Went to Basil Leaf Restaurant at Jalan Damai last Friday night for our first wedding anniversary dinner. Been wanting to try this place since we discovered it few months back, but due to the expensive'ness' hehe, we reserved it for a very special occasion onlylah. And anniversary is indeed the very special occasion hehe.
It has quite a cozy environment, surrounded by bamboo trees, very quiet (but that might be because not many people come to this place alsolaa haha), with the sound of running water and soothing, traditional Thai music.
SRB booked a place by the garden, so we sat outside facing a beautiful expatriate house with a see-through living room. Seriously, diorang tak conscious ke people can see what they're doing in the living room? Or they purposely wanna show off their big screen TV? Hehe.
The outdoor sitting area was very dimly lit, I assume to create a more romantic ambiencelah kan. But you know what, the lighting was too dim that we couldn't even see the engraving on items we bought for each other. Sampai kena pakai lampu handphone budusss lawak betul! Maybe they saje buat the lampu terang enough to read their menu but not to read any other things hehe.
The food was in general quite good - but also quite expensive. I mean, we can get food of the same quality with a cheaper price elsewhere. But I guess we're paying for the environment as well, coz I must say, the place is sooo nice and relaxing. It's like a piece of heaven in the middle of KL city chewahhh. The service also I must say is first-classlah (the way it should be for places like these).
Since the lighting in our sitting area was like lampu from pelita, I didn't manage to capture decent pictures from my non-SLR camera. So if you wanna take a real look of Basil Leaf Restaurant, please visit their official website at http://www.basilleafrestaurants.com/gallery.html
But I managed to snap a pic of the 'Flower Boy' muahaha don't kill me babe!
