These outlets are specially hand-picked by the management of Taste Enclave who have taken great measures to select only the finest food ambassadors to be part of this food atrium. Located on the 2nd level of Avenue K, Taste Enclave occupies 17,500 sq ft and a seating capacity for 550 diners. Stepping into the … [Read more...]
Tujo Bar-sserie & Grill @ Ascott Kuala Lumpur
You really can’t miss Tujo along Jalan Pinang, Kuala Lumpur. I mean, how can you ever miss this playground, with bright cheerful flowers planted firmly on the ground, all colourfully shouting “TUJO” from their centres? Be warned though: you can’t pick these blooms and plonk them into a vase! The Playground The latest brainchild from the good people of SOUL Society Group, Tujo Bar-sserie & Grill revolves around the concept of “A Playground”.

Melur & Thyme, Suria KLCC
“A memorable mix of East and West, in an arty sidewalk café space”. That, in a nutshell, describes Melur & Thyme perfectly. Oh, may I also add that this arty sidewalk café is also very stylish and chic looking, which of course, is requisite in an upmarket mall like Suria KLCC. Its dark wooden panelled entrance with intricate floral-like lattice work flanks its logo: a bunch of herbal leaves, from what I gather. Stepping inside, one wall showcases a reflection of the restaurant’s … [Read more...]
PLOY Specials 2013
We reviewed Ploy way back in August 2011, soon after it opened. As a restaurant that prides itself in reinventing modern Japanese and Thai cuisines, it has tantalized many a taste bud since then. Almost two years since it established its niche in Damansara Heights, its ultra-cool retro-chic interior still retains its charm while the menu has been enhanced with some new items to cater to the ever-changing palettes of its patrons. The current menu has seen some new additional offerings since … [Read more...]
KomPassion Thai Fusion Food, Damansara Kim, Petaling Jaya
KomPassion is the latest Thai baby in the quiet suburb of Damansara Kim and has been quite the talk of the town lately. We bumped into the owners, Desmond Wong and Tan Huat Jin (who are brothers-in-law) when we dined in KomPassion recently. Desmond and Tan have teamed up with Chef Nikom Uatthong to set up this restaurant. We’ve heard how KomPassion has been touted as being an offshoot from another well-known Thai restaurant chain but according to Desmond and Tan, the only connection to that … [Read more...]
Renoma Cafe Gallery @ Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur
Is it a gallery? Is it a café? Is it a fashion lifestyle store? Those are usually the questions people ask when they step into Renoma Café Gallery – that spanking new establishment with the bright red Renoma sign along Jalan Bukit Bintang, diagonally across the Prince Court Medical Centre. Actually, the answer is: All of the above! Many years ago, I got acquainted with the brand “Renoma” through its popularity in ready-to-wear fashion clothings, accessories and of course, the famed … [Read more...]
Sanook Bistro & Sports Bar’s New Menu
Tucked away in the heart of Kelana Jaya is this sprawling laidback place called Sanook Bistro & Sportz Bar overlooking the lake. When you are in Sanook, you totally leave behind the hustle bustle and horrific traffic fumes of the LDP and you can almost feel the stress eroding from your soul as you relax and gaze at the splendid lake view and the twinkling shimmers dancing on the water. I was told “sanook” means “fun” in Thai and I guess that is exactly what the owners intended this place to … [Read more...]
Delicious Cafes – Brand New Dishes!
From 70 -> 45 -> 25. Now, if you are wondering what those numbers are all about, well, let me explain. Remember Chef Steve Allen? (just to recall, read about him here). Steve Allen, who is the E&O Group Creative Chef, together with Chef Kasdi Dahari, the E&O Group Executive Chef went through months of culinary R&D and many hot hours in the Delicious kitchens to come up with acceptable dishes for the new menu. Both chefs spent a lot of time developing the new offerings, … [Read more...]
PLOY – Work@Clearwater, Damansara Heights, Kuala Lumpur
I like this line: Be dazzled by Ploy. No, I don't mean "ploy" as in "a calculated action to frustrate an opponent"... but rather "Ploy" as in "gems" in the Thai language. Yes, all that are glittery and dazzling are represented in Ploy... from the glitzy shimmering cushions to the gem-cut facet motif on its signage and wall covering. All these blend to give a cool modern almost-simplistic touch to the interior decor which on first impression, spells "hip" and even "chic". Take a seat in … [Read more...]
