Restaurant: Xin Cuisine Chinese Restaurant, Concorde Hotel, Kuala Lumpur |
There is no need to travel to Beijing to sample the famous Peking duck delicacy. Here, at Concorde’s Xin Cuisine Chinese Restaurant, traditional Peking duck is featured throughout the month of March.
The Peking duck was first created and introduced by the palace chefs back in the Ming Dynasty where only exceptional quality dishes were cooked for the emperor. The preparation of the dish is rather interesting but time consuming. The duck have to be inflated to separate the skin from the fat. |

Duck Leg Confit served with Fondantes Potatoes topped with a slice of Pan Fried Goose Liver The duck confit was slightly on the dry side but the goose liver was the star despite the cameo role it was made to play. The roast potatoes was crunchy with a bite, and the vegetables mask the saltiness of the meat. It was a perfect combination except for the tenderness that was maybe missing somewhere. For RM78, i would order this again though. |
LA SALADE PERIGOURDINE AU FOIE GRAS, GESIERS CONFITS ET MAGRET FUME, RAISINS MARINES AU COGNAC

Dordogne Salad with Goose Liver Terrine, Gizzards Confit, Smoked Magret of Duck and Marinated Sultanas in Cognac Vinaigrette Available under their Gourmet Menu RM 148. With generous portions of terrine and duck breast pieces, this was not what i expected of a dainty salad. It was a muscular and filling salad and definitely could be a meal for a lady. The pieces of confit, was like pork lard to me, crunchy and absolutely gave the salad a crunch, just like croutons. |

THE VIBE THE FOOD For appetisers, Chef Jimmy Liew a.k.a. sous chef did minor improvisation; soups were served as a combination of two mini starters. The Cream of Forest Mushroom with truffle chantilly or better known as the mushroom soup is definitely my all-time favourite. Not forgetting the crouton, added texture to the soup. Well, it does require good taste buds to differentiate |
