Firefox, you can go and try Dynasty Dragon at the Summit (Ground Floor) near Subway / Black canyon Coffee part of Summit. Food is good and price is reasonable for a fancy restaurant from checklist menu at RM3.80 per item, you can also do special ala carte orders - i.e. special roast meats, scallops based etc etc .... check the menu for pricing.

Sure will, Currymee i will check this out.
Thanks a heap.

And could your dim sum meal will cost somewhere RM30++ a head on the average?... not really an economical cost meal is it?
Disclaimer: of course if anyone with cost no object eating out..by all means.

Was there yesterday for breakfast... I still like the place despite change of management of the hotel. My friends from Brunei love the dim sum here.

BS, firefox request qualification was "Someplace with lots of variety with clean enviroment." He didnt mention anything on cost mah!! In any case, if you have CIMB/Direct Access Card, ada discount. 2 pax - 50%, 3 pax - 33%, and so forth.

I though these discounts only for CIMB/Direct Access "Platinum" Card holders only?

You are correct - as in the in case of KL Hilton. But in the case of Grand Dorset (former Sheraton), they are quite happy to accept the CIMB/Direct Access Gold Card, which is fine with me ! Have been dining there often since the promotion started. So, just go there to Emperor, enjoy your meal and just flash your card quietly and dont ask question, ok?

Very often two of us cost less than RM50. One trick of the trade when dining out in Chinese restaurants of big hotels, BRING your own tea. You save a lot. Try it and tell me if you dont.

Its true, perhaps ok if just you as a couple. Weird if you do that with a larger group eating out, unless everyone is extremely familiar with your habit.

Restaurant char is quite often pricey, not to mention the inclusion of peanuts, service charge, garmen tax... GST later on?... many won't be smiling then..

Aiyah BS, sometimes you very straight forward lah. We do that always, even when in a group. Sometime we even have 2 tables, and we still provide our own char. Why? The hotel's tea is not the higher end quality we want. They also agree. So we bring our own tea! No need to pai seh lah!!

[bslee]

They also agree. So we bring our own tea! No need to pai seh lah!!

True oso lah!.. Me a bit straightforward like you say. BTW, what tea brand or type do you bring often?

Pat, v dun hv to inform them when we are seated at the outset that we are CIMB platinum/infiniti card holders to enjoy the 50% discount or v can get the discount when asking the bill and flash the card?

Not sure le, like our BMW M'sia club, we seemed to have to inform the waiter/captain first.
