Some of these restaurants do not have websites so i will provide the addresses only. Last updated 7th Nov 2003. The list is in no particular order. |

| Finger's Restaurant |
| On my recent trip back to KL, i met up with my sis who was dining at this wonderful little restaurant in Damansara Perdana area. The owner is Shiamala, or Sham as she is known. Nice decor, really cozy and well set-up. The selection of food is wide, from Indian to Italian. Take your pick. :) Prices are very reasonable too. All the food preparations are done by Sham herself. Amazingly talented she is and very friendly. Situated in a rather quiet area near the hills, you will find it rather relaxing and away from the hustle and bustle of downtown KL. Address: No. G-03, Block C, Perdana Condominium, Jalan PJU 8/1, Damansara Perdana 47820. Tel: 03-77285461 / 77269590 (Mapt to follow soon) :) |
