Quan's Kitchen, Four Points by Sheraton, KL

Feeling the need to feel nourished? Look no further as this rather new player in the city offers time-limited, wholesome, East meets West, customizable set to individual preference. Preset meals are available; otherwise, i enjoyed the idea of being able to mix and match items from the menu to my liking. Nevertheless, it was as if i was sitting in an exam, answering multiple-choice questions: main and sides.

Fan.

Located on the 8th Floor of the Four Points by Sheraton, KL Chinatown, the oriental heritage ambiance was felt throughout, from the moment we stepped in the main hotel entrance. Pretty good location for stay.

Lift to the restaurant level. The dramatic tones add character.

In the eatery, highlighting some Chinatown favs on the wall.

My dad selected the Beef Rendang, Poached Kailan and Sambal Prawns with Jasmine Rice. The tok-style rendang thick, chewy chunks were well-flavoured. I'd pick something else over the Kailan though.

Open kitchen to see the chef in action, with other local colourful murals or patterned tiles.

My mom had the Pan seared Seabass, Mixed Vegetables and Garlic Fried Rice with Carrot Cake. I'd score my mom's selection higher. The fish was juicy delicious. The rice wasn't overly garlicky (good or bad, depends on you). The cake was moist with sweet cream topping.

My brother's set was the most carb-fueling- Fettucine Beef Ragu, Sambal Prawns and Garlic Fried Rice with Banana Cake. The pasta main definitely gained the top score in our session. It was al-dante, its beef aroma wasn't overpowering with gentle bits of meat. The sambal wasn't the best as it leaned towards the sweeter, darker, more viscous version. Also moist despite looking dry, the banana bread paired well with the caramelized cousin.

Without being biased, i think i scored the highest overall. Although it appeared smaller in quantity, it had finesse. The Pan seared Salmon, like the Seabass, was cooked perfectly- juicy, fluffy flakes and sweet. The Sauteed Vegetables provided fiber and balance with its crunchy asparagus. I would enjoy a larger portion of the potato dauphinoise (i had to Google what it is, so i cheated). Layered, cheesy, yumminess. For dessert, the Sago Pudding was immersed in sweet, milky brown sugar sauce.

How did you fare?

All nourishing set meals are priced at RM 33 nett and if you have CIMB bank cards, there is a 20% discount now (please check for any update), which i think is a great deal. Food was quality, environment was pleasant. Enough for one. The eatery wasn't crowded on the time of our visit and service was friendly. Will i be back for more? Likely (before this promotion ends) because i didn't manage to try the Sous Vide Beef and Duck Confit in this outing. Tried them? Let me know.

Bonus, after dinner, we explored the public areas of the hotel and then entered Jann, a bar top that extends to a city skyline view. Famous for its local twist on cocktails, the names on the menu definitely turn heads.

Like this Bak Kwa cocktail.

Wanna try more!
