Hotel breakfast to me was obligatory. More often than not, I would drag myself out of bed around an hour before the serving time ends in order to make full use of my stay. Nothing follows after that, and certainly not a full blog post. César’s, however, was an exception.
The next morning after our comfort stay at Ritz-Carlton Hotel Kuala Lumpur (made excellent with their turndown service), we went down to César’s at Level 1 for breakfast. Once seated, we were given an ala-carte menu to choose from, and there was no such thing as limited one dish per person. With choices spreading across two pages, it was indeed tough to make up our minds. Ah, how I wish to taste a bit of everything from their healthy selections of organic (cereal, milk, oatmeal), gluten free (bread & muffin), egg dishes (poached, omelette, benedict) to sweet specialities (toast, pancake, waffle).
Owing to the limited capacity in the ladies’ stomach, we’ve ordered only Eggs Benedict (poached eggs served with beef bacon, mushrooms and hollandaise sauce), Eggs Royale (poached eggs served with smoked salmon, grilled tomato and hollandaise sauce), Belgian Waffles (served with maple syrup, honey and berry compote) and French Toast (served with roasted almonds and berry compote).
While waiting for our orders to arrive, we browsed at their nicely arranged buffet spread of cereals, muesli, fruit (including seedless grapes), cold cuts (salmon, chicken, beef), grilled zucchini with capsicum, salads, pickles and much more, which of course we couldn’t help but to take a few more plates.
Everything on our round tabletop that were meant to cater for at least 4 people had to be rearranged, just to make space for all the food, including pastries of croissants, Danish, as well as the cute swirling jam holder.
Yes, only 2 ladies against one whole table of food. They were colorful, appealing, and made us look like we've starved for at least 2 days. As mentioned in Agnes’ blog, we really didn’t know how we managed to finish them. The food in general was so good I couldn’t find fault whatsoever. Oh and did I mention they served us free flow of fresh fruit juice? The service was impeccable.
I wouldn’t find myself asking for hotel breakfast walk-in rate (RM68++) in most cases but again, César’s was an exception.
