our Valentine's day @ Tao

-14.02.2011-

valentine's day is a big day for every couples...

on this romantic day, every restaurants, shops will be decorated...

can easily feel the love in the air~

in fact, the true story behind this romantic day was a sad story...

can't remember when was it, the story was about people were not allowed to get married as the government wanted the man concentrate on fighting during the war~

but there was a priest named Valentine insisted on hosting wedding for all the couples...

when the government found out Valentine still hosting wedding, he has been sentenced to death...

therefore, to commemorate Valentine, people declared his birthday as Valentine's day...

that's a little about the story...

and i'm still celebrating Valentine's day...

this year, we decided to have buffet...

a buffet restaurant that we wanted to try for so long... 

Tao Authentic Asian Cuisine @ Giza Sunway Kota Damansara

menu~ they served ala-carte buffet... or they should said "Eat All You Can"... XD

simple table setting~ although it was Valentine's day... 

we took their Valentine special package which costed us RM198 for 2 pax...

initially they charged RM58++ per pax for dinner...

we were so lucky that night~ the waiter who served us was so kind...

he introduced those hot pick menu for us...

and reminded us that sashimi was served as buffet near the entrance...

right after our order made, bei walked to the oysters and grab some for us...

fresh oysters but were a bit too small... =P

the 1st ordered dish - tempura...

nice! the prawns were fresh~

crispy outside and soft inside...yum!

i kinda like this cheese baked scallops...

cheesy yet not cover the scallop taste...

like like like~ do remember finish it while it still hot...

they served variety of sashimi...

and we tried almost every type of it...

fresh enough~ i might not go to Tenji anymore...

the Valentine special...

not really a fantastic dish, but the rose added some credit on it...

or should say bei added some credit on it by using the rose... =)

a very nice looking dish...very the Valentine... ^^

grilled salmon with special sauce...

but i didn't know what's the sauce...

tasted quite okay~ i didn't really try on it because by the time it served on our table, i already quite full...

i only remember the salmon was quite fresh... (>.<)

the Valentine package came with a heart shape balloon, a teddy bear soft toy and also a bottle of red wine...

we kept the red wine because we wanted to travel back to hometown right after the dinner~

the red wine was not nice! the teddy bear was not nice! only the heart shape balloon was nice! 

we enjoyed our Valentine dinner a lot...

and the staff over there was kind and polite...

they provided good services...

because of their good services, we don't mind to be their spoke person... XD

throughout the dinner, we grabbed a waiter to help us on taking instax photo...

although the photo was not perfect, but still thank to his kindness...

we had another instax photo at the entrance before we left the restaurant...

and i love that photo so much!

met a very friendly couple, they helped us took photos too...

and of course, we helped them back~

our lovely photos... had a great night with bei~ happy valentine's day everyone!

it was a great night~

i will definitely go back whenever i feel like having Japanese buffet...

 it might not as variety as Tenji or Jogoya...

by paying only RM58++ for dinner, what do we expect?

somehow it's cheaper, fresher and nearer to me... ha!
