The Mix Holiday Inn Glenmarie Valentine's Day Set

The Mix is this rather exclusive restaurant tucked away in the vicinity of Holiday Inn Glenmarie which serves good food amidst a bar like atmosphere with a live band every night to entertain its patrons.  I was privileged to be invited to try out their Valentine's Set Menu ahead of Valentine's day this coming 14th February.

The Bar-like ambiance and environment

Arriving just in time for the Valentine's Day Set to be served, I was rather impressed with the laid back interior of The Mix, where everything looks like it was set in place just for us.  Our tables were specially set up with red covers, roses and candles to bring out the romance.  It was rather romantic the way everything was prepared, saving the guy some time to impress the lady this coming Valentine's Day.

The night kicked off with the Moroccon Grilled Chicken Salad, where we had this Grilled Chicken wrapped into a ball to be taken with some green salad.  I rather liked the chicken, but am not a vegetable person. Consisting of tomato, celery, cucumber, corriander apricot and mint, the Salad did go well with the chicken though.

Well, the salad was just the appetizer which was followed by a serving each of this wonderful hot Wild Mushroom Soup with herbs cream and garlic bread.  I love it when my mushroom soups are served piping hot, and here even the plate that it came with was warmed up.

Taking a quick glance at the Valentine's Day Menu at The Mix, I appreciated the fact that for the main course, we had a choice of either seafood or meat. Janice always prefers seafood while I cannot get enough of poultries and meat hence the menu was perfectly presented to cater for both our taste buds.

Now the Oven Baked Cajun Chicken Roulade and New Zealand Rack of Lamb came looking really pretty, and it tasted really good as well.  I did not have to choose between either lamb or chicken because I got both in this dish.  Each time I get lamb dishes, I'm always wary of poorly cooked lamb meat which have this really strong smell and taste.  Here at The Mix, the lamb was cooked just nice with the meat falling off the bone rather easily.

No prizes for guessing if the Atlantic Grilled Salmon and Baked Black Cod dish was ordered by Janice or me. The dish came with sauteed spinach asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes and had a unique fusion of salmon placed on top of the cod. I did try a bit, and was glad to find the fishy smell not too strong. According to Janice, the cod and salmon were fresh hence the taste and firm texture.

Desserts were served amidst beautiful music belted out by The Mix's in-house band Zynchro. The Fudge Brownie Melt which came along with their Valentine's Day Set was a tad too small for my liking. Something as good as this made me want more, and the portion was definately not enough. Check out the band Zynchro that entertained us throughout the night with beautifully sung music below.

It was a good night indeed, and I can imagine during the actual Valentine's Day, this Valentine's set offered by The Mix Holiday Inn Glenmarie should appeal to many couples.  At such a posh restaurant, with the price tag of RM90++ per person,  The Mix promises sweet memories to last till the next Valentine's Day next year.
