From Bak Kwa to Cham O cocktails: KL bar Jann's new Petaling Street-inspired menu


Jann's new cocktail menu draws inspiration from historical figures, traditional trades, local culture and legends that make Chinatown a heritage destination.

Lately, Petaling Street has become one of the go-to places in KL for great drinks and cocktails, thanks to bars like Penrose (which recently made its debut at No.50 on the Asia’s 50 Best Bars list), Rust (which specialises in tuak cocktails), long-time stalwarts like PS150, Botakliquor, and The Attic; as well as others like Wildflowers, Concubine, Kapitan Haus, and Her House in the vicinity.

Inspired by the local meat jerky that is commonly sold in Chinatown, Jann’s Bak Kwa cocktail is one of the highlights of its new menu. — Photos: MICHAEL CHEANG/The StarInspired by the local meat jerky that is commonly sold in Chinatown, Jann’s Bak Kwa cocktail is one of the highlights of its new menu. — Photos: MICHAEL CHEANG/The StarOne other Petaling Street bar worth visiting is Jann, especially since the bar has always been about paying tribute to the flavours, sights and sounds of KL’s Chinatown.
