Senja Restaurant, The Saujana Hotel & Resort
 |
| Same as Shangri-La Hotel, I reckon that The Saujana Hotel & Resort is another hotel has gathered all the finest restaurants in one hotel which are Kogetsu Japanese Restaurant, The Restaurant and now Senja Restaurant. An interesting thing about Senja Restaurant is not a Malay restaurant but an Italian restaurant instead. Who would have think of that? |
 |
| They are only opened for dinner with a spectacular man made lake view. It is a nice and cosy restaurant which eventually will make you feel relax and chill. However, this side is the smoking session unless you do not mind smoking smell bothering you. |
 |
| Inside will be the non-smoking zone which is pretty cozy too but you are not able to see the lake view easily. |
 |
| But...you got to see this awesome live band started to perform from 8.00pm onwards. They sing a very beautiful songs which is really great to have for your dining experience with your partner. |
 |
| A truly genuine Italian restaurant will always use their Italian wood fire style to bake their pizza. So ordering a pizza is a must in here. You are not consider dining in an Italian restaurant if you do not have at least one pizza on your table. |
 |
| Complimentary bread which warm it out from their fire wood oven. Awesomely delicious. |

| Pizza Salmone @RM47.00++ |
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 2/5
Overall: 3/5 - Mixed of smoked salmon and raw salmon which just nice to pleasure a salmon fan like me. The salmon is sweet, fresh and soft which mixed with the thin crust pizza...one word for it...PERFECT. This perfect combination you will truly surprised yourself for able to eat more pieces than you usually do. However, the price is slightly higher if you compare to other restaurants but in my opinion for a restaurant like this, it is worthwhile.

| Spaghetti Carbonara with Beef Bacon @RM45.00++ |
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 1/5
Overall: 3/5 - Mixed them all together with the poached egg before you eat. You will find it very surprise for those carbonara lovers which is you will not see the creamy gravy sauce flooded half of this plates. I am surprised too but what is even more surprised me is actually the taste is still there even without the gravy. You do not feel queasy at all with the fragrance that is roaming inside your mouth. Truly different experience. However, I do find this dish a little overpriced because it is just a simple bacon, egg and spaghetti.
 |
| Tiramisu @RM30.00++ |
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 1/5
Overall: 3/5 - You cannot go wrong to have Italian most famous dessert, Tiramisu in an Italian restaurant. Very genuinely done. Please take not that you need to tell the waiter that you want alcohol in your Tiramisu because as default there is no alcohol in it. A genuine Tiramisu will always have Kahlua in it and that is how I like my Tiramisu done.
 |
| Panna Cotta @RM25.00++ |
Outlook: 5/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 2/5
Overall: 3/5 - It is an amazing moment begins when you take a scoop and leave into your mouth. The panna cotta melts slowly bringing together the sweetness and milk taste wrap around your tongue. It smooths down your throat when you swallow it and leave another momento in your throat with the egg fragrance which sending a signal to your brain to go for the second scoop. Actually all the above happened in just 2 seconds. LOL
 |
| Overall, this is another great fine dining Italian restaurant which should not be missed. The price is a little pricey but other than that is remarkable. I will definitely be back because they are plenty more delicious looking dishes that I wish to try. |
