An Italian spread

The Favola experience at Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur begins with a walk through the open gallery into a rustic Italian setting reminiscent of the Renaissance era. Every Saturday, the restaurant serves its Italian lunch buffet with generous servings of hot and cold antipasti, pizzas of pepperoni or mushroom with spicy lamb sausage and cheese, Italian desserts including tiramisu, waffles with sweet jam, and so much more. Main courses can be ordered from the kitchen, with choices like Lasagna Al Forno (traditional beef bolognaise with chunky wagyu beef cheek layered with fresh pasta, cheese crust and truffle oil) and Grilled Salmon Trout (pink peppercorn and pistachio crust with tapenade cream), among others. The buffet is priced at RM115 nett per person. For reservations, call 03-2263 7434.
