AHA tasting night


AHA! We were tasked and forced, not much convincing needed actually, to try out the dishes at our new resto venture. AHA comes from the same brilliant and somewhat crazy minds that run Hotel de la Paix, Meric, Arts Lounge and Spa Indochine.

You can see our cooks enclosed in this gas chamber, este, kitchen.

That way you can see them if they are doing anything hanky panky with your food.

Eel with holy basil, Pink salmon with spices, Tuna crsuted with herbs

Rissotto white wine balls, spiced squid, fish with coco cream

honeycomb ice cream, jasmine rice pudding with coconut sorbet (MY FAVE! DIVINE!), tapioca with mango and coconut

I'm a magazine junky and I think the whole hotel knows about it already since I've bugged them to bring me some whenever they go out of the country like Bangkok. Our GM, Nick, usually brings me lots of magazines.

I was pleasantly surprised that day when I had this Quintessentiall Wicked magazine lying on my table. Well, it happened to come from the bestest Sales Director in the whole wide world, Noelene. She said the magazine was very me except I think couldn't afford to buy whatever is featured in there right now. Sob! Huhuhuhu! Oh, well I'll just dream about it since it's free.

Also, Junko, our Japanese Guest Relations gave me the latest Touchstone because there are Khmer artists featured inside. How sweet! I swear the people here in the hotel are so thoughtful.
