Review: WIP on the Park
April 28th, 2025
Somewhere in the suburbs, one of the Klang Valley's most ambitiously inventive restaurants of 2014 launched this week - it's a dirty, deliriously delicious secret, its sole entrance tucked away on an SS2 side alley that leads up to the top floor of a shop-lot, without a signboard to call its own.
The second premium waffle outlet to open in recent days is Madame Waffle, a quick-service cafe at the Mid Valley mall that promises Liege waffles with a Tokyo-inspired twist, fulfilling the brand's tagline, 'Belgian waffles meet Japanese flavours.'

Despite the deluge of boat noodle eateries, each one does have something definingly distinctive. Here at Aroi-Kaa, it's a boat!
Boat noodles make their triumphant entry into Petaling Jaya's SS2, with a tempting twist this time - this new outlet reputedly relies on the recipe handed to its founders by the owner of Victory Monument's most popular boat noodle eatery in Bangkok.
If Jaslyn's name rings a bell, it might be because she previously supplied cakes to Bangsar Village's Wondermama. We liked her offerings there, but her sweet treats here seem even better - these are some of the most satisfying desserts in Bangsar.
Danish chef Albert Frantzen, his Taiwanese partner Tung Wei & Malaysian friend Priscilla rule the roost at this new restaurant, with a 'farm-to-fork' philosophy that's propelling some of Telawi's tastiest triumphs.
One of Kuala Lumpur's most breathlessly anticipated new restaurants this month is ready to launch: Hong Kong's Tim Ho Wan brings its famed 'Michelin-star dim sum' to its first Malaysian branch in Mid Valley's Boulevard beginning Friday, November 28.
Out Of Seoul's menu is as wide-ranging as required, from snacks like deep-fried seaweed rolls stuffed with glass noodles to heavier meals like seafood pancakes, assorted bibimbap & grilled beef rib sets.
The spirit of Korean fusion fare burns in Soul in Seoul in Sri Petaling. The restaurant is split into two sections - an alfresco area for cafe fare & a more traditional space for BBQ food.
Seoul's soul food seizes the spotlight; here's a look at a contemporary Korean cafe in Sri Petaling, pithily named Cafe Korea.
The Meat & Wine Co is a cave for carnivores - the menu is fleshed out with the likes of lamb shank with koumi sauce, chicken parmigiana and oven-prepared beef ribs.
Mont Kiara's Verve Suites shop-front is fast becoming a hub for noteworthy cafes like La Casa, which recently opened its second branch here, not too far from its other outlet in Solaris Dutamas.
