Tanner's Wine Bar & Bistro

Had an early dinner at Tanner's which is located at Kenny Hills (Bukit Tungku) last Sunday. The Chairman of Tatler (Malaysia) recommended this place to a friend of mine and gave a pretty high rating for it.

The place is situated away from the hustle and bustle of the city, surrounded by an old English countryside setting. If not for the introduction to this place, one would not be able to find this pretty secluded eatery easily.

Outside, the bistro is decorated with beer barrel tabletop

Entering the bistro, one can feel the warmth and cosiness of the place.

Tanner's predominantly serves English food and an extensive selection of wine and bottled beer sourced from various countries.

They serve set meals on most days. The one we ordered came with mushroom soup, chicken salad, Yorkshires pudding/roast lamb and sticky chocolate as desert.

Starter - mushroom soup

Chicken Salad

Yorkshire Pudding, this was a bit of a disappointment as I was expecting the batter to be in the form of a bowl. That was how i had them during my days living in Yorkshire and in some ways I was hoping to see the same presentation.

For those that is not familiar with Yorkshire pudding, its a dish made from batter. Its mostly served with roast beef (the one I ordered), chicken or on its own.

Roast Lamb (this was actually much better then the beef)

Sticky Chocolate (chocolate pudding with a scoop of chocolate ice cream)

All in all, Tanners is a nice cozy place for some decent English cuisine but i think its too highly rated. The food is good but not fantastic as what it was proclaimed to be. Nevertheless its a nice secluded place for a quiet romantic dinner or a private party (its a small place that can only fit roughly 50-100 people). Its also pretty reasonable with set meals costing about RM50 excluding tax.

If you are really into English cuisine then you may one to give this place a try. If not I guess there may be other better place around.
