ENTIER

This French fine dining establishment serves beautifully plated gourmet dishes based on fresh ingredients prepared using French techniques with Japanese finesse. Located on level 41 of Alila Bangsar, Entier is a casual yet polished restaurant headed by experienced Japanese native Chef Masashi Horiuchi. “Entier” is an old French word meaning “whole” or “entire”, inspired from its nose-to-tail culinary approach, whereby every part of the animal or vegetable is used.

A great way to experience authentic Korean cuisine is by heading to ‘I Love Topokki’, which serves authentically Korean food similar to what you might get in Korea.
