How many of you have found a good steak tartare in KL?
I seem to only recall having it locally at Bistro a Table, and the Swiss restaurant in Ampang. Would love to find some other good spots..

QUOTE(jen410ed @ Apr 11 2016, 11:14 AM) Yea well, you shouldn't go to Marble 8 for soup and caviar. You go to Marble 8 for their steaks. Much more reasonable than Prime. The Mandarin Grill is another really nice place for steaks too. I was quite surprised upon finding out that the sides are charged less than Marble 8. I alrdy banned Prime long ago....Went there with some freinds from oversea.... it was an embarrasing experience... Mandarin Grill, was that the place they recently converted to some pseudo michellin star outfit? |

QUOTE(pltan @ Apr 11 2016, 01:11 PM) 1. They were out of ALL those aged/grain fed steak2. the steak were consistently over cooked for 4 out of 5 orders. 3. Service were bad, perhaps thats because we were dressed like cina-beng and not some gwailou in suits. |

I use starwood privileges for 50% off food if dining as a apair.2. the steak were consistently over cooked for 4 out of 5 orders. 3.

Just like Chambers Grill at Hilton KL Went there with some freinds from oversea.... it was an embarrasing experience...

From the place's I've tried, starting from the best :
1. Beast 2. Marble 8 3. Hanare ( only on weekend lunch buffet which serves wagyu beef cooked to order...definitely if you're looking to stuff yourself with steak at a "resonable" price ~RM180? including all the other items on the buffet ) Avoid Prime (Le Meridien) and Chambers (Hilton) even with SPG privileges and Hilton Premium Club respectively, both which grant 50% off if 2 people are dining. |
