Founded in 2020, this theatre-like dining room with neat designs faces an open kitchen where Chef Low and his energetic team perform. The set menu is mostly informed by European cuisine, using local ingredients like gula apong and engkabang. Creatively refashioned with interesting surprises, the menu changes with the seasons and goes beyond the realms of typical Malaysian cooking. The signature green salad with bagna cauda is packed with flavour.
