Hats Off

Friday, 03/07/09 - 15:38PM Filed in Food by sarah | Views: 1619 | Comments: 0

Top Hat built a reputation as one of the city's best restaurants. But a few months ago, the restaurant had to close. Without missing a beat, they re-opened just a few doors away.

The new Top Hat is smaller but retains that rustic, colonial charm. Owner Maria Danker's touch is evident—the antique Nyonya cabinets, the colourful silk drapes and the charming landscaped garden (perfect for wedding functions, by the way). Danker has divided the bungalow into six rooms named after Malaysian textiles like the Songket and the Kebaya.

The menu is East meets West; items change every three months but staples like their top hat (pai tee) and Nyonya Laksa will not go anywhere. In for a snack? The quiche comes highly recommended. Top Hat is located at 3, Jalan Stonor, 50450 Kuala Lumpur. Tel: 03-2142 8611. Web: www.top-hat-restaurants.com

What do you wish you had more of as a child?
  Pocket money! I used to get only 20sen back in school.
  Respect from my parents. I am my own person!
  I wish my parents listened to me, instead of keeping to the idea that "children should be seen and not heard"
  Attention! My siblings took it away from me. Grrr!
  Freedom. My parents never let me go out with my friends.
  Brand new clothes, not hand-me-downs that were ill-fitting!
  Maturity to impress and annoy the adults with.
  Time! Everything happened so quickly and I miss those carefree days.
  Toys, gadgets and the latest computer games, because we kids were competitive about things like that.
  I certainly wish I heard less of the phrase, "When I was your age..."
