Jogoya Starhill

I never thought there would be any place as fascinating as Jogoya, it's practically like a heaven on earth. I'll get to why later on. Its on the 2nd highest floor of Starhill, which is opposite The Pavilion. This is a map I got from their website.This is what you will outside the restaurant.They even got counter somemore leh.This is the entrance to the restaurant.And as soon as you enter the restaurant you will see this.Wow.A wine rack after a flower display. High-class? I'm not sure where to start when describing the food, but they're food is steaming.Literally.As soon as you sit down, you will see the sushi stand.From fish to prawn to what-have-you, everything you can ever dream of on sushi is there. I didn't dare take too many pictures in case they thought I was stealing how they made sushi.
Another first time experience I had while there was to eat sting-ray.I know it kinda looks like fish, but its a damn lot nicer!!

Another part of the crustacean family you can find in there is this poor ''little'' guy:But you gotta be a VIP 1st though.You can also opt for clams, oysters and so on if you like seafood. Another special feature at Jogoya is their...SMOKING ROOM!! No it's not a place where they filter their smoke, it's where the customers can get away to smoke before going back to eat, complete with...glass pictures....a tv...and probably the most DIAO ashtray in all of KL. My friend accompanied me and I'm also not sure how he ended up in the picture as well.I mean, just look at the size of this thing. And its an ashtray? It's gotta be the biggest in the whole of KL as well. Try having one of these at home! Table 99. The biggest table in Jogoya. Good for dining and family reunions. Another interesting feature is their toilet.I mean, who hangs bee nests in their toilets?And not only inside, but outside as well?Ok, the flowers are still understandable, just to make the toilet smell fresher?This is how the Gent's look like, just imagine it without the guy standing there.They've even got a chocolate fountain in there. I forgot to take pictures of the marshmallows. But just look at the damn thing. It looks like plastic but its actually liquid chocolate! Imagine dipping a marshmallow into the chocolate and then biting into it...YUM!And if you feel heaty from eating too much ''hot'' food, you can try one of their coconuts in a bowl.Think of yourself being able to eat the food on the plate above, and its all damn delicious!!

Don't they mean use? (Found at the cocktail cooler)And now, enough bullshit,its time for the highlight of Jogoya:Their desserts.The cookies and biscuits. There are many choices available, among them Oatmeal...as well as chocolate chip.These 2 eerily resemble Famous Amos cookies as well, and don't taste half bad.Anyone else getting hungry by just looking at their cake and jelly display?I tried the mint.And the multicolored jelly to top it off. Both were good and as expected from a place like Jogoya.
Oh, by the way, did I mention that they have Haagen-Dazs and New Zealand Natural as part of their dessert buffet?You can also get waffles at the same counter. Besides that, you can also make your OWN chendol. They've got the ice machine, red beans, the green stringy stuff etc. You can add any amount of syrup or milk as you want as well.However, everything comes with a price, and in this case is around RM90 per head.And before you even think of smuggling food out of the restaurant, here's a little memo...

Bon appetit!
