Haven , Look Out Point


Look Out Point is located at Ampang Hill, also known as “Little Genting”. As there is no public transportation, you can only get there by car or taxi. I met with friends at Tesco,  Cheras and carpool.  


The restaurants start operations in the evening. It’s best to arrive around 7pm, it was not crowded. We parks at the ground level which is charge RM2. We walk up the stairs to the restaurants, only takes few minutes. For an extra RM3 you can choose to drive up to the road to the jockey parking. This is recommended only if you cannot walk up a flight of stairs. As the parking upstairs is limited and can get crowded.

There got few restaurants to choose; Haven, Gasoline-Cafe, Look Out Point Western Food, Gasoline-Cafe and Panorama Restaurant.  

Panorama Restaurant is the newest restaurant, located at the Look Out Tower. Before that we can climb up the tower to catch the panoramic view of KL and used to be free for everyone. But is becomes Panorama Dining area and commercialized.  
















We choose Haven, it serve Malaysian, middle Eastern and western cuisine. Fresh Flower and candles adoring each table, it given a warm & Malaysian Feel.

 

I order 1/2 Chicken With Briyani Rice, RM22. The price is still considered reasonable, food are average. my friend order Tom Yam Rice, taste not bad. 

Look Out point is the best place to dine and feel the cooling fresh air. We enjoy the beautiful sunset scenery of KL. Views are unforgettable.

吉隆坡塔 KL Tower

    在吉隆坡已近10年,远远地遥望吉隆坡塔可说好多回,都没上过高塔参观。这次去KL的Seminar,晚餐安排在这,这可是我第一次上高塔观夜景。
   吉隆坡塔(Menara Kuala Lumpur)位于咖啡山 (Bukit Nanas)的山顶;是世界第五高塔,与双峰塔(Twin Tower) 同是大马地标之一,具代表性的现代建筑物。




地面上层是大堂的出入口、购票处并设有店铺售卖纪念品与快餐店。除了360度的观景台开放给游客参观,也可登上TH02的旋转餐厅,俯瞰全市。
     拿了票就排队搭高速电梯,几十秒就可抵达餐厅。 

     旋转餐厅缓缓地旋转着,整整1小时才旋转完一圈。现在你所在的位置、眼前所看到的景色,将在1小时后才会重现你眼前。
     一边用餐,一边看风景,还有钢琴现场演奏;是难得的享受。
     食物的选择很多,一次可享用不同的国家的食物;大马或南洋,中西式,日式等等,本地水果,榴莲、红毛丹、龙眼都有,但这些都是季节性的水果。甜品种类也多不胜数。但我认为还得改进,一些食物的味道普普通通。





    往窗外看,双峰塔赫然出现我眼前,近距离地看到它雄伟的全貌。还可从容的俯视繁忙的吉隆坡。
     傍晚6.30到那,看到夕阳也还可欣赏夜景,到了晚上一栋栋的建筑物就闪耀着炫目的光芒。让我有个难忘的夜晚。
