Thai food seems to be all the craze in Klang Valley all the sudden, with a few new additions sprouting up everywhere. Of these, Hwan by Chakri (obviously run by the same Chakri Palace people) stands out with a slightly different concept. The owner created this concept after her visit to Thailand. There she met…

Nook’s MIGF 2014 Menu
It’s always a pleasure receiving invitations from Aloft Kuala Lumpur be it a review session, or music event. You might have notice that I am there quite often (several times a month, in fact) and that is because I always enjoyed their great hospitality. A makan session at Nook, especially, is something I won’t miss….
Sunday Curry Tiffin Lunch, Colonial Cafe @ Hotel Majestic
I’ve long heard about the Colonial Cafe at the beautiful Hotel Majestic but yet to pay a visit until couple of Sundays ago when we were invited to dine and enjoy their Sunday Curry Tiffin Lunch. Sunday Tiffin is basically synonymous with over indulging of curries, vegetables and rice. This tradition is believed to begun…
Cape Mentelle Wine Pairing Degustation Lunch, Tanzini.
I usually have a rule of not drinking before the sunset. But that rule was well and truly broken couple of weeks ago at a very special wine pairing degustation lunch hosted by Cape Mentelle. I’ve always been fond of wines of Margaret River, so this wasn’t something I would want to miss. So despite…
Estilo Spanish Tapas Bar & Charcoal Grill, Publika
Publika in Solaris Dutamas is blessed with a wide variety of eating spots and one of my favourite would have to be Estilo, which specialises in Spanish Tapas and doubles as a great drinking spot with their extensive menu of sangrias and wines. It’s part of The Social group which also runs El Meson. Interestingly…
Ante Kitchen & Bar Brunch Menu
The dining scene in KL has changed so much over the 3 years I’ve been here. I remember when I first arrived I was complaining about the lack of decent brunch spots, but over the past year or so the concept of “all-day-breakfast” has been lovingly embraced by the F&B industry and consumers. Truly, there’s…
Madisons, Jalan Bangkung: New Menu
Madisons is the place for me if I ever miss Melbourne, or Mod Oz cuisine in general (read about my rather detailed review here). Situated at Jalan Bangkung, it has a relaxed vibe specially during the weekends so we enjoy dropping in for long leisurely lunches. Chef Kelly Delaney has kindly invited us couple of…
HTC Desire 816 Full Review
When it comes to phones, I have to say I’m not the kind who upgrade every few months and in fact as long as it’s still functioning, I would use it until it dies proper. Of course, there are still a few criteria I would look for to suit my lifestyle, and I will cover…
Balik Kampung Buffet at Grand Hyatt KL
Just when I thought I was done with the buffets, I received another invitation from Grand Hyatt KL to sample their Balik Kampung Buffet. Situated right in the heart of KL, Grand Hyatt is a lovely hotel blessed with superb view of the twin towers from the bar (which we got to check out after…
Mediteca, Fraser Place: New Menu
There are only a few Italian/Mediterranean restaurants that I would happily return to, and Mediteca is one of them. The last time I was there, I only got to sample a small fraction of their menu, so I was elated to receive an invitation to enjoy their new menu items. It’s always heartening to see…
