Feast
Haven of
Malts & Cigars
Rowena Jo Fernandez
finds a newspot formalt and cigar enthusiast to
unravel and relish in a cosy and upscale haven that isTheMalt &Leaf,
where one can truly enjoy the finer things.
T
ucked
away in Bandar
Utama, between lavish
standards and a blanket
of stars across the skies
is The Malt & Leaf-haven
to cigar buffs and single
malt aficionados. Walk
through the doors and you won’t only
see upscale and sophisticated décor, but
be greeted by the warm and welcoming
air that breeds luxury. The Malt & Leaf
is a fine brew of refined style that meets
first-class standards where patrons can
enjoy top notch dining paired with a
tasteful variety of international single
malts and cigars.
The Malt & Leaf is a new addition to
new born hangout, The Roof. Shaped
with the idea of creating an environment
for the elite, the space takes pride in its
polished décor that gives the affluent
setting the feel of a gentleman’s club.
Decked out with classic Victorian styled
vintage leather chairs and hardwood
flooring, the detailed décor offers an
impression of a masculine enclave with
the warm colours, wood panelling and
open space. The restaurant borrows
soft and warm lighting from candlelight
cast shadows that sets a relaxing mood,
encouraging patrons to unwind with
friends, family, and colleagues or
entertain guest.
Bringing a unique platform for the
urbane folks of Kuala Lumpur, The Malt &
Leaf stands out among the crowd of bars,
pubs and lounges that are strewn across
the city because of the different market it
lusts after. The private ambiance paired
with the tasteful décor and specialities
that it carries make this hideout the
right place for true cigar and whisky
enthusiast.
What I loved the most about this
gem is the newfound sense of attractive
elegance that’s gained from the brilliant
rooftop setting. Whether digging into a
meal, picking at light tapas or sipping on
international malts, patrons can delight in
the picturesque views under star studded
skies while watching the city go by. Once
I settled into my seat and took in to the
ambience coupled with fresh air and
the rooftop view; I was sold. Designed
with thought, there is a retractable roof
to ensure the night is not spoilt by the
unpredictable Malaysian weather.
