THE curry fish head is a staple dish at The 39 Restaurant for Ramadan each year.

Hotel executive sous chef Ard Abdul Aziz said the dish had become the kitchen’s signature over the years.

He said the fish head was a must-try as it was cooked with the right mix of ingredients, which was key to making the dish different.

“We use red snappers as the flesh of which is tender and does not disintegrate easily.

Highly recommended: The fish head curry is a must-have for guests, says Chef Ard.

“The curry is cooked for two hours with ingredients blended from scratch and the recipe is from Penang,” he said.

Ard said freshly squeezed coconut milk was added to thicken the curry.

He recommended the fish head to be eaten with bread.

The curry fish head is part of the 1Malaysia Ramadan buffet that ends on Sept 6.

There are four menus on rotation for this buffet. The 1Malaysia connotation is to indicate the multi-racial aspects of the food spread.

Among items on the buffet line are Fresh Grilled Fish and Seafood, Arabian Whole Lamb with Rosemary Sauce and Mint, Fresh Oysters, Kambing Briyani Tok Hak, Deepfried Seabass Tiga Rasa, Ketam Masak Lemak Cili Api, Udang Sambal Petai and Ayam Masak Lemak Nangka.

Desserts include Pengat Pisang and varieties of Bubur, which Ard said were not overly sweet and would suit all taste buds.

Meat of the bones: Chef Ard cutting a whole lamb which is one of the main highlights for the buffet.

“We also serve eight types of soup,” he said.

Guests have the option to dine indoor or outdoors. An in-house band ‘Amethyst’ will be performing to entertain guests as they dine.

The buffet is priced at RM99++ (adult) and RM69++ for children aged below 12.

Alternatively, guests can also dine at the PNB Darby Cafe located on the first floor.

Among the featured items in the cafe are Sup Rusa, Ayam Masak Merah Bermadu, Asparagus Belacan, Kambing Marsala, Chee Cheong Fun and a fusion of Malay-Western dishes like Serunding Lasagna and Seafood Macaroni.

This buffet line is priced at RM65++ and RM35++ for adults and children respectively.

The hotel is also donating RM1 from each Ramadan buffet purchased to a selected charity home.
