Darling loves to celebrate big day with delicate and expensive 3-5 course meal, but I actually not really into it, because the serving portion is really too small for me, and another thing is I don't think such meal is worth. So this Valentine's day we change for buffet dinner, at least I think it worth for the same value of money, I can eat more variety and quantity of foods.
After few reviews search, darling decided to bring me to Hilton Kuala Lumpur, a 5 start hotel located near KL central. Thanks darling for always set so much store by these important dates, bringing me the celebration with delicious and romantic dinner! Hope this spirit can last until we old, because if you miss once I will be very disappointed.
Hilton KL is like a twin to Le Meridien hotel, had visited the Le Meridien buffet during my cousin's buffet, and now is the turn to Hilton KL, both hotels have almost similar layout for the buffet restaurant and type of foods served, however I personally think that Hilton KL has better and fresher food.
At the hotel lobby, was impressed with its sumptuousness
We celebrated Valentine's day earlier in the weekend, because we just don't want to eat rush and crowded with people. Also, this Valentine's day fall on Tuesday, it is kinda tired to celebrate after whole day work.
Then we arrived at the Sudu, our dining place
Sudu is a restaurant that served buffet and a la carte dining, this is part of the buffet lines that serve some Malaysia local dishes and Chinese stew
We were arranged to the corner table, if you are yearn for wine, you can opt for the bottomless wine offer for RM90++ per person
And here's the buffet line, not manage to capture all because I am still shy to walk around and capture photo of every dish, leaving out the soup and ice cream bar.
Beef tenderloin and bake potato
Chicken tenderloin
Chinese delights
Chinese stew
Pasta counter, cook upon order, and you can choose your own ingredients
Fresh seafood bar, serve very fresh oyster, clam, mussel and crab
Japanese sushi and sashimi bar
Salad and appetizer counter
Bread rack
Cheese counter
Dessert counter
Love the silky smooth chocolate from the mini chocolate fountain
Our meal for the night, we took almost every dish but all are for sharing. Although the type of food may not be as many as Jogaya buffet, the taste is incredibly good and fresh.
First plate we had the cheese popover, baked potato, grill vegetables and roast beef and chicken tenderloin. I especially love the roast beef slice, so tender and juicy, also without the awful beef smell; the other were good as well.
Darling order a plate of Bolognese spaghetti, with bacon, sausage and mushroom as side ingredients. You can add mussel and big prawn too, but darling ask the chef to pick for him, so we don't have seafood inside, perhaps it just simply doesn't match with tomato sauce spaghetti. Also, you can opt for carbonara sauce and other spaghetti type like macaroni, fettuccine and etc. The spaghetti is appetizing, the sauce is just different from the ordinary can tomato puree taste that I am so bored to, it is an earthy one.
The third plate we had Peking duck in egg crepe, roast duck, creamy stew chicken, and fried potato
Then it is the raw seafood platter, everything was so fresh, I specially love the oyster, juicy! But I didn't take a lot, because darling warned me for stomachache! Regretting!
Darling's favorite, sashimi platter! The raw salmon was very fresh and soft!
Something that I cannot resist, the cheese platter! However, I just knew not every kind of cheese tastes good since this! The blue cheese tastes appalling~ The other kind was equally good, best served with the cracker and bread stick!
Green pea soup, they have another kind of soup but I forget its name! We didn't manage to finish the green pea soup, as its taste was too earthy and vegetive, yeah we are Carnivore!
Some other Malaysia local dishes we had, peas salad, chicken and beef cooked in Malay style, Chinese stew vegetables, Asian fragrant rice and Mamak style squid curry; a palatable one.
Darling took another plate of sashimi, this time with sushi
Something from salad and appetizer counter
Dessert time, we had small and cute cakes and Malaysia local Kuih-muih as first plate of dessert. Everything was good and not too sweet, I love them present in such delicate way!
Then some big slice of cakes, creme brulee and marshmallow and donut coated in chocolate as our second plate of dessert
The hotel waitress was so attentive that serving us tea or coffee when we were about to take dessert
Blueberry ice cream and Kiwi sherbet, served with chocolate chips, cookies and almond flakes
The blueberry ice cream was too good, therefore I had another bowl. This time I ordered vanilla flavor and blueberry, guess what the chef did for me? He "fried" the ice cream for me! Well, it is actually "fried" without fire, meaning that he mix both ice cream with iron griddle and acting like cooking something over the Teppanyaki plate, so end up with this nicely mixed vanilla blueberry ice cream. Also, in the process of "frying", you can add in other ingredients like chocolate chips, almond flakes, and shredded coconut to mix with the ice cream. This tastes so delicious and smooth!

Even during the dining time, we love to capture photos of ourselves.
Oh my God see how round my face is, it is the time to remind myself of getting on diet
Darling is also getting fat, however everything is accumulated in his big tummy, no fat look from his face and body! This is so unfair!
The salad and appetizer bar serves something tastes like Turkish, which I yearned for

For this year Valentine's gift, darling bought me something I wanted long. It is a tablet, Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, it is something light and useful that I needed whenever I travel or go to school. I was in dilemma of choosing Ipad2 or this one, however after reading few reviews and considering myself as heavy user (will be using this tablet to blog, handling school works, surfing net, games etc.), I decided with this Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, and forego Ipad2. The reasons I forego Ipad2 are because it cannot support flash, also it cannot perform multitask, and Samsung has bigger size of RAM, better camera resolution, and GPS and bluetooth mode which is not available in Ipad2. Again, Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 can let me experience personalized tablet with more flexibility. From all reasons, I still choose back my Samsung, which is a good thing also because it is compatible with my phone S2.
Thanks darling for such a wonderful gift! It really brings my life easier! Choose white color one for my tablet, but actually nothing different after wearing the book cover
Yeah, purchase this from the same store and same sales person as when we purchased S2
I cannot afford expensive gift (still a poor student
), so buy this Polo perfume for my darling, hope you like it lah!!! 
No expensive gift for him, but cook a lovely dinner for him on the Valentine's night, grilled salmon with carbonara spinach fettucine; and made him a video to recall our in love moments.
