Pictures and story by Olivia Miwil
Ordering the same food of what I had few years back at the same restaurant is
sort of a time-travelling experience. ?If I am lucky, the similar
delicious taste would help in recalling the conversation and mood that
took place before. Otherwise, it usually turns out to be my last visit
to the restaurant.
?How do you ensure your food will be as great as now in future? Have
your main chef signed a life-long contract with this restaurant??.
Those were the questions I asked Farrari Restaurant & Bistro manager
Jack Lau after I enjoyed few of its signature dishes.
Lau, who has been in this industry since he was 10, assured me that
the quality would remain the same even if their main chef Donny
Richard was going to leave them.
The restaurant?s production team is going to take care of the quality
as they are responsible in keeping the inimitable secret recipes.
?Another words, by having this production team, any of our workers
will be able to serve of what you are having today,? he added.
As he gave his words, I decided to put some faith to drop by this
place more often in future especially during lunch time.
Farrari offers value added sets lunch priced at RM9.90 each which
comprises of main course, soup of the day and a tall-size glass lemon
tea.
For the main course, I opted for Spaghetti Carbonara among other
choices including Asian food. ?The spaghetti is accompanied with
hearty portion of black pepper grilled chicken. The combination
textures of smooth creamy spaghetti and grounded-black pepper dish is
totally a new pleasant experience for me.
I was curious on how the restaurant earns profit from those lunch set
dishes served in big portion with most of the high-quality ingredients
are imported.
The manager explained that the eatery would eventually make money once
customers agreed their products were more worthy than what they?ve
paid.
?The restaurant intends to impress customers so that they will revisit
this place and of course help us to spread the good news to others,?
he added.
Besides the money aspect, my concern will be whether the food could
provide my good health. ? Their homely-taste mushroom soup was
satisfying mainly because it used fresh ingredients and is served
while it?s warm.
Other must-try item is the restaurant?s signature Farrari burger. The
presentation where the burger patty was on top of the bun left me a
deep impression as a burger that has its bun sandwiched between
patties? And the dish came with black pepper gravy that was sweetened
with pineapples slices. ?I like to cut them from top to bottom, seeing
the soft minced beef dissembled and fell into the gravy, and scoop the
entire thing to my mouth.
Another dish, the lamb shank looked really appetising as it had the
shining black pepper appearance, the next bottom layers were the
buttery mashed potatoes and greenish coral salad. It was a harmony
colorful dish.
The meat imported from New Zealand, was marinated and slow-grilled for
two days before it was served. Yes, the taste of black pepper was
absorbed into the tender meat.
At here, during daytime, its yam-flavored bubble drink is one of the
most-selling beverages. For me, its ?bubble? referring to a
rounded-shape ball made from tapioca is the main factor to say whether
the drink is good or otherwise. As I chewed them, the size of bubbles
was only medium as compared to other brands, and it has springy
texture.
-Ends.
