RM38 for a huge serving of fresh molluscs, with some spice to balance the creaminess 👍🏻

Coat it with the apricot ginger purée for an Asian twist! Will be back to again ☺️

Crispy dark battered lemon sole is definitely an alternative option to those who love fish and chips. Served with silky smooth and light smoked garlic mayonnaise which makes me wonder if it was a cup of chawanmushi when it arrives. Love this reinvention of the classic and nicely priced at RM34.

A new name joins the al-fresco dining strip on KLCC Park this year. Helmed by chef Jet Lo from Singapore's Ding Dong restaurant, Duddha dishes out seductively delicious Southeast Asian dishes with a modern spin. This epicurean experience is best enjoyed with an outgoing group of friends. The menu is sectioned into bites: cold, hot and big. Try the Deconstructed Tofu with Oyster Sauce (RM26) — oyster sauce is injected into firm tofu slices for a saltish bite, and the dish is immersed in refreshing daikon water. Next, get the 5 Spice Lamb Ribs (RM38). These sous vide ribs are soft and delectable when had with the zesty apricot ginger sauce (served in a tube!). While everything is good to share, make sure to also order the Green Curry Saltwater Barramundi (RM30) for a main — the fleshy fish doused in rich green curry gravy is divine with the fragrant bone marrow rice it comes with. To end, the Caramelised Pumpkin Rice Cake with Smoked Coconut Ice Cream (RM22) is a mindblowingly yummy dessert!
Avg price per person: RM60

KLCC's new name Duddha serves up an experience like no other. Every dish seems to be an opportunity to have a little fun, so come with an open mind to enjoy! Of all the extraordinaires in the menu, my favourite was the simpler Green Curry Saltwater Barramundi (RM30). Served with a brilliant bowl of rice cooked in bone marrow, this dish is a clear standout that one can order without breaking the bank. The crispy enoki on top, is a bonus. Also worth ordering is perhaps, the Caramelised Pumpkin Rice Cake with Smoked Coconut Ice Cream (RM22). The creation is a refined balance between local kuih and Korean pumpkin cake, made all the more unique by the intense smoky flavours of the ice cream. Walk all the way to the end of the outdoor dining area (left wing) to find this gem where The Apartment used to reside.
