Fine Dining/Michelin Star

Nouri is off to a good start in 2018 with a collaboration between chefs Ivan Brehm and Darren Teoh from Dewakan in KL. We had the 5-course lunch, and every dish was beautiful, inventive and delicious.

The Snapper Umai (a ceviche-like dish native to Serawak) created by chef Darren Teoh was a delight - tangy and spicy, complemented by the sweetness of the pomelo.

I’ll definitely be back to try Nouri’s teishoku-style lunches and omakase menu.

My top criticisms of many fine dining restaurants: too gimmicky, inconsistencies between courses, or just not that special to justify the price tag. Many complain about the small portions but if the food is of high quality, I’m fine with this.

Meta debunks these preconceptions about fine dining. Every course we had in the Winter Dinner Menu was excellent, with the highest quality ingredients, wonderful textures and delicate yet impactful flavours.

This was our 4th course, the perfectly cooked wagyu beef tenderloin with a smooth chestnut purée, peas and asparagus.

Highly recommended for those who don’t mind splurging on meals from time to time, but only when it’s really worth it. You won’t be disappointed :)

5 courses: $108
7 courses: $148
Comes with a few amazing snacks in the beginning so you don’t have to worry about leaving hungry!
