Christmas Lunch @ Salsas, Hotel Continental

I have always liked the food served at Salsas Restaurant. It's affordable and yet elegantly prepared. Worth every dime!

We have been going to Salsas since early 2010, if i remember correctly. Or was it ...?
Anyway, my point being that the food is good!

I've been wanting to write about Salsas food and service, since i can remember... their dinner sets are heavier than their lunch sets... I'll write about their dinner sets in another post.

For Christmas this year, we had lunch there!

Here's their Christmas day lunch menu:-

For starters, their freshly baked bun rolls. It's really special because they have on them buns some Indian spices...( i think it's charoli) which gives it a special taste...


And their soups... simply delicious... not too thin nor too thick... just right... and served just the way it's suppose to be... hot ;)


Each Lunch set comes with a choice  of soup or salad, drinks and dessert

Garden salad comes dressed with French dressing and balsamic vinegar


Drink choices: Iced Lemon Tea, Iced Peach Tea, Mango Juice, Orange Juice, Coffee or Tea
For the Dinner Set, salad is served with soup and drinks... and the salad is so much better at Dinner :) Priced more too!

Back to the Christmas lunch... Main courses

We had:-
1) Grilled roll thigh of chicken - with fresh vegetables and potatoes RM18.50++


~~~~

2) Baked crusted snapper fish - with fresh vegetables and potatoes RM18.50++
~~~~


3) Grilled minute streak - with fresh vegetables and potatoes RM18.50++


~~~~


All thress dishes were delicious...  and well presented too! Don't you think so?


Finally, dessert.... cake and ice cream



here's the view of the Restaurant from inside...

Lucky thing we made reservations for Christmas lunch! As you can see, the place was packed!

Merry Christmas 2011

This year, we put up our Christmas tree quite late...only in December...
If I recall correctly, it's usually in November that it's already up? Anyhow, I love how the tree turned out...
Feels so Christmas-y... so festive :)

Put up the tree on the 4.12.2011
Here's how it looks like in it's complete-ness...

As usual, Christmas shopping was left to the last minute... so here's how the tree looks with the presents...
much much later...


Thank goodness for Wrapping Counters! hehe...
They did a good job wrapping all the pressies...

Oh, and i bought a few more decorations for the tree...


This is a festive lamp i got from IKEA Singapore last year (2010)
 Now everything feels soooo Christmas-y....!

Merry Christmas everybody!!!

Ho~Ho~HO!
