Come home to Pelita Ramadan at GBW


Johor towns and villages like Sri Gading, Tanjung Labuh, Parit Raja, Parit Sulong Pontian, Pekan Nenas, and Rengit are familiar names and home to traditional recipes of local dishes prepared for the breaking-of-fast at GBW Hotel.


Pelita Ramadan Dinner Buffet is served at
D'Meldrum Cafe in GBW Hotel Johor Baru

Now diners who are homesick for homecooked specialties can satisfy their cravings with the Pelita Ramadan Dinner Buffet, in a menu inspired by these recipes and served at D’Meldrum Café this Ramadan.


Aware that travel may be limited during this season, Chef Karim and his culinary team are confident that these familiar dishes will not only tantalize their tastebuds but also give diners that much longed-for comfort and taste of home.


The team have put their heads together and drawn on their collective experience to decide on the most popular recipes to create a menu of appetizers, main course dishes to savour with steamed rice, live-cooking stations as well desserts, and a choice of refreshing drinks.


Disposable gloves are provided

By serving this menu consistently throughout the Ramadan month, diners who enjoyed their breaking-of-fast meal at D’Meldrum are welcome to return again and again with friends and family to savour these comforting flavours to their satisfaction.


After all, there are more than 100 dishes in this generous spread to enjoy on every return visit for the breaking-of-fast meal here throughout the month.


For a start, the café observes the Standard Operating Procedures and provides disposable gloves for diners to wear while they handle common serving spoons and tongs in the buffet.


In the Appetizer section the buffet begins with a choice of preserved dates and a range of mixed, mouth-watering salads like types of local Kerabu made with pineapple, radish and mango.


Choices of pickles and mixed
local salads to choose from

Diners may also create their own salads from ingredients provided for Rojak Petis, Gado-Gado and Pasembur.


There are also choices of local crisps like keropok and kerepek as well as pickled fruits to whet the appetite for more food from the hot buffet.


The daily menu served in the hot buffet is made up of dishes prepared with chicken, squid, cockles, fish, eggs, and oxtail, as well as vegetables like sweet potato leaves, petai beans and bamboo shoots, and fruits like pineapple.


Familiar dishes in the hot buffet are fondly recognised by their place of origin as in Ayam Rendang Sri Gading and Oxtail Assam Tanjung Labuh.


The hot buffet is being replenished

The list continues with Kambing Briyani Parit Raja, Sotong Sambal Petai Sri Gading, Kerang Sambal Berserai Pontian, Ikan Bawal Percik Johor, Telur Mutiara Rini, Sayur Lemak Pucuk Paku Keledek Pekan Nenas, Sayur Lemak Nenas Ikan Masin Rengit, Daging Salai Lemak Rebung, Udang Masam Manis Nenas, and Sayur Goreng Jawa.


As diners help themselves to the dishes from the hot buffet, the culinary staff are keeping a close watch to ensure that dishes are swiftly replenished and ready to serve diners who are returning to the buffet for more.


Freshly grilled skewers of Satay Wak Mus

In the outdoor section, live-cooking stations are designed as Stalls to serve Kambing Golek Tanjung Puteri or roasted lamb, Nasi Briyani Kambus Parit Sulong, Aneka Mee Nusantara for a choice of noodles like Laksa Johor and Mee Rebus, and GBW Aneka Sup – a rich beefy soup filled with a choice of cut meat, carrots and potatoes.


Other stalls serve Roti John, Murtabak, and Roti Jala or net bread to savour with the gravies while Goreng-Goreng serves deep-fried items like fried banana, fried sweet potato and cha-kway Meldrum topped with Chocolate Rice and Cheese shavings.


A whole roasted lamb

Do not miss Satay Wak Mus, freshly grilled skewers of marinated beef and chicken and savour it, drenched in a rich, spicy peanut sauce. This – I must declare – is of the better satays I have tasted in a long, long time…

 

The eye-catching, colourful array of cakes, tarts, rolls and pastries are designed to tempt while an assortment of local kuih and sweet broths vie for equal attention.


To end the meal sweetly, there is a choice from Pulut Serawa Durian, Bubur Jagung, Bubur Pulut Hitam, Bubur Cha Cha to shaved ice ABC-Cendol Durian, a choice of ice-cream flavours and fresh cut fruits, to choose from.
