1. Le Midi

Why we love it: Here you can get a stunning view of the KL skyline without actually having to drive into the city and face the party traffic.

Indulge in a Mediterranean inspired menu as you sit back and enjoy the beautiful city view from afar. This is the spot to be if you want to watch the fireworks but aren't up for a huge party and massive crowds.

"You'll want to make reservations fast especially for the seats by the window," says Melissa Groot owner of Le Midi.

 
Le Midi is offering a set dinner at RM328++ this includes a glass of Mumm Cordon Rouge Champagne and dishes featuring ingredients such as Alaskan king crab, Jerusalem artichoke, Sevruga caviar and more.

2. Luna Bar

Why we love it: The illuminated pool, swanky music and lovely view of the city makes this a great New Year's Eve spot.

Luna Bar has always been a favourite New Year's Eve destination because of it's sexy poolside vibe and great vantage point. The glass pods that jut out of the building make for the perfect spot to have sweeping views of the city and the fireworks.

If you prefer to be a bit higher up reserve a table on the mezzanine deck and you won't be disappointed. Luna Bar is offering a buffet dinner at RM168++ and this is inclusive of a glass of red or white wine and a party pack.

Top 3 Places to eat in Bukit Bintang

There are a lot of things you can do in Bukit Bintang. Besides shopping, eating is also the most exciting activity for most tourists. Here are the following top 3 places to eat for your reference. Enjoy reading!

Bukit Bintang

Bukit Bintang (or Star Hill in English) is a major shopping district in Kuala Lumpur. It's got a lot of shopping malls, restaurants and cafes. Accommodations ranging from guesthouses to 5 star hotels are also found within the area.

This was our last destination on our Kuala Lumpur leg where we did our last minute shopping. After visiting the Petronas Skybridge, we hopped on the HOHO bus to get to Bukit Bintang. Good thing we didn't take the taxi because traffic was bad.

This post is actually about me and Dell since we separated from the group after getting off at the bus stop.

Dell and I started our shopping trip at Lot 10. We headed down to the food court and stuffed ourselves with our favorite dishes - Hokkien Mee and Roasted Pork.

Renoma Cafe Gallery, Jln Bukit Bintang

Oddly enough, THESE babies were served first, not sure why.  Red velvet cupcakes, and two other signature cupcakes.  I initially thought maybe it was a savoury starter...disguising as dessert.


Their rather elegant house wine, (not house pouring, but house as in signature), which I believe is RM250 a bottle.  A full bodied merlot, apparently made specially for Renoma.  Easy to drink, with a lovely bouquet of fruits and tanine.


Assorted canapes, covering sea, farm and forest...In case the visual is insufficient, the beef roll would be farm, the mushrooms forest, and the salmon sea.

The first meal in town: Heavy breakfast at Bukit Bintang Food Market

We did not stand there for long. We picked a vacant table on the side near a beverage stall. A man wearing an apron asked what we’d have then suggested his menu. After hearing the options I decided to try a bowl of noodle soup with pieces of wonton, green leafy vegetables, and thin slices of pork. It was flavorful and steaming hot, perfect for an empty stomach. My companions tried its other variant, this time without the soup and wonton, which was a little spicy and salty. We ate slowly, savoring the rich aroma that smelled like a mixture of different herbs and spices. Our breakfast looked so simple but it was definitely bursting with flavor.

Heavy breakfast. Wonton noodle soup with pork slices and leafy vegetables.

To quench our thirst, we tried fresh hand-squeezed lemons with cold water mixed with hot brewed tea. It was little bit challenging to drink but the bittersweet flavor was just too good to put to waste.

Hand squeezed lemon. Refreshing citrus drink twisted with brewed tea.

After that we bought some colorful, sticky rice cakes packed in Styrofoam containers. The sweetness was just right to overpower the concoction we had tried earlier.

Home dessert. Rice cakes come in various shapes and colors.
