## About Skillet KL

Skillet KL sits in the lane Kuala Lumpur needs more of: serious, technical cooking that does not pretend the city's flavours are too loud for fine dining. The kitchen uses European structure for seafood, poultry, sauces, and desserts, then lets local fruit, herbs, spice, and acidity cut through the richness. It is more restrained than the city's headline Michelin-star rooms, but that restraint can be useful. The result is an accessible fine-dining address with enough ambition to justify the longer menu.

## Menu highlights

- **Discovery Tasting Menu** RM 498 *Modern European menu using Malaysian produce and tropical accents*
- **Hokkaido Scallop with Laksa Leaf** RM 88 *Shellfish sweetness sharpened with local herbs and citrus*
- **Chocolate Textures with Bentong Ginger** RM 48 *Dessert pairing cocoa richness with Malaysian ginger heat*

1. ★★★★☆ 4.0 Editorial sample The cooking is polished without feeling anonymous, especially when the kitchen leans into modern european detail instead of luxury for its own sake. It is expensive, but the service rhythm and wine advice made the longer menu feel measured. — James Chen · 22 May 2026
2. ★★★★★ 5.0 Editorial sample Skillet KL feels completely anchored in City Centre: the room, pacing, and discovery tasting menu all make the meal feel specific rather than imported. The strongest courses had a clear point of view and enough restraint to avoid turning dinner into a demonstration. — Priya Sharma · 14 March 2026
