It is a fine European seafood bar serving oysters, seafood & liquor (champagne, wines, beers, spirits).

 

We were there at about 9pm and it was not crowded nor noisy. Oyster Bar has a great view of the Marina Bay front. If you do come, the best time for photography is around 6pm, where dusk starts to set in, and lighting changes the color of the whole area from 6 to 730pm giving you a variety of colors. Select your seats and bar stools facing the bay front - so if you do take photos, you get to use a pretty scenic backdrop.

The Marina Bay backdrop

A sea-shell chandelier !

Oysters wrapped in bacon and then baked to perfection. For those who don't eat raw oysters - this is the dish for you. The bacon's juices mix with the oysters. It feels is more bacon flavoured & is without a fishy after taste.

We waited a long time to savour this lobster pot pie !!!



The pot pie was served with this tiny buttery dough/bread.

It was piping hot ! Rich ! OMG - delicious !!! Definitely worth the wait.



After dinner, a stroll around the Marina and Fullerton districts.

 

Thank-you for reading.

Food → Alexis, Bangsar

Alexis Bistro

29 Jalan Telawi 3
Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur,

Malaysia
Phone: +60322842880

Operating hours: 1100hrs - till late

Price: Affordable

Bangsar is an affluent residential suburb on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur, - an area akin in comparison with Holland Village of Singapore. Bangar is full of westernized eateries - cafes, bars, bistros, crafts, boutiques, etc. It is surely one of the most happening & popular hangout places at night.

Tonite, we went to Alexis Bistro. Alexis brings back fond memories of my university days where I studied in KL and Alexis was the hot hot place for hot hot genY dates. The decor is stylish & chic & modern. Serving "Grade A" dishes - a combination of Western, Asian, Middle-Eastern and fusion & delicious handmade cakes and pastries.



Warm & cozy atmosphere. Lots of tempting handmade cakes at the entrance area simply lure your heart to Alexis !   

We surely over ordered - filling up our entire table with plates of FOOODDDDDD! As this is our first time to Alexis in about 4 years - we decided to order as many items as possible.

 

  

Niçois Salad: Balsamic dressing with springy french beans & topped with poached egg & tuna. Everything paired so well with the salad dressing.

 

Tapas: Lebanese pita bread with hummus & baba ghanoush. Is a kind of Arabic Middle Eastern dish. I personally prefer the hummus (a mixture of chickpeas with oils and has somewhat nutty taste), & my bf prefers baba ghanoush (this is eggplant mixed with oils as well - tastes a bit smokey). The portions were perfect for 2 people.

 

  

Tapas: The clams in a little bit of white wine were sweet. The garlic & chili are surely a bonus for I am a great chilli fan. The gravy is just so awesome ! Too bad we didn't eat the bread which was extremely hard. Omg - don't let anyone see us slurp up the gravy.

  

Lobster Roll: Tender & sweet lobster flesh with a thin coat of mayonnaise in a soft hotdog bun. Nice.

Last but not least - this is what I have been waiting for the entire night - this is the comfort food that university students crave for and hangout with...

The Signature Remarkable Tiramisu Cake

 

  

This cake is really soft, creamy & moist. Topped with crunchy caramelized nuts & served with a strawberry sauce.
