Kiss for Lunch




Yea, how else can you make your daily routine exciting! Try out lunch at Bisou (means "kiss; if you will parlez francais , pardon my French).






Decided to catch up with my old friend, Chui after a long spell of very busy schedule and cancelled appointments, and since her office is on Jalan Sultan Ismail, best course of action ( takes like 10 minutes in KL traffic to get to Bisou, on Heritage Row), so away to Bisou, we went. Also I'd been meaning to check out their lunch menu and wanted to introduce this lovely cafe/restaurant to Chui , who also loves good food.



Chui ordered the chicken pie and asked for more vegetables instead of mash which the waiter mistakenly thought she wanted an extra order of salad , so caused a very hungry Chui to be just a tad annoyed coz it took two trips for the chicken pie back into the kitchen before she got her additional vegetables of peas and the kitchen just cudn't bear to let Chui have the pie without any mash and served half the mash on top of the additional vegetables at no charge...so "peas" all round.

Meanwhile, I ordered the smoked salmon bagel and it is really delicious...it's really difficult to get good bagels in Kuala Lumpur, most bagels tend to taste like bread, but the bagel at Bisou is springy just as bagels should be(think New York bagels). A very generous topping of creme cheese brings out the subtle flavor of the salmon and the bagel and makes a delightfully filling lunch with all the nutritions as the accomnpanying salad with vinaigrette dressing balances the heaviness of the cream cheese. Finished the meal off with some coffex cafe latte and and we were two happy campers.


Note:There is loads of parking space right next to Bijou, open car park.Would advise that you come in from Jalan Sultan Ismail and not from Jalan Dang Wangi especialy on Fridays to avoid the jams especially this Ramadhan month!
