Kuala Lumpur –10^th Apr 2023. In succession to the much-loved Oriental High Tea last quarter, the talented culinary team at TRACE Restaurant & Bar, led by Executive Chef Taib Ridhwan, will once again pay tribute to the multi-cultural food scene in Malaysia by introducing the “Santapan Petang” Malay High Tea, which celebrates traditional, village-style Malay afternoon snacks.

Elegantly presented in a “congkak” (Southeast Asian mancalas) game board which is truly reminiscent of the Malay culture, our new crowd-pleasing high tea encompasses a delicious range of Malay savouries started with a trio of refreshing appetizers, namely Pulut Panggang, Egg Skin Popiah with Rojak Sauce, and Otak-Otak Terrine with Mango Kerabu. What follows is a range of mouth-watering savoury items, including Chicken Satay Celup, Deep-fried Tiger Prawn Celup Tepung, Beef Taufu Bergedil with Chili Soy Sauce, as well as the highly-addictive Crispy Fish Skin with Curry Salted Egg Sprinkle.

Patrons with a sweet tooth are in for a treat with our delectable dessert platter, assembling all-time favourite Kuih Lapis, Kuih Tako, Kuih Bakar Kemboja and Jackfruit Chiffon Cake, as well as Tapai Pulut in Pandan Leaf, Serawa Durian with Toasted Bread and Som Som Sweet Porridge with Gula Melaka – rather less known, yet oh-so-delicious all the same.

ADVERTISEMENTS

And what’s a Malay high tea without Malaysia’s national beverage, Teh Tarik (pulled tea) as a finishing touch? Our freshly brewed warung-style Teh Tarik is blended with the right balance of black tea and condensed milk, making it the perfect ending to this indigenous tea indulgence.
