城市风景酒店

The two-storey restaurant doubles as a museum to display the owner’s antique collection. The father-and-daughter team serves authentic Nyonya home-style dishes, many of which are meant to be shared. Try their pie tee, or crispy pastry cups filled with finely diced vegetables, fried onions and shrimps dressed in a homemade chilli sauce. With unlimited free refills, pandan lemongrass tea is the perfect drink to quench the heat of the food.

A Fukuoka native, the chef worked in Europe for years before opening this place – an oasis set in lush greenery outside the city centre. At dinner, the tasting menus include five or nine courses, meticulously crafted with classic French techniques and using local ingredients. With an array of harmonious textures, the corn dish is inspired by the chef's visit to Cameron Highlands, encapsulating his culinary vision and childhood memories.

Perched atop a skyscraper, the restaurant affords panoramic vistas of KL's skyline. Chef Sidney Schutte hails from the southern shores of the Netherlands. His menu is a delectable amalgam of French techniques, Nordic sensibility and Asian twists; seafood and vegetables are his strong suits. His dessert is the final bow, imparting depth and sweetness. With a menu spanning 3 hours, it's the perfect setup for a date.

This simple shop has been selling authentic Hakkanese food in an unremarkable neighbourhood for over 20 years. The must-try Hor Poh lui cha is a sheeny green soup served with steamed rice. Made with ground sesame seeds, peanuts and mint leaves, the soup is nutty and aromatic. The Hor Poh dumpling with dried tofu, garlic and pickles enrobed in a thin skin is also popular. With a range of tasty offerings at bargain prices, this place is always busy.

From the blue façade and a terrace reminiscent of pavement cafes, to the oversized painting celebrating joie de vivre, the restaurant formerly known as 2OX transports diners to a Parisian bistro with its relaxed, convivial vibe. Helmed by Chef Dominic, the kitchen creates modern, sophisticated dishes that are deeply rooted in the French traditions. Most ingredients are imported from Europe; the artisanal cheeses are especially worth trying.

The restaurant has a rustic edge with vintage canteen-style furniture that evokes waves of nostalgia across a dimly lit venue. Limapulo (which means fifty in Malay), is managed by a team of Malaysian chefs. It’s best to choose plates for sharing and be sure to order the popular Nyonya laksa – a standout dish indeed. The signature sate has a special sauce homemade from star fruits and pineapple. Some menu items are only available on certain days.
