Steak is something I take very seriously and while I have my default steakhouses to visit in town, I’m also open to new suggestions from fans and friends. When I last wrote about the dry-aged beef at my favourite steakhouse, I got quite a few messages from readers telling me…

I’ve always pegged Pampas Reserve as a happy hour joint – the drinks are reasonable and it’s located right smack in the middle of Kuala Lumpur. Suasana Bukit Ceylon to be exact. What I didn’t realise was they also serve steak, which I pleasantly discovered last week when Jien took…
My siblings and I spent a lot of my childhood along Jalan Bangkung – where my parents would take us to the park nearby to cycle and rollerblade. The Bangkung Row used to be office lots before it became an F&B hub, and has become one of my go-to places…
I like the look and feel of The Brasserie at The St. Regis Kuala Lumpur, where the high ceilings and plush furnishing oozes modern sophistication. This has been on my list of restaurants to try when my partner in crime is in town, and we did – slightly over a…
Mention Qba and I would automatically think “grill” and “Latin America”, which isn’t too far off since this open concept restaurant in The Westin Kuala Lumpur echoes what Cuban cuisine is about – vibrant flavours and vivid seasoning. It’s been more than two years since my last visit and while…

My love for burger started from my father who is an avid fan of this classic American treat – he would take my siblings and I out for burgers at fast food chains without my mother’s knowledge. Dad introduced me to the Mushroom Swiss, a delicious beef burger with mushrooms…
My father said the darndest things when my siblings and I were growing up. There was this thing about not eating watermelon or orange seeds because a tree would grow in my tummy. And then there was one where he insisted I ate my beef well done so I wouldn’t…
Chambers Bar and Grill at Hilton Kuala Lumpur serves mainly beef, aged in a special Himalayan salt-tile dry-ageing cabinet and prepared “a la minute” over lava stone, charcoal or “robatayaki” style. I’ve heard quite a bit about this new restaurant; a venue meat lovers call paradise. I was there to…
