A massive, menacing shark mural ushers customers into KL's first diving-themed cafe, its interior bedecked in the ocean's undulating blue.
The kitchen casts its net beyond the sea, with separate menus for brunch and dinner. The former features competent highlights like Boston lobster with eggs Benedict (RM58) and smoked salmon with sliced croissants, scrambled eggs, avocado and herbed cream cheese (RM30), while the latter is more extensive, sailing from baked oysters and salt-and-pepper calamari to teriyaki beef sliders and chicken liver crostini.
Acquired-taste mocktails include the Shark Attack (RM21; a blue curacao-based beverage with strawberry syrup to evoke a blood splatter) and the beach-loving Pina Colada (RM15; non-alcoholic unfortunately).
