Bread & Olives @ Lookout Point

I've been reading a few post about a place with fantastic view of KL night where you can have your meal. This is non other than Lookout Point. So, a group of us foodies decided to go there to have our meal and view.

We first group up near Leisure Mall, Taman Segar. There were 6 of us. 3 in each car. Me and KampungBoy did the driving. I am the leading car as Jason is the one that know how to go there with the help of an instruction printed from a blog. Oh, by the way Jason is from Ipoh, and me a KLian is so malu of not knowing the way lol. Following the intruction, we manage to make our way to Lookout Point from Taman Segar in about half an hour. It's actually not that far. Thanks to Jason that chose a shorter route that skipped the congestion in Pandan Perdana.


We've reached.

My advise is to go there before 8pm during weekend, if not you won't be able to find a place and have to park below.

Bread & Olives is a restaurant serving Western & Middle Eastern fare. We chose a table near the edge so that we can have a view. The lighting on our table is not bright enough to take good pics, so when each dish arrived, we'll move it to another table with bright ligthing to take the pic. It's so funny come to think of it. The waiter even advise us to eat while the food is hot. Nah, we're floggers, so some sacrifices is needed.

My half roast chicken. It's way better than Kenny Rogers. The meat is juicy and flavourful. The sauce is goes superbly well with the chicken. It comes with briyani rice which is also very tasty. Best ever roast chicken I had.

Rating: 4/5

We all shared a pizza, which was cut into 6 slices. So, each of us get to eat a slice. I think is this Bur Al Arab pizza with minced lamb. The pizza is really good with it's thin crust and flavourful tops.

Rating: 3.8/5

KampungBoyCityGal's lamb shank with briyani rice. I tasted a bit and it's not bad. Better than Chili's. It's the mayonaise purposely written "no" or I'm seeing things?

WMW ordered Lamb Shawarma and Jason ordered Chicken Shawarma. It's something like kebab wrap in pita bread. It tasted normal.


They have open kitchen concept. Below is the pizza oven I think.

KL's night view from Lookout Point

There are two other restaurant in Lookout Point, Gasoline and another one serving Malay food, I forgot the name =p

After the dinner, we decided to go back to Cheras and have a drink. We drive around looking for a good cafe to go. In Taman Connaught we found this cafe but it was full house and asked us to go home hence the name in Chinese.

So, we ended up in Station One in Taman Mutiara. WMW and I drank beer to end the night. It just hard for me not to post this picture of CityGal. Hope she won't kill me in Liane's farewell dinner tomorrow.
