After waiting patiently for a week, our date night with Chef Antoine at Prime was finally here!
Joey and I made our way to Le Meridien at 6+, and was caught in a slight jam at Jalan Tun Razak. Darling was already waiting for us at the hotel.
The hostess at Prime showed us to a table for 4, we were greeted by Elan, Assist F & B Director, whom we met the last time we were here in Prime. After we were seated, Fauzy, - F&B Director of Le Meridien came by to sit with us. I was introduced to him at MOsaic when he and Chef Antoine were here in MOsaic for lunch. Fauzy sat with us while we flip thru the menu in excitement, contemplating on what we should order. We finally settled for the Wagyu Prime Rib (RM480 -1kg). Since we know that it is good enough for 3 of us, we only added a side dish of Truffle Mashed Potatoes and Creamy Spinach with Garlic.
Chef Antoine popped in to say hello, amidst the busyness in Latest Recipe which was doing 300 covers for that night. He arranged some appetizers for us, and boy were we in for a treat! I shall let the pictures below do all the talking.
