Frangipani

Located in a beautiful art deco building in Bukit Bintang, Frangipani delivers high end dining at high end prices.

Named after a frangipani which unfortunately no longer stands out front, the restaurant pulls off the fusion trick, marrying European and Asian cuisines, to make an end result which is greater than the sum of parts. Dishes like the strudel of seared foie gras and apple rendang (unlike the Malaysian dry curry, this is a fried fruit reduction) may sound like a dog's dinner, but are actually very good.

Dining at Frangipani does not come cheap, with a full meal for two including a bottle of wine, unlikely to leave much change from 1,000 ringgit.

Frangipani is on Changkat Bukit Bintang, a five to ten minute walk from Bukit Bintang and Raja Chulian monorail stations.
