Previously known as the two-starred Damenlou Hotel (大門樓旅店) until 2007, the 5-storeyed historical building on Ann Siang Hill was taken over the following year and transformed into a film and foodie haven called The Screening Room, with dining, wine, and theatrical experiences all under one roof.
I have been recommending this place to friends without having been there. At last, I got my chance early this month.
Our delightful appetizers raised the bar for the dishes to come.
Can't decide what to order? Their platters are good to start with.Feeling adventurous, we chose the less common Greek Platter ($18) that comprised selected bites with alien-sounding names.
Tastebud was particular impressed with the kakavia greek fisherman stew that came in a cup. Intense in flavours and complex in taste, it warmed the heart in a unique way that left me lost for words for the next couple of minutes.
Next, juicy Grilled Potobello Mushroom ($10), drizzled with sea salt and olive oil.
Danish hake fish ($28) enveloped in a potato crust fried to crispy brown, garnished with trout roe and citrus fruit salsa.
It was decided which dessert we wanted, to end this grand dinner.Mahalabia ($14) it was called, the yogurt crème was livened up by the pomegranate and peppermint bits. Refreshing bites of crushed peppermint provided a lovely balance to the tangy yogurt.
I don't usually eat yogurt, but here I devoured it.
No one leaves The Screening Room without visiting its star attraction for the night - La Terraza. It was Time Out’s best alfresco bar for 2008.
Take comfort from the casual yet stylish settings of rooftop bar as you take a sip of icy cool beer and soak in the spectacular view of CDB skyline. 張貼
