Yesterday we went to Madam Kwan for berbuka puasa. Madam Kwan chain of restaurants have been around for quite sometime and I’ve seen a few outlet pop-up here and there.

We went to the Pavilion’s Madam Kwan outlet, located at the Lower Ground floor, where the Pavilion’s Food Republic is.

‘Truly Malaysian Cuisine’, is Madam Kwan’s tagline and they stay true to it. Even though they do serve western meals on it’s menu, but I wouldn’t recommend it.

When I’m in Madam Kwan, there is only two things I had in mind. The Nasi Lemak and Nasi Bojari. I had Nasi Bojari this time.

Cost around RM20++, it is a pretty heavy meal. You get a scoop of fragrant rice, coloured and fried with bits of chicken, garlic and dried prawns, served with either beef or chicken tender rendang and also some asam prawns. If that’s not enough you have a nice big juicy fried chicken thigh.

Nasi Bojari is one of Madam Kwan’s signiture dish and I highly recommend it.

I also suggest you try its ‘cendol’ for deserts. It’s nothing special but I like that they serve it separately from the brown sugar syrup. This way you can choose to have your cendol desert extra sweet or not to sweet.

The prices are not cheap, but I can say it is worth it. Bare in mind that you are paying for a premium. Its restaurant are nicely decorated, air conditioned, and served by friendly and helpful staff.

Madam Kwan also has a very quick order to serving time. I don’t mind waiting for my food but sometimes when you are hungry, it’s nice to have your food served quickly.

Currently there are four outlets that I know of, one in Midvalley Megamall, one in Suria KLCC on on Telawi Street Bangsar, and one in the Pavilion KL. I’ve been to all of these Madam Kwan outlets several times, and I could safely say that its food and service quality is consistent throughout each outlets.
