MEANINGFUL FEAST, CELEBRATING MOMENTS TOGETHER AT HILTON KL


Ramadan is marked not just by abundance, but by intention at Hilton Kuala Lumpur. Jamuan Penuh Makna, Raikan Detik Bersama is a thoughtfully curated dining experience weaving together memories, flavours and a sense of togetherness.

Rooted in Malaysia’s rich culinary heritage and enlivened with contemporary flair, the experience also reflects the Hotel’s efforts at sustainability. Keropok Citarasa Laut exemplifies that initiative as a crisp, golden cracker created from repurposed seafood shells. Carefully cleaned, roasted and ground into a fragrant powder, the shells are blended with tapioca flour, coriander, oyster sauce and white pepper, then steamed, sliced and lightly fried to achieve a delicate crunch. An inventive speciality turning what would otherwise be waste into something deeply satisfying.
 
Vasco’s will unveil a flavour-forward breaking of fast buffet throughout the Ramadan month. Familiar favourites are refreshed with modern touches: Chicken Rendang with Wild Fern Leaves, Golden Snapper Otak-Otak paired with Passion Fruit Salad, Urap Daging Pekasam, Short Ribs with Coconut Floss and Strawberry Sambal, and Lamb Meatballs in Rendang Hijau. Each dish a balance of comfort and surprise.

The carving stations are surefire culinary magnets with a whole Roast Venison Rempah Panggang, Halal-certified Australian Lamb scented with Moroccan Chermoula, and Smoked Paprika Beef Shank. Ayam Percik glazed with Tualang honey, Lamb Kabsa with smoked dum biryani and Lamb Chapli Kebab round out the generous meaty spread.

Seafood lovers can expect responsibly sourced an Oceanic Bounty on Ice, Seared Seabass and Flower Crabs Masak Lemak Nenas among others.
 
Live cooking stations proffer numerous drawcards. Among them will include Golden Snapper Fish Head Curry, Beef Rendang Tok, Grilled Scallops slicked with ginger, garlic and chilli, Australian Wagyu Bolognese, Angus Murtabak, Lamb Gear Box Soup and, for a touch of indulgence, Royale Caesar Salad with Reef Lobster Meat.
 
Linger over dessert afterwards with tempting servings of Jackfruit Financiers, Assorted Baklava, Om Ali and Kunafa. A windfall of durian centric creations in the form of Durian Éclairs, Crêpes and sumptuous Serawa Pulut Durian Musang King will keep thorny fruit enthusiasts happy.
 
Available from 19 February to 19 March 2026, the Vasco’s Ramadan buffet (6.30pm to 10.30pm) is priced at RM238 nett per adult and RM119 nett per child (aged 6–12).
 
An early bird offer is available for bookings made between 22 January and 18 February (applicable for up to 10 guests and not valid for dine-in from 2–17 March).

SAVOUR GLAMOUR KAMPUNG AT FOUR SEASONS HOTEL KL

 


Cherished kampung fare with a touch of sophistication mingled with Balinese specialities and Middle Eastern delicacies are front and centre at Curate, Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur until 30 March.

 


Nostalgic dishes levelled up with premium ingredients and refined flair will titillate the palate. Choice picks range from Pajeri Nenas Timur, Beef Short Ribs Rendang, Braised Lamb with Spicy Acar, and Salmon Fish Head Asam Pedas to Curry Puffs, Cucur Udang, Satay, Kerabu Umbut Kelapa and Smoked Stuffed Tahu Bakar with Chicken Floss.




Reeling in landlubbers from the luxe Seafood Bar will be extravagant catches of crayfish, slipper lobsters, crabs, mussels, clams, prawns and sashimi.

 

Guest chef Surya Hadinata from Four Seasons Resort Bali shares the spotlight with his Balinese offerings: Gegecok Udang (cucumber prawn salad with toasted coconut), Sate Languan (fish satay), Ayam Betutu, Kambing Menyatnyat (lamb leg in a robust sauce of coconut, ginger, turmeric and chillies).

 

Venturing further afield, exotic Middle East offerings such as the distinctive speciality of Lamb Mansaf – a Jordanian dish of lamb cooked with dried sheep’s milk piques interest with its hearty meaty richness.

 


Aromatically spiced, the Madgout Rice pairs well with Rubyan Meshwi (Emirati grilled prawns), Chicken Shish Taouk, and Spinach Falafel. Delicious nibbles in the form of Potato Kibbeh and Cheese Sambousek also notable.

 

We love Moqueca de Camarao (Brazilian Shrimp Soup – a mildly spiced broth brimming with deep prawn accent like a dialled down tom yam). Meat lovers can look forward to Roast Beef Topside, Kerala Crab Curry, Malabar Avail Lamb Vindaloo, Hungarian Beef Goulash, and Soy Braised Beef.


  
From the live cooking ‘stalls’, we highly recommend unmissable servings of Kambing Golek Utara, Gearbox Soup, Grand Imperial Bidor Duck with pillow-soft steamed buns, Apam Balik and Nasi Ulam with Truffle.

 


A decedent sweet selection to wrap up the evening includes Apam Gula Hangus with Jackfruit, Bingka Ubi, Sparrow Nest Pistachio, Turkish Delight, Babousa, Kol Washkor Cashews, Teh Tarik Mocha Cheesecake, Serawa Durian and Rose Bandung and Pistachio Panna Cotta. Fresh seasonal fruits, stuffed dates, pralines and retro biscuits and tidbits are also available.




Available until 30 March, the Glamour Kampung buffet is priced at RM318+ per adult and RM159+ per child.
