KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 19 — This week, the Dining Loft located at Level 7 of Pavilion Kuala Lumpur opened its doors with three new eateries namely Pigs & Wolf, Village Roast Duck and Rocku Yakiniku. In the next few months, another four eateries will be joining this space accessible via the escalators from Level 6 (near TGIF). Previously, it was the Beauty Hall that housed spas and salons.

Village Roast Duck is a well known name within the Klang Valley for its roast duck and Cantonese-styled dishes. For their third outlet, they have introduced new dishes like drunken cockles, crispy whitebait with truffle, and steamed free-range chicken. Pigs & Wolf is better known as Three Little Pigs & Wolf with established outlets at Bangsar Village and Tropicana Mall. The porcine orientated casual eatery is popular for their pork ribs, burgers and pastas.

To date, Rocku Yakiniku is the only new dining concept that has opened here. Originating from Singapore, it offers casual Japanese yakiniku buffet-style with live entertainment for RM32.90++ per person (lunch) and RM49.90++ per person (dinner). According to their Facebook page, the buffet is limited to only 100 minutes.

There's no worry of smelly clothes as Rocku uses smokeless Japanese charcoal grills.
