Lo and behold.! If you are looking for something that doesn’t have carbonara or marinara pasta on the menu this is the place to be. Aposto is a nice little neighborhood restaurant that will make you feel welcome. They hand made their pasta everyday and their staff is friendly and welcoming.
Japanese cuisine with a wide range of audience favourites: Start with guilty-pleasure deep-fried snacks like battered chicken skin with a savoury crunch (RM6) and soft-shell crab with onsen tamago for a runny-yolked dip (RM26), then share sushi platters like ball-shaped temari topped with tuna, salmon, shrimp, surf clam, and yellowtail (RM28) and maki with lightly torched salmon, ikura, and mentaiko sauce (RM11) (RM29). You won't be thirsty with this smooth cold sake (RM30 per tokkuri).

Perfectly charred broccolini topped with smoked beef cecina crumble, shaved roasted almonds, Parmesan crisp and a light salted egg emulsion on the side. RM38 per serving.
Lightly poached Irish oysters topped with pickled Lebanese cucumber, Oyster emulsion and local ulam-ulam leaves. RM12 per piece.
Freshly shuck Irish oyster topped with grapefruit oil, Ikura Shio and Ponzu sauce. RM12 per piece.
This is one of the most luscious and highly recommended item. Nicely interpreted dish using the best Burrata from Puglia with some Asian element, the Mandarin orange Hollandaise, crispy buttery croutons, topped with pickled sardine fillers and purple basils. I love it is served in a warm plate but the Burrata is cold creamy and the citrusy sweet taste from Mandarins balance it all. RM45 per serving.
A very light version of millefeuille with paper thin filo pastry layered between caramelised banana & spices, bitter coffee ganache and crème pâtisserie served with burnt butter ice cream and crumbs. It’s been one of the best version I’ve tasted in town and that ganache is made with local Semai chocolate. Totally worth the calories. RM38 per portion.
I’ve always wanted to revisit DC restaurant for Chef Darren’s signature dishes as they gave me great memories of taste and texture. I’m glad that they feature them in Bref along with other bistro comfort food. The Cold Somen is a must order! Nicely cooked somen with drizzles of truffle oil, aged ponzu, celeriac cream topped with King Crab meat and Hokkaido Bafun Uni. Love the combi of fresh sea, sour and umami taste. RM85 per serving.
Set your sights on this cool restaurant in TTDI for unique and delicious sharing plates centred around Japanese and Mediterranean flavours. It's great for big groups and for those who are looking to try something new, just be sure to make a reservation especially on weekends! First-timers, begin with the cold Eggplant Salad & Sesame Dressing (RM27) that packs a punch with fresh pomegranate and fragrant fried shallots. Also have the simple and delicious Cold Noodles, Duck & Ponzu (RM35). For a sweet finish, Burppler Blueskies Cottonclouds recommends the refreshing Elderflower Granita & Bunga Kantan (RM25).

A meaty affair! @meatologykl is a haven for meat lovers, offering a wide variety including roast pork and cracking pork skin both made in house. So order this addictive Poison Pork as starter to go with your drinks before dinner.
Another noteworthy dish is the Rare Seared Tuna (MYR58.80). The sashimi grade tuna comes with citrusy ponzu to enliven the tuna flavour. But most regulars will come for the flambé dishes such as Hog-Mohawk on fire (MYR72.80). Preparing the dish by the table, it makes the dinner an enjoyable experience.
Fantastic French food in a casual setting. Read my full review here https://kiaraglutton.com/bref-by-darren-chin-ttdi/
