Festive Roast Delivery KL 2020
Monica Tindall
From December 1st to 29th, Troika Sky Dining is adding roast delivery to their already comprehensive range of culinary festive offerings. Customers can choose a whole roast turkey (RM 580, 4.5kg), a leg of lamb (RM580 3.5kg) or corn-fed chicken (RM350, 2.2kg), and receive all the sauces, sides and desserts to go with. Additionally, an extensive list of wine is available making it a one-stop-shop for your year-end celebrations.
Festive Roast Delivery KL 2020
We have been fortunate to try several festive roast delivery services in KL this 2020. So far, we’ve indulged in chicken, pork and turkey roasts and so choose the lamb leg from Troika this round, even though their turkey and chicken sounds as equally delicious.
The lamb leg is a handsome mound of meat with aromas that entice the nose before the eye even appreciates it. It’s marinated in garlic and rosemary and roasted until the exterior is caramelized and the middle is juicy and tender.
While the meat is important, I find the sauces that go with roasts just as consequential. Troika’s lamb jus and cranberry sauce are expertly prepared and clearly made from scratch. We’ll be keeping the leftovers to spice up our lunches for the rest of the week.
Christmas Sides
For many, the roast is the star attraction. I am a veggie-loving lass though so place high value on ensuring the sides are given as equal attention. This year’s festive roast delivery from Troika comes with herbed roasted potatoes, roasted carrots, miso-honey-glazed parsnip, and garlic Brussels sprouts. These are no run-of-the-mill recipes but obviously prepared by a chef with a discerning palate.
Desserts
While I personally no longer have a sweet tooth, I might know a few people who would head straight to dessert before anything savoury – and it’s the holidays, so why not? Troika KL’s festive roast delivery 2020 ensures that all sugar cravings are satisfied with not one, not two, but three puds. Their Christmas fruit cake is superbly moist and packed with fruit. My late grandpa would be delighted to put a slice of aged, crumbly cheddar on that. The yule log is rich in its layers of sponge, cream and ganache, and a handful of gingerbread men (or are they reindeer?) add some festive fun.
Wine
Making Troika Sky Dining a one-stop-shop, you can also order any number of delicious wines, personally selected and imported by the owners (more on that to come in another story shortly). Bruno Rocco Trifole Dolcetto d’Alba 2018 makes an excellent match to our lamb. Grown in Piedmont, Italy, on vines that are over 50 years old, the wine is deep, almost purple-red-black in colour. The nose is fragrant with dark berries, perhaps a vegetal note, some earth and some spice. It’s light in body with smooth tannins and plenty of acidity making a fine food mate.
Festive roast orders require four days advance notice and both self-pick-up and delivery can be arranged. Requests can be made online or via email at frontdesk@troikaskydining.com. Check out more of Troika Sky Dining’s festive offerings below.
