Crystal

Review

SETTING

The trendy cocktail rooftop bar spans two floors, with the lower level being the bar and lounge area that’s opulently decked out with tastefully positioned glass, crystals and rectangular mirrors, whilst upstairs one will find the lavishly adorned dining hall.

FOOD

The Crystal Black Angus beef burger comes with a herbed Black Angus patty that’s deliciously medium rare and juicy. Accompanied with staple burger bun-mates of lettuce, sliced tomatoes, onions and cheese, the meat is decadently topped with a sinful piece of foie gras and shavings of black truffle that adds a creamy, buttery flavour to the already luscious flavours on show.

Another substantial and tasty dish to opt for is the 120-days grain fed Black Angus sirloin steak. Fattened on grain for 120 days, the top shelf meat is best ordered medium rare to savour its true natural flavours. Coming nicely seared and caramelised on the outside with a juicy and melt-in-the-mouth tenderness within, the dish is a meaty delight that’s balanced off with sides of sundried tomatoes, fries and gravy.

DRINKS

A signature cocktail of Assam Bloody Mary resembles a zesty fusion of local spices and assam boi and offers a rich and different take on the classic cocktail.

SERVICE

The service is naturally top notch. From the waiters to the bartender, all are well trained and ably offer guests professional service. Truly a high standard establishment.

PRICE

For a high-class establishment, the experience doesn’t come cheap. A total of RM300 was spent for two mains and a single alcoholic beverage, though it must be said it’s money well spent considering its locale in a 5-star hotel, the top-notch service, lavish ambience and great food.
