Food and luxury travel - Malaysia and the world
The best tiramisu in town can be found at the newly renovated Alexis Bistro & Wine Bar Ampang. It is sprinkled with caramelized nuts that are yummy enough as a dessert all on their own. The rest of the menu, although a bit pricey for the portion size, has been […]
A quiet, refined dining area at the back of the retail section of Harrod’s is the best place in KL to enjoy traditional English roast beef and Yorkshire pudding. For 50RM you get three generous slices of tender beef, plenty of gravy and veggies and a perfectly …
After having such an exciting run of finding yummy places in KL, I’ve come to another disappointing week of very average food and settings. THREE restaurants visited this week, all in FIVE star hotels, NONE make The Yum List. When you pay top prices you expec…
YUM! I only discovered this bakery last Saturday and I’ve already visited three times. This cafe-bakery has a mix of Asian style sweet, light breads with an assortment of fillings as well as some French style breads – hearty, crusty, chewy. Loved the …

Sao Nam Tengat Tong Shin is a funky little Vietnamese restaurant just off the main drag of Changkit Bukit Bintang serving food from the south. You can expect to find fresh ingredients and friendly service in this cosy establishment. Personal favourites are mango…
Neroteca is one of my favourite restaurants in KL. The food and service are consistent (which is hard to find in Malaysia). Salads, sandwiches, pasta, pizzas, cold cuts, great meat dishes – it’s all good. The wonderful thing about this place is that i…
Basil Leaf is a great place for lunch. Their set meals are real bargains including a starter, choice of main, dessert and bottomless lemongrass tea from 20 – 25RM. Their curries are particularly tasty and anything they make with coconut milk goes down very w…
Marmalade is one of my favourite lunch places in KL. Their menu features a variety of fresh salads, sandwiches and light meals. I love that you can get “wholemeal” banana pancakes for breakfast, they have skim milk if you so choose for your coffee and t…
