Movida

Movida has enjoyed a fair share of hype in recent weeks, swiftly becoming the most popular watering hole in Kota Damansara's Sunway Giza mall.

It's a stylish two-story venue that seems to appeal to a wide clientele, ranging from youths snacking on pizzas to middle-aged beer guzzlers.

Smoked salmon on mesclun leaves, tossed with citrus oil, grapes, pineapples & cheese balls. A tangy salad that came in a surprisingly generous portion.

Deep-fried whitebait, tossed with paprika & chili flakes. Could have been more crisp, but at least it wasn't too oily. Good for guilt-free snacking.

Fettuccine pesto, with scallops, parmesan, pine nuts & basil. Not the best in town; the pasta was a tad too starchy and the pesto sauce was weak.

Grasshopper & Spanish Fly cocktails.
