The Olive, Genting Highlands

A Friday evening trip to Genting Highlands' Genting Hotel ... The Olive. Always wanted to dine here and had the pleasure of doing so last week, it was good! Thanks for the treat :-)


Starters ... We had lobster bisque, salmon, scallops and carpaccio of wagyu et al. All very good!

The mains ... Piece de resistance 'Wagyu tenderloin' (Tender, juicy and beautifully cooked - what more need I say!), beautiful beef ribs in a delightfully tasty sauce, and surprisingly good squid ink pasta!

The wine choice for the night ... very good too.

Ps. Description from Genting's website...
"Located at the Lobby Floor of Genting Hotel, the Restaurant exudes a modern, arty design with a casual, welcoming feel in its 'olive' colours and warm lighting. Offering Continental cuisine served in a trendy yet elegant ambiance, the food features textures, flavours and styles in a blend of classical recipes with contemporary ingredients and tastes. There are choices of the best cuts of meat, seafood, salads, pizzas, delicious desserts, fine wines and more. Juicy, succulent Wagyu Beef is the house specialty. The promise of a gastronomic adventure awaits."
