Shook! (Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA) ★★★☆☆

After a few Malaysian meals in a roll, we finally decided to take a break and tried something different this afternoon. As I vaguely remembered, there was a restaurant called Shook! at the Feast Level of the Starhill Gallery that was packed with customers when first visited 2 days ago. This would be our venue for today's lunch.



But whatever happened 2 days ago, I had no clue. Today, the place was "swatting flies" (an old Chinese saying).



We couldn't care less as we were too hungry to even think. Luckily the restaurant has a good international cuisine menu so I could easily order with half of my brain working.  

Baked escargot in a rich butter sauce was a wonderful way to start our lunch (5.5/10).



We were less happy with the deep fried soft-shell crab (4.5/10).



They had a good interpretation of this classic Italian dish, linguine vongole (5/10).



Equal to the task was my roasted chicken leg with pumpkin purée and baby asparagus (5.5/10).



If you're tired of Malaysian food like us, find Shook! real quick.
