake!
