RESTORAN GENTING PALACE.

We went on a one day trip to Genting Highlands to escape the city's heat.

After a light breakfast of Yong Tofu, we arrived at the peak at about 10.30 am.

We went on a twenty minutes ride on a cute caterpillar Monorail train (Rm8/person) which started from the Indoor Theme Park and encircled around the Outdoor Theme Park with a great view of the whole resort- people howled and screamed on terror adrenalin pumping rides like Rollercoaster, Spaceshot, Pirate Ship, Giant Swing, ....etc

The weather was kind to us-cool, windy and misty with thick white clouds overhead, just nice for a walk around.

Came lunchtime, we ate at Restoran Genting Palace located just a few steps from the main casino.
Restoran Genting Palace is grand with a warm, cozy and quiet ambiance.

Service was good and attentive.


The front of the restaurant.

The interior.

Sea prawns fritter-fried to perfection-crispy on the outside and juicy and succulent inside-a bit oily though!-Rm45/

BBQ meat platter-braised Duck, slithery Jellyfish, flavorful baby Octopus, crispy roasted Chicken and meaty BBQ Pork with a yin yang sauce dip-too bad the dish was served cold- Rm50/

Steamed Cod-bathed in good sweet tasting XO Soy sauce and garnished with spring onion and cilantro-gelatinous skin with meat which was fresh, smooth and very fine in texture-Rm56/

Stir fried Kai Lan with cloves of Garlic-plump, leafy and crunchy-Rm23/

Beancurd stuffed with Fishpaste and topped with fresh Scallop and sweet Bean paste- soft silky smooth white round Japanese Beancurd-firm Fish paste and fresh, tender, sweet and refreshing scallop-the sauce complemented it so well!-Rm38/

So gracious of Datin to serve us tea.

Total bill:Rm 269/
Location: a few steps from the Highland Hotel casino entrance.

I've been to Gentings a couple of years ago. I'm not really into casinos, but the theme park was fun!

If I go back, I must try this restaurant!
