8 Amazing Valentine’s Day menus you can order in the Klang Valley for takeaway/delivery

For some, food is the unspoken language of love. It brings people together and unites them in an intimate way. That’s what celebrating Valentine’s Day is all about. It’s a time to show appreciation to the special people in our lives. It could be the affection displayed from cooking a meal and setting a dinner table and/or the conversation we have over a glass of wine. Isolation during MCO for many has been a time to look inward. A time to be more self-sufficient and independent. But it is also a time to acknowledge the ones who mean the most to us. A parent, a sibling, or a secret crush, there aren’t many ways you can go wrong with a delectable dish or a sweet dessert. As we approach the third day of the Lunar New Year, (a.k.a Valentine’s Day), here are some menu selections to consider if you’re keen for a relaxed, stress-free, romantic meal at home.

1. Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur

Does it get any better than a four-course meal from one of KL’s premier five-star hotels? For Valentine’s Day 2021, Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur is serving up a delicious feast for two. Available for both delivery and takeaway, the Valentine’s Dinner Set Menu includes succulent Tiger Prawns for starters. The dish comprises a delectable prawn ceviche marinated with mango and Yuzu juice with a dash of habanero chilli for an element of spice. Next, the entrée. A decadent portion of seared scallop and truffle cream for the Celery Root Velouté followed by your choice of main course between the Beef Wellington or the Salmon Phyllo Parcel. The Beef Wellington is cooked with a red wine reduction and served with mashed potatoes, Bouchon Ceps mushroom, and heirloom carrots. The salmon is prepared with a citrus Beurre Blanc sauce and served with a side of mashed potatoes, heirloom carrots, and balsamic glazed vine tomatoes. What is Valentine’s without some delicious desserts to end the meal on a sweet note? The Golden Red Caramel Chocolate Box is filled with all sorts of goodies, from milk chocolate “Bavarois,” to passionfruit jelly and dark chocolate Petit Fours.

Le Méridien Kuala Lumpur is set to deliver a dynamic four-course gourmet dinner for two right to your doorstep. The hotel is presenting a Valentine’s Day box containing everything you need for an immaculate fine dining experience for you and your other half at home. Each course is even named after a cute phrase that seemingly represents the “commandments” of love. The appetiser or the “Love Is Patient” kickstarts the meal with an asparagus orange salad with crabs, prawns and fennel terrine green pea cream. For the intermediate portion of the menu or the “Love Is Kind” dish, it’s the Cream of Wild Mushroom Soup with blue cheese gnocchi and brioche croutons. The main course is titled “Love Does Not Envy” which is a Harissa-Spiced Chicken Roulade and the Smoked Duck Breast Pot Au Feu with truffle gyoza. Last but not least, the “Sweet Endings” for dessert: Sweet hazelnut mixed with zesty lemon in the White Chocolate Pudding, topped off with the Yuzu Honey Shooter Tube and a side of strawberry mascarpone cream.

3. St. Regis Kuala Lumpur

For Valentine’s Day, St. Regis Kuala Lumpur has prepared a luxurious feast, and it’s one for the meat lovers! The three-course menu consists of a hearty Dark Chicken Consommé soup, which has pickled shallot, sumptuous red meat dumplings and it’s topped off with garlic croutons. Next, the Black Angus Prime Beef Tenderloin consists of caramelised onion, celeriac puree, and 62 per cent Valrhona dark chocolate. For dessert, a lovely Pommes D’Amour, which is a vanilla mousse with apple compote, sable and apple ginger gel. The difference between the three-course meal and the five-course meal is the addition of the Foie Gras Magnum as a starter and the Amuse Bouche. Honestly, you won’t regret the addition of the Amuse Bouche—it’s not only elegant on the palate, but it’s also a sight for sore eyes. You have the Beetroot and Apple Flower, a gorgeous Savoury Pink Macaron with Fig Chutney and the Melon and King Crab Salad.

While dining in an intimate restaurant during MCO may be out of the question, dinner at home can be just as exciting with a romantic meal for two, courtesy of W Hotel Kuala Lumpur. Here’s a quick rundown of the menu. The starters incorporate a mix of local flavours with a Japanese twist. The first is the Dale Kekurub Salad; featuring Sarawak Job’s Tears (a tropical plant native to Southeast Asia), quail eggs, heirloom tomatoes, Kyuri sunflower seeds with a zesty lemon vinaigrette. Next, the Fresh Salmon Rice Paper Rolls comprised of sea grapes, fresh avocado, scallions, refreshing watermelon radish and Yuzu finished with Shaoxing wine. For mains, you have a choice of two from the selection of three. You may choose the Roasted Spring Chicken with fresh coriander sauce, the Grilled Australian Beef Rib Eye or for a seafood option, the Baked Barramundi Fillet with capers sauce. Then there’s the dessert. We recommend the Pop! Goes My Heart, a French Framboise Cream and Vinalla génoise cake sandwich with fun white chocolate popping candy.

5. Maria’s SteakCafe

Maria’s SteakCafe is offering a four-course home delivery menu for Valentine’s Day with main course options that range from Australian or Japanese Wagyu to Atlantic White Cod to New Zealand Lamb. We had the opportunity to try this menu and trust us when we say they didn’t disappoint. The Atlantic White Cod, in particular, was sensational. This melt-in-your-mouth main had a robust sake sauce, and a side of roasted potatoes and sautéed vegetables. The main course is accompanied by a delicate smoked salmon—as one of the appetisers—which was flavourful with every bite. The salmon portions were rich, tender and cooked to perfection, without the flesh being over-tenderised. The appetisers include a mushroom soup as well as a pumpkin soup. Both were a savoury delight, but between the two, the pumpkin stands out for its flavour. The soup was both thick and creamy with a velvety smooth texture. Then, there is the moist chocolate cake. The word ‘moist’ is apt here as every spoonful had a correct balance of spongy, rich chocolate cake with an indulgent dose of chocolate icing.

What do you get when you combine a juicy, spice-marinated French Lamb Rack alongside a gorgeous Belgian Cheese Cakesicle, placed in front of some sexy red satin fabric? You get a romantic dining experience for two thanks to Knowhere Bangsar. The curated Valentine’s Day menu by Knowhere gives you three choices for the main course. One, the Whole Roasted Chicken Leg, cooked with a sumptuous soy au jus and shiitake scallion risotto. Two, the Red Emperor Fish Fillet with ginger soy, mustard and cherries. Last but not least, the spice-marinated French Lamb Rack, cooked with a delicious Szechuan au jus, served with a healthy portion of mashed potatoes, greens and king oyster mushrooms. Then, we get to dessert. There is the Belgian Cheese Cakesicle (yes, that’s a combination of cake and popsicle), topped off with caramelised hazelnut and the Strawberry & Peach Cakesicle. Each with its own decadent crunchy shell that’s a bite away from revealing the sweetness within. The best part is, you get both. So it all boils down to you and your par
