East Asian restobar Shhhbuuuhleee on the top floor of REXKL, is all about small sharing plates, done by the same guys who started Chocha in Petaling Street, KL. After hearing so much about Chef Mui Kai Quan’s prowess in the kitchen, I finally managed to try his food.
The food menu is neither expansive nor lacking when it comes to variety. Upon reflection, I personally feel that it’s focused with a tight, well-thought flow to it. The drinks menu, however, is more substantial with choices ranging from classic Suntory Kakubin highballs and Roku gin and tonics to finer sake and wine bottles. At Shhhbuuuleee, food should be enjoyed with a drink.
The other scene-stealer was Red Glutinous Rice with Sakura Shrimp & Salt-Cured Fish Roe (RM24). We relished every bite of the nutty, slightly sticky home-grown red glutinous rice which has absorbed the rich savouriness of both the shrimps and fish roe.
