Tuck into Whole Roasted Lamb to start off your Medan Kampung buffet. Tender and juicy pieces of lamb, beautifully spiced up and served with gravy and sambals.

Let’s not forget this season’s festive favorites of Satay, Lemang, Ikan Panggang and Ayam Panggang!

Bowls of colorful Kerabus, Ikan Masin, Telur Masin and Ulams with Sambals are bound to be explosions of flavours on the palate with their piquant and complex flavours and textures.

From hot buffet warmers, a tempting array of rice and curries are beautifully spread out from Nasi Minyak, Ikan Bawal Goreng Berempah, Kambing Masak Merah to Ayam Penyet, Daging Lembu Panggang Sos Berlada, Sayur Tumis Kacang Panjang and more.

Many will not miss ladling out a bowl of piping hot Bubur Lambuk to warm up the tummy. It’s comfort food and a good dish to start after a long day of work and possibly fasting.

For some Chinese flavours, savor a spread of Fried Wanton, Ginger Beef, Sauté Prawn, Steamed Fish, Fried Rice and Fried Noodle. There is also that classic Szechuan Soup, a concoction of sour and spicy thick broth filled with lots of various ingredients for textures and flavours.

Hit the live stations as chefs will dish up classic favorites such as Chicken Rice, Asam Laksa, Curry Laksa and Vege Lok Lok upon your order. From fluffy chicken rice to slurping noodles in various gravies and tucking into an assorted array of vegetable lok lok and yong tau foo, these are dishes that are comfort crowd pleasers.

The Indian counter is filled with a kaleidoscope of copper and claypots filled with sumptuous flavours of Chicken Tikka, Fish Tikka, Chicken Vindaloo, Chicken Biryani, Naan and Dhall. Behind the open kitchen, chefs are also churning out fresh skewers of Tandoori and Tikka meats as well as hot Naan bread.

The Seafood station is hard to miss with its glorious spread of imported Yabby, Bamboo clams and succulent Crabs and Prawns. The yabbies’ were succulent and sweet that evening.

Sweet notes of Buah Kurma, Aneka Kuih Muih, Cakes, Puddings, Ais Kacang along with house special drinks are always a good way to end the meal. Order freshly made crepes from Crepe Station, topped it with berries and Soft Serve Ice Cream for that luscious note of satisfaction. And if you are a kid like me, grab these giant Candies on your way out…

PJ’s Bar and Grill @ New World Petaling Jaya Hotel

Latest Rooftop Dining in Petaling Jaya!

With a stunning view that stretches over our cosmopolitan city to mesmerize diners, PJ’s Bar & Grill is potentially a favorite hotspot for many to coome. The latest rooftop dining in Petaling Jaya, PJ’s Bar & Grill is located at PJ’s newest hotel – New World Petaling Jaya Hotel.

The restaurant is located on level 30 of the hotel, strategically set in Paradigm Mall in Kelana Jaya, in the middle of prime location for PJ. Being the tallest building in that area without any other high rise building to block its view, PJ’s Bar & Grill boast of a 360-degree view that will have many diners opting to snatch up its alfresco area to enjoy the beautiful cityscape view meeting the backdrop of nature.

A cocktail or an aperitif in hand is all one needs to complete this gorgeous scenic view in the evenings when the sun sets and the sky turns into a kaleidoscope of colours.

There hotel’s infinity pool is located next to the restaurant and echoes much gorgeousness at sight. Tempting us with its reflections of the sky, one is tempted to book a stay at the hotel to use this pool!

The restaurant’s indoor dining area is set spaciously with simple and minimalize design. Allowing natural lights from all the glass wall panels and a peak of the cityscape, dining indoors is just as lovely as its viewing deck area in different ways.

The bar offers plenty of beverages from cocktails, aperitifs, beers and wines to non-alcoholic drinks to keep every thirsty traveler happy.

PJ’s Bar and Grill is helmed by Executive Chef Alexander Chong and his culinary team. With over 20 years of culinary experience in internationally acclaim restaurants, Chef Chong brings forth his repertoire of Western and Asian cuisines in the menu of the restaurant.

As the name says, the menu is filled with small bites, soups, seafood and meat with a solid list of desserts thrown in for good measure. If you fancy live cooking, another focal point of PJ’s Bar & Grill is its indoor open grill, serving up the city’s freshest ‘Catch of the Day’.

Our mocktails of Hibiscus Cooler was nicely thirst-quenching for the evening to go with our meal.

For starter, Chef Chong whipped up his specialty of Crispy Fried Fish Skins with Salted Egg to tease our appetite for more to come. These crispy unctuous fish skins are super addictive with salty egg sinfulness and fragrant aromatics that will have you reaching out unconsciously.

Under Bites, we tucked into Beef Tartaré (RM28), classic French appetizer of chopped raw beef cubes seasoned with mustard aioli, served with sprouts, chili and capers as well as toasted garlic bread.  Add a little of everything to the beef tartare on toast and you get a delicious hit of flavours with a little heat and tangy.

House cured Marinated Salmon (RM28) was a classic crowd pleaser. Slices of sublime salmon with its smoky salty notes goes well with a salad of rocket leaves, thinly sliced onions, capers and a creamy sauce.

The Chowder (RM16), served in a pretty royal blue enamel pot, was lusciously thick with unctuous seafood essence. There were also pieces of chopped seafood in the chowder, finished with sprigs of dill and herb oil. Each spoonful is decadent and the portion was just right as it was very rich.

More from Bites, the Chicken Wings (RM26) came in a sticky sweet and spicy BBQ sauce. Sides of celery and blue cheese dressing completed the dish to echo the classic buffalo wings that we all enjoy.

For mains, it’s a feast of the grill! Savor Jumbo Satay of Chicken (RM28), Beef (RM38) or King Prawns (RM88). These were marinated and nicely chargrilled till cooked. The accompaniments of a spicy BBQ sauce and Chimichurri sauce jazzed up the meat and seafood skewers nicely.

For sharing, the PJ’s Party Platter (RM38) makes a hearty plate of various bites. From breaded Crabcakes and crispy Fried Soft-Shell Crab to hot Steak Fries and crispy Wonton Chips with various sauces, this platter is perfect with cold beer, cocktails and wine. The presentation also makes a wow factor at sight too.

To wrap up the evening on a sweet note, we opted for Classic Vanilla Crème Brûlée (RM28) and Citrus Baba (RM28).

Stunning night view from PJ's Bar and Grill
