After the lean, mean years of the MCO, it’s great to finally see more new cocktail bars opening within the Klang Valley lately.

One thing that stands out among the new crop of bars though – many of them are small, unique spaces, with an emphasis on the quality of the drinks and a focus on making sure the guests have the best service possible.
