CASSIS RESTAURANT @ TTDI | KL FRENCH JAPANESE HAUTE CUISINE

 It’s true that art comes in various forms- in this case, it’s the art behind the intricate culinary of this Japanese French-inspired dining, Cassis located at TTDI.

 

With the brand name bearing the iconic fruit from Burgundy, Cassis is located few shops down from Lut Gastrobar and intuitively identified by its minimalist yellowish glowing entrance to the upper floor which then leads diners to an interior of pristine understatement.

 

The space is aesthetically designed for utter languor and comfort, yet the atmosphere is buttoned-up with fresh flowers on every table against the splendour white-themed space. The sight of them is akin to a prelude that literally just unwind you effortlessly while preparing you for the gastronomical session next.

We were there for their 4-Course Lunch Menu, which we felt was a lovely deal packaged at MYR188 per pax considering the course are elaborately crafted with fine food and ingredients of French quintessence.

 

TO START

***********

Bread Basket

Chicken Liver Mousse with Drunken Raisins , Sardine 'n' Garlic Butter

Lemon-Vanilla Marmalade & Truffle Cream Cheese

Chicken Croquette with Black Truffle

Lobster Puff

New Zealand Salmon King Tartare

Burrata with Tomato, Basil, Extra Virgin Olive, Aged Balsamic

Confit Abalone with Extra Virgin Olive Oil

The breads were very soft and inhouse baked freshly that went really well with specially concocted house relish. The buttery croissant wass divine, together with the pillowy soft rustic loaves that pulled off so well with the truffled cream cheese that was uber umami, on top of the crispy crepe that amusingly complemented by the salmon tartare.

 

SOUP

***********

Smoked Clam Chowder

~ Fish Nugget, Corn, Garlic Crouton, Parsley ~

  Soup was delightfully delivered with the right consistency spiced up with bits of fresh fish meats

Duck Foie Gras with Japanese Perch ‘n’ Miso Caramel

(supplement MYR 68)

The foie gras was impeccably done, nicely crisped on the outside while remaining melt-in-the-mouth sensation within. The idea of incorporating fruity peach with miso caramel was intriguing but reassuring at the same time for it created an unexpected gustation of pleasant medley of savoury sweetness which I have yet come across thus far. It also helped to delicately cut through the richness of the foie gras, simply brilliant!

MAIN

***********

Aged MB5 Australia Black Angus Sirloin

~ Baby Spinach, Mushroom, Beef Jus ~

or Miyazaki A5 Sirloin

(supplement MYR180)

 We had the beef done medium rare, it was specklessly tantalizing even on its own without the jus.

Maine Lobster & Scallop

~ Asparagus, Lemongrass, Kaffir Lime Leaf, Lobster Sauce ~

(supplement MYR 98)

 Bouncy in every bites- it’s hard to find flaws in fresh seafood. 

SWEETS

***********

Shine Muscat Tart

Strawberry Cheesecake

Chocolate 'n' Peanut Butter Éclair

Mango Yogurt

Earl Grey Jelly with Vanilla Cream

Varlhorna Chocolate Truffle

 Certainly an indulgent orchestra of moreish petit gâteau that was impossible to resist. The earl grey jelly was particularly enchanting with its subtle flavour, that greatly complements the more decadent desserts. You just can’t go wrong with French patisserie ……..

~ Coffee or Tea ~

 As for tea, I went for Comptoirs Richard Fruits Rouge (Wild Berry) for some soothing after-meal notes.

All in all, it was a spectacular afternoon of sumptuous repast, showcasing the intricacy of refined dining. Coupled with the unassuming ambiance of the venue exclusiveness, it definitely makes the ideal place to surprise your special ones memorably.

 Till then, cheers for now and follow us at Carpe Diem for more ‘food-ful’ discoveries!
