Al Halabi

Al Halabi

The shop was a real pain in the ass. There are two of them, one in the Pavilion and one across the street in the Marriott. Google almost always shows the one in the Marriott, so I had a bit of trouble finding it. Now for the food. I ordered the Tajin lamb with bread … Read more

Pizza Mansion Jalan Mesui

Pizza Mansion Jalan Mesui

Okay, no visit is complete without trying a pizza. The Mansion was my choice (the pictures and reviews on Google led me to this choice). What can I say?

Unlike in Bangkok, they have truffle xiaolongbao here. The selection of starters is very limited, however (just the Oriental … Read more

Restoran Yenn

Gravy Baby Changkat

Gravy Baby Changkat

The place doesn’t look that big from the outside, but it goes further back and there’s a second floor. It wasn’t busy that early. There’s a wide selection … Read more

Bari Uma Ramen

Bari Uma Ramen

So, something simple to eat again: ramen (always works). Bari-Uma is also in the Pavilion, in the side wing on the 7th floor. It’s not that easy to find if you only know that it’s on the 7th floor. On the higher floors, it’s not so easy to move between the wings of the building. … Read more
