Okay, so, as I was saying to my friends visiting here and staying at one of the Kuala Lumpur Malaysia Hotels, that I could take them to Bora Asmara which has a nice chill ambiance in the one of the busiest part of town, but that I’d like to check out Subak. I’ve heard lots of good things about the cuisine and what a better way to check it out then to take my friends out to dinner there.

Subak is found straight under the flyover if you’re on the route heading towards Bora Asrama. We arrived around 7:30 pm and there was still a bit of sunlight left. We found the staff to be quite attentive and genuinely friendly. First off, when we were ushered inside, I noticed the place wasn’t as big as Bora Asmara and had fewer tables, but the ambiance felt nicer. I’m not really sure if it was because it was dark inside that I had missed a page on the menu, but I found the Western/Asian items to be less expensive than Bora. The drinks were okay, I’ve had better smoothies. My friends enjoyed their drinks, saying that the bar was definitely not stingy with the alcohol.

For starters, I ordered my favorite soto, I really wasn’t too hungry and soto fit the bill. Compressed rice, shredded chicken, vegetables with potato cutlets in a thick rich chicken consomme that was a great taste sensation from first bite to last. My friends ordered the Ibu Yati’s Gado Gado, a vegetable salad served in crispy popiah skin bowl. It came with a peanut sauce which I could smell it’s aroma at my side of the table. I has a taste, and it was delicious.

For the main course, I ordered the Moo’s Curry Mee with Fresh Water Prawns and my friends both ordered the Pan Fried Medallion Cod with Butterflied Prawns. Both our meals were absolutely delightful, a taste sensation. We didn’t have desert, my friends were tied from travelling and I was a bit under the weather, so we ended the night early. All in all, I liked Subak.
