Underground Société (CLOSED)

Kar Wai and Kar Heng, the power brothers behind CoffeeSociété and Garage 51, are attempting to revitalise KL’s café scene with food that steers clear of mystery hams and hollandaise; the eggs Benedict here is a bold upgrade with slipper lobster and pumpkin. Other dishes include tasting platters that carry avocado wedges topped with feta, or prawns, or couscous, a hefty steak burger with mushroom casserole and egg, and a boozy bombe Alaska. The 30-foot bar is where cold-brewed coffee-on-tap is dispensed, a concept we predict will take flight across more of KL’s cafés.
