KUALA LUMPUR: In conjunction with the Fabulous Food 1Malaysia campaign, Pavilion KL is set to treat its shoppers a host of gastronomical treats this month.
With new food and beverage tenants and numerous confectionery booths, shoppers can look forward to more exciting choices to satisfy their appetites.
Serai Satay Bar is the latest attraction at Pavilion KL's Food Emporium. The satay is contained in a funky-coloured paper cup that can fill six sticks of satay, two sticks of ketupat, onions, cucumbers, with a special compartment and peanut sauce for shoppers to enjoy satay on the go.
Shoppers can choose from not only the usual chicken, beef or lamb, but also tripe, venison and prawn. Other snacks one can pick up there are cucur udang, keropok lekor, keropok ikan, banana fritters, soto ayam and mee rebus. There is also nasi kukus, which is a dish of steamed rice, three types of Indian curry and Malay-style fried chicken with spices.
Wash it all down with the outlet's signature drink of Serai Blended, made of lychee essence and serai.
Cupcake Chic offers 25 different flavours classified under four groups -- Classics, Favourites, Lite Indulgence and Black Tie.
