Last Saturday, I had walked in here with the intention of ordering Guest Chef Alan’s (Instagram: @malaccamakanking) sandwich (it’s a Char Siew Glazed Beef Tongue Banh Mi) but sadly, they had run out of it. Fortunately, Chef Gabriel (Instagram: @paulotism) was quick to suggest he‘d make me something new: a yet-to-be-launched sandwich.

My verdict: Two thumbs up!

The Kimchi Grilled Cheese is one appetising creation for sure. I liked how the not-too-sour house-made Korean pickles and locally-grown kale offset the hot ooey-gooey richness of melted mozzarella and smoked cheddar. Ordinary butter wasn’t going to cut it either. It had to be sesame butter that got the honour of being spread on the sliced bread being they went on the grill.

Another plus: The portion is hefty, so two people with smaller appetites can split it.
