Established in 1921, Coliseum Café is still reputed today as
one of the best places to go to for Western food with a different touch. The
ambience is nothing great – with ceiling boards that have definitely stood the
test of time and waiters who look like they come from a different era, I walked
in without much expectation.
The menu are all nicely placed on the table and we browsed
through the menu. Indeed we were spoilt for choice as they do not only serve
Western food, but also a variety of Asian dishes as well as sandwiches.
Strangely enough the three of us settled for the sizzling
plate albeit of different kinds of meat and we were given a bib each to wear,
which we all did with a wink and a smile.
Before our sizzling steak arrived, we were given a bowl of
salad consisting of cucumbers, tomatoes and some lettuce along with thousand
island dressing.
This is the sizzling fillet steak (RM43.90). I asked for it
to be well done and what I got was simply marvellous. As I am not a fan of
medium or rare steak, I found it to be just right – not too dried and tough nor
too raw. The generous amount of gravy given was a plus and I loved every bite
of the aromatic, appealing steak.
This is sizzling spring chicken turkey ham (RM35.90). An entire
spring chicken with a whole tomato is what you get – with the bowl of salad
consumed earlier, of course. The chicken was tender and flavourful.
Sizzling New Zealand lamb chop (RM42.90) – 3 pieces of lamb
chop – well, it tasted alright but had bits of fat in it.
