Knowhere Bangsar: Seasonal Cocktails and Good Food!

We're back at Knowhere Bangsar, for movie-inspired cocktails and good food! This pork-free restobar has made quite a name for itself and is well-known for their great, unique cocktails and the fantastic variety of fusion food with a Malaysian touch.



Knowhere are currently on their third edition for their seasonal cocktails; this time, the cocktails are inspired by movies in living colour such as City of God, Gone with the Wind and Slumdog Millionaire.

Tea for two? The Water for Elephants (2011) (RM86, serves 3) is actually a gin-based cocktail served in a custom Hendricks teapot with matching teacups with embossed ice cubes, perfect for those who love theatrics. A delicious mixture of Hendricks sous vide osmanthus, Manchino Rosso and roselle.





The Planter's Wife (1952) (RM38) - Plantation pineapple, Plantation Guatemala, Manchino Rosso sous vide pandan, vanilla syrup, cinnamon syrup, Angostura bitters, lemon juice, milk


Mocktails - Calamansi fizz (RM18) and Mango Lassi (RM22)



We've always enjoyed the food here at Knowhere, and this time is no exception. Bold, spicy flavours accompany the plump Chilean black mussels in the Sambal Mussels dish (RM17).


We also had the Grilled calamari (RM26), a whole fresh South China Sea squid, grilled and served with a sambal belacan salsa.


The Wild seabass vongole veloute (RM48.80) took a while to arrive, but it was well worth the wait. A beautifully cooked, moist deep sea sea bass fillet with crispy skin, clam veloute and a rather unique accompaniment of sherry caviar, made in-house.




We love a good burger, and the Un-Quarter Pounder (RM30.80) was one big, delicious and juicy burger. The beef patty is sandwiched between sauteed mushrooms, gherkins, peppers, arugula and finished with a creamy soubise sauce.



The Nang Nak Knowhere pizza left such an impression on me when we had it here last, so I just had to order it again! Still as good as I remembered it, the combination just works so well. We had the half and half again, so for the other half, we had Duck confit with onion marmalade and fresh plums.
