I think I've just found that place!
After hearing how cool & modern The Mira Hotel had become after its $65 MILLION Dollar Refurb
I was eager to see for myself just what all the fuss was about
WHISK- Located on the 5/F of the Hotel
An Express Elevator WHISK (excuse the pun) me to the desired floor
The Restaurant entrance had a very Zen like feeling with a water feature behind the hostess desk
They also had a small but coz bar overlooking another restaurant, Cuisine Cuisine I think from what I saw on the lift.
The restaurant was on two levels with seating close to the window overlooking Cuisine Cuisine
I was seated on the upper level, the restaurant had only 3 tables when I arrived.
I was seated facing an outside terrace which they explained was another alfresco bar area for cigars and cocktails...cool nextime
The menu was the same as dinner with the exception of a business lunch set & a dinner Gourmet Menu with wine pairing
I opted for the Set Business Lunch @ 218 +10% inclusive of free flow Juice, Beer and a choice of White or Red with main course...what a steal/deal
The meal began with warm bread served in a silver boat with 3 varieties 1 white roll, 1 multi grain roll, 2 slices of wholemeal bread with walnuts & raisins. the bread was warm while the butter was nothing special. 4/10
They had a choice of 3 starters & 3 Main with a Chef's dessert or tray of home-made cakes or tarts
I choice the following
Roasted Asparagus with sauteed Mushrooms and Poached Egg (Classic Dish)
The asparagus was steamed then slightly pan seared sweet and crispy, while the mushrooms was sauteed in a little butter, the poached egg was still runny in the centre (as it should be) and made a great sauce with the mushroom & butter. (Great Start)
I mopped up the remaining egg yolk with some bread 5/10
Kind Prawn Spaghetti with Arrabiata Sauce (Spicy Chiili Tomato Base Sauce)
The main course came with 3 giant King Prawns they were just cooked so the meat was still juicy, sweet and tender, while the pasta was cooked al dente with some cherry tomatoes which gave the dish a slight sharpness to the dish, the only thing is that i wish it had a little more of a chilli kick to it 5/10
The Chef's Dessert was
Vanilla Bavarois with Berries and Mango Sorbet (Simple)
The bavarois could have done with another sheet of gelatin or more time to set
but the dish was good overall 3/10
I finished the meal off with a hot cup of tea & petite fours 3/10
Service- The hostess was prompt and polite, while the servers was attentive but not obtrusive, they gave good recommendation.
Atmosphere- The overall room was well maintained and was elegant yet casual
Food- The business Set Menu was great and as they keep reminding me that it changes every week, a great touch was the free flow fruit juice, beer
Sinopsis- my first experience at The Mira & WHISK was positive
in time will come back to try the other outets
5/10
