a month agoMemorable experience with unique local cuisine 🍽️.We came last Tuesday for a company lunch. The restaurant was very beautiful and perfect for photos 📸. Their seafood, including fish, tiger prawns, and cuttlefish, was very fresh and generously sized 🐟🦐🦑. The chicken satay was very tender and delicious. Be aware that some dishes can be quite spicy 🌶️.Overall, it was a great experience and an excellent place to come with a group 👍.

a month agoWonderful place to try out local delights. Price-wise, a bit on the higher side. The service here was top-notched. My friend and I were eating and chatting away until their closing time. They patiently waited for us to finish up our dessert and did not chase us out (of course we quickly savoured the dessert as quickly as we could).

3 months agoThis Michelin guide restaurant in Kuala Lumpur serves authentic Malay cuisines in a fine dine environment. The decor is bright and classical and the service is both attentive and great.The food came out tops in terms of presentation and taste, however I am a little skeptical on the freshness of our soft shelled crab.Otherwise, it was a great dining experience.

3 months agoThis Michelin Guide restaurant is helmed by Malaysia's pride, affectionately known as Chef Wan. It has a British colonial inspired interior, spacious and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful.Here, I was pampered with a culinary feast that I could never have finished. Each dish is thoughtfully presented, and by reputation alone, I was sure that there would be no disappointment.Enjoyed every dish there and had a great time.
