Lunch with Dr Perricone

They launched their new eye gel - Cold Plasma today over a healthy lunch at the Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur.

I only have one thing to say. Well two things.

A. Launch was trying to be classy and all, but dammit the product stinks like no other! Dr Perricone believes in getting the best of your skin in three ways: through diet, nutriceutical supplements, and his award-winning line of skin care products and cosmeceuticals. Doing so, there are no artificial fragrances and all that nonsense in the products.

Cold Plasma, has DHA in it a.k.a fish oils!!! Garrrghhhhh. It actually smelt like dead fish! It was THAT horrid!!!

B. Healthy food isn't that all bad after all... but heck gimme regular food any day! On the same note, I loved the appetizer and entree.... not too crazy about the main and dessert...

Anyways, here you some food pix! :)

Our menu for the day

I found this to be interesting. Organic tomato consomme with tomato gazpacho caviar. I didn't know it was cold and they served it in a martini glass! How cool is that!!!

The forbidden bread basket. Bad carbs!!! But tasted oh so heavenly *swoon*


The entree - smoked salmon salad with aragula leaves, sliced almonds and cantaloupe compression.
p/s: LOVED this!

Macadamia seared halibut with eggplant caviar, grapefruit clams fricasse and a lemon chive dressing.

Almond grapefruit financier with yoghurt sorbet and cranberry reduction.
