Sid’s @ Bangsar South

We pay Sid’s a visit for lunch, to try their famous pub grub! Entering Sid’s, you can’t help but like it straight away. None of that dark and dank, pub smell present and Sid’s goes a bit lighter even. The standard pub grub and draft offerings are on hand, and a cherrywood bar extends from [...]

Lip-smacking dishes at Di Wei, Empire Hotel Subang

We traipse over to Di Wei, Empire Hotel Subang.. because we caught the scent of an Apple Cider roast duck! What’s there not to like, about a succulent, glistening, beautifully browned bird. Not much. And at Di Wei, a rather fantastic version of the bird, called the Honey Apple Cider Crispy Roast duck, was something [...]

Chef Baptiste Fournier Revisits Mezze Bistro

Chef Baptiste Fournier, of the One star Michelin restaurant, La Tour, France, Revisits Mezze Bistro.. We had to get this post out real fast, because, a rather cool and accomplished chef, is visiting Mezze Bistro KL, for just this week. That’s right folks – all good things should and must be shared, and so, from [...]

The Moon Bar @ Plaza Damansara, Damansara Heights

Star gazing… Moon gazing… and dinner at the Moon Bar. What an unusual name. It kind of conjured up images of werewolves and things that go bump in the night, coming out to play. But far from being creepy, we found that this latest gastro pub on the Plaza Damansara strip, served rather nice, unpretentious [...]

Back to Vishal @ Brickfields KL

The Chef, the Banana Leaf and Vishal.. The great thing about chinese new year holidays is the quiet streets of KL. The bad thing about chinese New Year hols, is the fact that hardly any restaurants are open, the exceptions being Indian, Malay food and or fast food. Since we had a chef from the [...]

Miki Ipoh Beansprout Chicken Rice @ Taman Midah KL

What so special about Ipoh Beansprout Chicken anyway.. ? The thing that caught our eye, was the smooth, white chicken, hanging at the front of the shop. It kind of gleamed when it caught the noon-day sun, and we knew from the growl in our bellies, that we needed to eat soon, so we quickly [...]

Curry Pan Mee @ Restoran Sei Ngan Chai, Selayang

The name of this restaurant Sei Ngan Chai, directly translates into ‘Four-eyed boy’ or the ‘Bespectacled Boy’ Restaurant. Cute name isn’t it, and hard to forget. Well the specialty at this restaurant is the fried noodles, curry mee, and pan mee. (and if you are a fan of Pan Mee, you might want to browse [...]

High Tea @ Maison Francaise , KL

Have you been to High Tea at Maison Francaise..? Sometimes you go to a restaurant in KL and have a meal, and leave, feeling more stressed out than when you arrived. They mess up your reservations, keep you waiting for ages, then you find the items you want on the menu are not available either. [...]

Ippudo Ramen @ Pavilion KL

Ippudo Ramen cames to Kuala Lumpur.. Sink or Swim? Japanese food is always such a joy to eat. I love the presentation of it which is usually neat, clean and precise. Ramen on the other hand, is the opposite. Each bowl of ramen is different – it is unruly, rebellious.. a mess. It is murky, [...]

Gobo Upstairs @ Traders Hotel KL

We pay Gobo Upstairs a visit, in search of the ultimate steak.. There are some steaks that are a pleasure to eat. They need nothing more than a little salt and pepper to bring out their beefy goodness, and adding anything more, would be a travesty. This special cut, that I am talking about, should [...]
