Christmas dinner @ La Vie Cafe 2010

Location: Taman Gaya, Johor Bahru

The open concept kitchen. The chef AKA the boss is cooking all the main dishes in front of dining tables.

The menu for Christmas special dinner

Hot teas are unlimited refillable

The appetizers: chicken bradswurts sausage in bacon rolls, cold beancurb with shitake mushrooms.

Baked Dory fillets with Balsamic Vinegar

Seafood Alio Oglio Pasta

Pork Chop In special Balsamic Vinegar sauce.

This is the special main course available only for Christmas. Must give thumbs for this dish for the excellent tender pork fillet, well marinated, good match with the home made steamed mashed potato underneath.....

Chocolate Fondue with strawberry, cookie sticks and marshmallows. This is the 1st time I have it in the cafe. Will never try for next time. The chocolate dip was made of chocolate powder which did not give out the choco thick fragrance and taste, too cheap powder??

Vanilla Ice cream in cream puffs. Must try! very crispy cream puffs are best matched with chocolate syrups and vanilla ice cream.

Special dessert for Christmas dinner

Christmas dinner set only costs RM33.90 per set. Value for $$ and good taste =)

Above average taste and delicate decoration of dishes which do not cost much for each and everything in there. And you can obviously see the effort of the chef.

Interior is good, clean and quiet.... but, too smokey to dine in with the open kitchen. Need improvement on the ventilation.
