Coliseum Café & Grill Room, Plaza@Jaya33

The legendary 1921 restaurant has stood the test of time, but as proven so often in KL, the true measure of success is a second branch in a mall. Coliseum has taken the challenge of ‘appealing to the younger crowd’ by opening shop in Jaya33, where Kampachi and Noble Mansion already sit. Their famed Hainanese fare is recreated here, most popularly in the form of the sizzling steak with a choice of four brown sauces. The chicken chop with tomato sauce, spicy oxtail soup, Hainanese noodles and baked crab too will bring you back to a simpler time when dinner and a movie along Jalan TAR was a regular weekend effort. If you so fancy, treat your parents or grandparents here for a temporary visit to the old Malaya days.
