Pantai Hospital's New Inpatient Menu

In collaboration with award-winning Chef Dato' Fazley Yaakob, Pantai Hospital introduces a brand new menu to boost their patient's overall hospital experience. It is their belief that a well-balanced meal and good food can assist in the patient's recovery, uplifts one's spirit, mental and emotional wellbeing.

Jean-François Naa, Chief Executive Officer of IHH Healthcare Malaysia, said, "We began working on enhancing recipes and menus over the last ten months, consulting the chefs and dieticians across our hospitals. I am now pleased to unveil that there are new wholesome meals for patients which are tastier, heartier and with a focus on local fare to make them feel at home."

Gone are the days of bland, unappetizing hospital food; Pantai Hospital's new menu challenges this perception by offering a selection of meals that are both flavoursome and nutritious while fulfilling their patient's dietary requirements. Furthermore, the dishes are low in calories, sugar, salt and oil, making it ideal for the consumption of recovering patients. "We're introducing meals that are not only good for nourishment and healing, but also pretty on the eyes, aromatic on the nose and exciting for the heart and mind," said Chef Dato' Fazley.

Locally sourced ingredients are used in the preparation of meals here, to ensure that the ingredients are at its optimum level of freshness while reducing carbon footprint. Furthermore, by widening their patients’ dining options and giving them better choices, the patients will be able to select the menu items that they like and thereafter reduce food waste. 

Certain fresh ingredients are purposefully selected as it is high in antioxidants to ensure the patients can recover as well and quickly as they can. The new dishes will be prepared by the hospital's in-house chefs, who have been trained by Chef Dato’ Fazley. 

This specially curated menu is inspired by Malaysian favourites, infused with an element of "home" and a touch of modernity, such as Chicken lemak cili api pasta, Beringin pandan rice, Soup a la Doraisamy, Nasi lemak istana, and more. Amongst the notable new dishes here is the Nasi Dulang Pantai, a rice platter featuring an assortment of Malay-Malaysian dishes along with condiments, fresh herbs and sambal, typically served during festive occasions such as weddings and thanksgiving ceremonies.
