Spring Chamber : The X'mas Fine Dining

Spring Chamber a.k.a The Sun is located at the long Macalister Road. When you move along the road, look out for the SUN YAT-SEN CENTRE. The restaurant is hiding behind. It is a fine dining place for couples, friends and family. Although Sun Yat-Sen Centre will lead your mind to Chinese cuisine, The Sun provides Western food. You will never find any Chinese dishes here.


Spring Chamber is currently serving set lunch at RM 28 nett. Comparing to other restaurants or hotels, this is an affordable price where hungry stomach will be filled. The set lunch includes an appetizer (Soup or Salad), main course (6 varieties), dessert (Cheese or Chocolate Cake) and drink. It is certainly more than enough.

Look at the menu, 5% of revenue will be contributed to Sun Yat-Sen Centre? It means you are actually helping to support the centre by dining here. Penang needs this kind of fund and it is pretty amazing!
The Sun is segmented into 3 sections namely Spring, Autumn and Summer. Too bad they do not have Winter.

Spring Chamber is the fine dining restaurant, where I was having my lunch there. Spring Chamber has quite a peaceful environment which is essential for fine dining.

Autumn Lounge is some kind of high-tea section. The Lounge looks quite elegant.

Summer Court is for chit-chat session. Liquors and some snacks will be serving here too. There is no air-cond here because it is SUMMER!
A welcome drink will be served to each customer upon arrival. It is a small portion of Sparkling juice. The texture was rich.

While having the meal, the customer will be served either cold or hot drinking water, up to your choice. Don't worry if the water is not enough, because the waiter will keep refilling for you.

Remember the choices of drinks are at the bottom last of the menu? It is because those drinks will come with the desserts. I like the Ice Peach Tea, strong smell of peach. The Lemon Ice Tea was not bad, slightly different from others which suit my tongue.

The appetizer was Pumpkin Soup. Love the Pumpkin Soup to the max! I wonder how many pumpkins were they using for the soup. From the texture I can tell that A LOT of pumpkins!

A large portion of Pan Seared Salmon. Those with small stomach cannot really finish the whole plate. It was a little oily but the Salmon was fresh.

Grilled Lamb loin rosemary sauce. I think it was 70% cooked. Yet it was quite chewy. Three big lamb pieces were too many! The sauce was pretty good when it came with the lamb.

For the desserts, Chocolate Opera Cake and Baked Cheese Cake. Overall, they were sweet, but not too sweet.
Compliment to the waiters. They kept noticing at the customers if the drinking water finish and they will keep refilling for you. Meanwhile, a waiter will go round the restaurant and ask for feedback from the customers. They were patient and be ready anytime for the customers.

Before stepping into the toilet, I found out these. The toilet signs for male and female. I will never find such opera characters in other places.

Will i recommend The Sun to you? Yes, sure! Consider Spring Chamber if you need a candle light fine dining for Christmas or New Year dinner.

Thank you very much to the FoodMice and The Sun for such a cosy fine dining.
