My husband and I went to this restaurant with high hopes, as the menu looked really nice and we were willing to pay a bit more for what we expected to be good food and service rather than risk it on our last of only 2 nights in KL.We left very disappointed.I am vegetarian, I use that word loosely as I have been recently eating seafood as its been impossible to eat vegetarian in certain parts of Asia. We asked if there was anything on the menu without chicken/beef and the waiter looked so uninterested it was shocking. He said no except for pointing to one dish that was chinese veggies/tofu and seemed very much in a rush even though the restaurant was half empty. He looked so annoyed that I told him to come back. After getting the attention of two other waitresses they BOTH pointed to other waiters motioning for me to ask them instead. I finally got one and ordered the 1 dish without chicken on a 5 page menu. Even dishes that seemingly did not have meat in them apparently did according to the second waiter as well. So after rushing through our order he did not ask if I wanted rice and it came as a bowl of veggies/tofu/sauce only. I figured that might happen so even went up and asked for extra rice about 5 minutes after initially ordering. Adding the rice to our meal took about 5 minutes of confusion and irritated servers trying to figure out how to do it and not speaking to me and me apologizing. The rice came about 10 minutes after my meal, the man sitting beside our table even asked the manager for me where my rice was! I was appalled when he shrugged and walked away!!! I have never had such terrible service in my life. It was almost like the staff were doing it on purpose, so bizarre. There is a sign on the door that says what languages they prefer and English is not on there. After spending a week in India and traveling around Asia this is the first time I have felt like people were mad we spoke English even though even non-westerners were speaking and ordering in English! KL is incredibly 'americanised' from what I can tell after living in Australia for the past 6 years (more so in a lot of ways than Sydney) so I was very surprised that it felt like such a problem. Lonnnng story short, find somewhere else to eat. Little Panang cafe (kafe) on the same level was ten times better and cheaper, they took the 30 seconds to help me order, the food was good/cheap and they even smiled sometimes. Go there instead.
