Acme can rival any upscale restaurant and bar in New York<br />

City’s Meatpacking District in terms of design and appeal.<br />

The service is impeccable and staff will remember your<br />

name. Order a cocktail at the concrete bar while your table<br />

is prepared by the always-attentive staff. The menu is as<br />

diverse as its customers: try the snails wrapped in bacon<br />

with a side order of the salted jumbo chilies.<br />

Closer to where the nightlife action is, in a cross street<br />

of Changkat Bukit Bintang, is Palate Palette. Described by<br />

some as the city’s shining beacon of arts and culture, Palate<br />

Pallette offers food, drinks and showcases the work of local<br />

artists. Other pleasures include underground parties. Next<br />

door is the jazz bar and nightclub No Black Tie where live<br />

music and tasty Asian cuisine will keep you dancing until<br />

deep in the night. Just around the corner, there is a whole<br />

strip of bars and clubs, beginning with Havana Bar & Grill<br />

that draws an international crowd.<br />

A typical Asian experience you will find in KL’s<br />

Chinatown: the place to satisfy your garment fetish<br />

amongst other things. The many stores housed in old<br />

townhouses are filled to the brim with fabrics, threads,<br />

beads, gemstones, pearls, special teas and anything else<br />
