Reasons to visit Pier 12 Seafood Tavern: attractive nautical-themed setting; high-quality seafood skillfully prepared; wonderfully attentive staff; great view of the KL Tower; don’t leave without trying the clams, coriander salad and halibut.
[Pork-free] Canvassis one of the best new eateries we’ve tried in 2020 - offfering Nordic-inspired cuisine with a focus on “sustainable hedonism”.
Reasons to visit Canvass KL: sustainable hedonism, enlightened hospitality, biodiversity, fermentation, delicious and affordable food and cocktails, lovely venue.
Pizza is surely a favourite on the menu and I sampled a slice. It was authentic, thin crust with fresh topping sauce.
Reasons to visit Manja KL: attractive setting; prettily plated recipes; unique flavour combinations and creatively composed recipes.
Ten Cha Fish with Lobster Butter Soba (market price) – grilled seasonal catch in ginger palm marination, with ten cha green tea glaze. By the side is a bundle of organic soba cooked in house-made lobster butter with juicy morsels of river lobster meat, topped with sturgeon caviar!
Overall, the food is pretty good and well presented.. It is also pretty tasty and I really love the ambience of the place….
Reasons to visit Luce Osteria: you can’t go wrong ordering just about anything here but the three dishes that will last in happy dreams for weeks to come are the swordfish – Filetto Di Pesce Spada, gnocchi – Chicche Della Nonna Alla Sorrentina and risotto – Risotto ai Funghi Porcini. One of the few Italian restaurants in KL to serve pork. Pleasant setting with multiple dining areas. Please try the chef’s Zabaione – this will make him very happy and honour his nonna in the process.
