Located near the World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur and Sunway Putra Shopping Mall, the hotel is approximately 7km away from the Golden Triangle, the city’s main shopping and nightlife district.
The ambiance of the hotel’s latest dining establishment is cosy and classy, making it the perfect venue whether for intimate dinners or large gatherings of family and friends.
Speaking to FMT during its media launch recently, outlet manager, Rudi Ladohe, 49, said the restaurant, which can seat at least 30 people, also serves wine.
Meanwhile, Azeela Ahmad Ramli, 38, a junior sous chef at the restaurant, shared: “The menu was designed based on feedback from our guests, who wanted different varieties of meats to choose from. The meats we serve here today come from Australia and Japan.”
Tasting Notes
The beef brisket with olive oil and cilantro is a beautifully plated appetiser to kick-start the evening. The beef slices are tender and perfectly complemented by the olive oil and cilantro dressing which enhances its flavour.
The bread basket itself was tempting, served with two butter options – plain and paprika-flavoured, with the latter having a spicy ‘kick’.
Additionally, the restaurant also serves French onion soup and lobster bisque for those who enjoy a comforting bowl of soup before moving on to the main course.
On to the real stars of the show: the meats!
The Australian lamb cutlets are a good option if you want to sink your teeth into something other than beef. Grilled just right and rather addictive because of its sublime flavour and texture, and you may just find yourself reaching for a second helping before you’re even done with the first.
Meanwhile, the Wagyu sirloin is exquisite. The medium-rare steak – seasoned only with salt and pepper – is grilled to perfection. With lovely marbling, the meat is soft and flavourful, almost melting in your mouth, making each bite best savoured slowly for maximum effect.
The BBQ short ribs on the other hand, is something you can pick up with your bare hands and gorge on with wild abandon. The meat is fall-off-the-bone tender, making your dining experience super satisfying if not a tad messy – but who cares?
Meat dishes come with a selection of vegetables – grilled asparagus, sautéed baby cherry tomatoes, and mushrooms. Alternatively, you can opt for creamy mashed potatoes, fries, or potato wedges.
Sauces are aplenty here from black pepper, mixed mushroom, béarnaise and spearmint, and should you prefer a condiment that packs a little heat, there’s English or yellow mustard to choose from. According to Azeela, all their sauces are made from scratch.
Other items on the menu include Wagyu ribeye, Black Angus ribeye and sirloin as well as Angus BBQ short ribs and tomahawk.
And since all good meals should ideally end on a sweet note, indulging in a sweet dessert is an absolute must while you’re here.
The Tiramisu with fresh coulis is a delectable option. The luscious cake has a pleasant hint of coffee and is perfectly complemented by the sour-sweet pureed fruit sauce.
Then there’s the devilishly sinful Chocolate Trifle Cake that clearly aims to please. And if you simply cannot decide which to choose, well then, go ahead and have both!
