Noble House@Jln Delima.

Wedding anniversaries are good occasions to rekindle loving and long lasting relationships.

I attended my second Uncle and Auntie's 60th wedding anniversary dinner @ Noble House.

All of their children with spouses/husband and grand children were there to celebrate the joyful occasion with them.

There were karaoke singing of love songs for the couple, the unwrapping of presents, the candle blowing and making a wish before the slicing of a cheesecake to end the simple dinner. 

I am envious of them as I am only at my 32nd wedding anniversary.

The food presentation are good and pleasing to the eyes.

Parking is bearable.




Noble House's Seafood three treasures-Scallop with smoked bacon pie (cheesey and flamed) -prawn with mango sauce (fresh and thick dip -wish I could have more )and Salmon cubes in zucchini boat (good crunch to the fresh Salmon)-a good appetizer.

Double-boiled Coral Shark's Fin in coconut with chicken meat and vegetable-the soup was very flavorful and full of nutrients-star of the night.

Braised whole Abalone (tender with every bite) sitting on a piece of silky smooth bean curd topped with grounded dried oyster and fatt choy and blanched broccoli -bathed with a thick brown abalone sauce.

Baked white Tuna fish with special sauce in a Dragon fruit boat-well pan fried, flaky with sesame topping and round white flesh scooped Dragon fruit at the bottom..

Fragrant crispy pork belly in Lettuce- julienned carrot, zucchini and spring onion-wrapped it up and chewed it -was a good exercise for the jaw- a bit salty to my liking.

Fresh water prawn with sang mee (a bit soggy when soaked too long, in superior prawn soup)-the prawn was of the right size but was not so fresh.

Deep fried sweet potato ball and deep fried sesame glutinous ball (served hot and warm) with chilled sweetened Aloe Vera and Longan.


Lemon Cheese cake-moist and fulfilling..

DINNER-GENTING INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION CENTRE

We were at the dinner at the GICC, First World Hotel, at about 7.45 p.m. early by Malaysian standard. It was half packed with eager diners, while the host was seen mingling among the crowds. The pillar less hall was huge and high ceiling. There were about 150 tables (RM1500/table) for tonight's dinner and the stage was filled with lots of hampers for the lucky draw. We were ushered to our table in the middle of the hall, with a clear view of the happenings on stage. The dinner started at 8.15 p.m. after the arrival of VIPs. Our table was lucky as one of the guy, got a rice cooker hamper.

The spacious and huge hall.

Candle lit table.

Three selected hot and cold platter-1.deep fried century roll-was crispy 2.sea asparagus with Thai style-was soft and spicy.3.prawn salad-was really cold and covered with mayonnaise.

Shark's fin soup with crab meat and pacific clam-was bland, slightly diluted and not much shark's fin

Roasted chicken with prawn cracker-came as cold as the room temperature-sublime-only consolation is the crispy prawn cracker.

Sweet and sour sea bass-was mud smelled-cleverly masked by the sauce-garnished with spring onions-flesh was tender and well battered.

Braised black mushroom and tau kang with broccoli-mushrooms was tender and moist-bean curd skin was soft and smooth- broccoli was crunchy.

Fried rice with pineapple-was the best dish of the night.

Deep fried mini pao-was filled with kaya and fluffy inside

Iced longan with black grass jelly-i never expected to be served such cheap dessert-was surprised -it tasted sweet and blended well

The other guests at our tables.

Went back with freebies too-dry noodle, red rice, wheat flour, rice flour,white rice and 3 in 1 coffee.

Overall the food was o.k. taking in consideration that they have to cooked for 150 tables.
