Vin's Restaurant & Bar, KL

Located in Taman Tun Dr. Ismail (TTDI), Vin's Restaurant & Bar is the place in the neighborhood to settle for a nice meal away from the hustle & bustle. A row of trees opposite the venue covering the traffic makes the place feel even more quiet & peaceful as well.

We started the evening with a variety of starters/appetizers:

Crumbed Scallops - RM18.90
Pan-fried breaded scallops.
This dish must be eaten as it reaches the table while it's still hot, the scallops were chewy, the batter wasn't too thin nor too thick. Served with a dip.


Sautéed Mushrooms - RM16.90
Sautéed button and king oyster mushrooms flavored with herbs on crusty bread topped with parmesan.


Smoked Salmon Bruschetta - RM21
Served with caper-flavored pesto.
I'm not a fan of smoked salmons, so there wasn't really much for me to fancy. Taste-wise was okay.


Nachos (?) - RM??
Has slices of chicken meat beneath, topped with a generous amount of cream cheese. Very appetizing.


Chicken Tikka Masala - RM18
Chunky chicken cuts seared and served in a masala sauce and served with focaccia (an Italian flat bread)
The masala sauce was rich in flavor & Vin's did not stinge on the chicken cuts.


Spicy Lamb Masala - RM18.90
An authentic Indian favorite, slow-cooked in an earthen pot and served with crusty bread.
The taste fits the name of this dish nicely. Spicy, thick, rich in flavor and the lamb wasn't gamey smelling.

Moving on to the main courses:

Beef Bacon Pizza (10" thin crust) - RM28
Flooded with generous portions of beef bacon, smoked turkey, topped with mozzarella cheese and baked to perfection.
The crust was thin but even & did not slop downwards when I lifted it up, generous toppings & tasted good.


Pasta Carbonara - RM25.90
Beef bacon and mushroom sautéed in olive oil, then tossed in a white wine cream sauce made rich with egg yolk.
Everything in this dish was perfect, except for the texture of the sauce; It was made a little too rich & thick.


Spicy Lamb Bolognaise - RM26.90
Fusion lamb dish, made in a spicy bolognaise sauce and flavored with fresh herbs and wild mushrooms.


Baked Black Cod Teriyaki - RM52
Another fusion dish, Served with side salad and aglio oglio pasta. Melts in the mouth.
Please check for availability.
As the description says, the black cod melts in the mouth with a very tasty fusion flavor from the teriyaki sauce.


Fish and chips - RM27
Traditionally English, Hake fish dipped in a light batter, fried and served with French fries and coleslaw. Simply mouth watering.


VIN’s Rack of Lamb - RM54
Imported frenched juicy tender lamb served with fresh sautéed potatoes and a garden salad. Simply melts in your mouth.
Please check for availability.
The lamb was juicy, succulent, flavorful, did not smell gamey, and came off the bone easily. Opt for this instead if you're not a beef person.

And lastly, the desserts:

Treacle Cake Pudding - RM15

The Elusive Chocolate Truffle Cake - RM16.90
We had second rounds of this dessert and finished the dish in a matter of seconds. The mouthwatering chocolate truffle cake melts in your mouth together with the single scoop of ice cream served alongside it.
