The Grounds of Serai
Serai has a dedicated floor in KLGCC mall called “The Grounds of Serai” where you’ll be able to fulfill any single one of your cravings with many of its ventures here. With the new Super Blonde, a revisited concept from Blonde in Bukit Damansara, it’s a great spot for any time of the day. For a taste of local flavours, of course you’ll find their eponymous restaurant, Serai. To round it all off, one must finish with dessert, and there is no better place to do so than Taffy Gelato.
Bad Scones
The homey cafe Bad Scones has found its way into KLGCC Mall. Known for their buttery and moist scones—which are anything but “bad”—their new outlet brings comforting, simple baking to the new mall. Enjoy their classic flavours or unique monthly specials, paired perfectly with a cup of coffee, in their new setting.
Third Serving
From the same founding team of Oriental Cravings, get your comfort food fix here with classic Chinese fare that they deem is delicious enough to bring you back for not only seconds, but thirds. Think claypot noodles, chee cheong fun, and more that seem like the perfect meal when you’re looking for something comforting.
Fiel Charcoal Grillhouse by Kay’s Steak & Lobster
As a new concept from the team behind Kay's Steak & Lobster, Fiel is a modern grillhouse that lives by fire. This Malaysian brand has a stunning open kitchen where charcoal and mangrove wood are used to impart flavour onto premium cuts of steak, seafood, and more.
Coast and Roast by Fish & Co
The same team that brought you Fish & Co is expanding their concepts with Coast and Roast. Using the Josper grill and artisanal butter, meats are roasted to perfection, remaining juicy yet perfectly charred on the outside for maximum flavour. Not straying far from their roots, there is a whole host of seafood you can choose from that can be prepared in a multitude of ways within their new beautiful space.
Oh Cha Matcha
This popular homegrown brand, famous for its high-grade, Uji-sourced matcha, is now serving its signature drinks on the Ground Floor. Known for its dairy-free and sugar-free options, this is the perfect spot to grab a guilt-free treat. Whether you're craving their unique Malaysian Matcha Latte (with gula melaka and coconut milk) or a classic ceremonial-grade brew, Oh Cha Matcha is a must-visit for a clean and refreshing boost.
