2 May 2011: I had a lunch gathering with friends at The Library, Mid Valley Megamall. The Library is mainly a bar/bistro in the evening and a restaurant during day time. We decided to have our gathering here because there's a Buy 1 Free 1 Lunch Promotion. This promotion allow us to buy 1 item on the menu and free 1 item at same or lower price. Dessert is not included in the promotion.

We did not expect much from the food here because The Library is a place for drinking, not for eating. Here are what we had...

• Grilled Creole Fish (RM29.90++) -> Tilapia fish fillet marinated with Cajun spices, served with fries & salad bouquet. I love the sauce, very tasty and appetizing. The fish is not bad, a bit too salty but still within acceptable range. Worth a try if the lunch promotion is still on, else this is a bit pricey. Fyi, this is chef recommendation.
  
• Spaghetti Carbonara (RM27.90++) -> Aldante pasta, cooked with smoked turkey ham and sauteed button mushrooms, in thick creamy sauce. This is our favourite dish here. Taste just right. Not too plain, not too cheesy. A lot better than expected. Recommended.
  
• Pasta Funghi Con Olio (RM19.90++) -> Slightly spicy but overall taste a bit too plain. Edible but not recommended, although this is chef recommendation dish.
  
• Warm Peach and Banana Crumble (RM19++) -> Oatmeal, banana and peach served warm with cream and vanilla ice-cream. I'm not a peach and banana lover so I did not try this. Quoted from a friend "too hard". She demonstrated on how hard is it and I can conclude that it's unreasonably too hard to be eaten.

Generally, the food here is much better than expected. Worth a try if the Buy 1 Free 1 Lunch Promotion is still on.
