Introducing Subak!

“Built on the fringes of the natural virgin jungles of Bukit Lanjan, Subak is a sanctuary that promises diners a culinary journey of fine food and personalised service.”

It came as such a surprise that all these while, there is such a beautiful venue 10 minutes away from where I live, and I didn’t even know about it! Thanks to Desmond who was going over for a site recce and treated us to dinner. I fell head over heels in love with this place. It’s cozy, rather private and not too humid. It makes a good venue of choice for private functions.

The menu is not extensive but it has a good mix of Western and Asian dishes. Desmond ordered the Ala Subak’s Soto Ayam (RM12). A rather generous portion for a soup.

I tried the Subak’s NZ Lamb Shank Masala (RM40). The lamb shank was a disappointment. You know how sometimes you can’t finish your food,  so you keep it overnight and then the next day when you reheat the meat, it becomes a little tough, chewy and dry. The meat tasted like that. The Masala sauce, however, was really yummy especially when paired with the sweet potato mash. I felt the Masala could do with a little more spiciness.

Bernard had Barbecued Beef Ribs. It was ggooodd… the ribs were succulent, tender and tasty!

Subak is a great place to unwind if you’re looking for a quick escape from the daily rush. Just beware of the mosquitoes and remind the staffs to light the mosquito coils.

Where to eat: Subak, Lot 3213, Jalan Pencala Indah, Bukit Lanjan, 60000, Kuala Lumpur.
