Salt Lick at Solaris Mont Kiara: Restaurant Review

Salt Lick, the latest restaurant to occupy the street-level corner lot of Solaris Mont Kiara’s SohoKL complex – this specific shop-lot has housed everything from a short-lived Taiwanese eatery to a Peking Duck outlet over the past five years.

East And West

Salt Lick tackles both East & West with reasonable results; customers can start with a spicy-tangy salad of grilled prawns with young mango, lemon, lemongrass, chillies & coriander (RM20) before moving on to a main of petai fried rice with satay & acar (RM18) or a four-cheese pizza with parmesan, mozzarella, feta & blue.

From Indian To Korean To British Flavours

Salt Lick is run by the folks who own the Ravi’s Banana Leaf Rice outlets, so it’s no shock to see ‘amritsari macchi’ – fried fish – with mint chutney (RM15) on the menu. To swerve from Indian to Korean flavours, snack also on some bulgogi-braised chicken wings (RM18). Wrap up this schizophrenic meal on a British note, with sticky date pudding topped with butterscotch.
