EQ, Equatorial Plaza, Jalan Sultan Ismail, 50250, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Website: https://www.eqkualalumpur.com/dining/sabayon/

A contemporary European restaurant with a touch of artisanal Malaysian nests itself on the highest floor of EQ. For in-house guests, access is granted with the hotel key card daily after 3:00 PM by the entrance of the elevators facing the concierge. For non-hotel guests, the only way up is through LG1, where they are greeted by a host who will take them through a private elevator that goes directly to Sky51. Guests are struck by the moment the elevator doors open and immediately transported to a new realm. The obsidian black floor and ceilings are illuminated with spellbinding stretches of starlight embellishments.

Expect world-class service and some of the most exquisite food with one of the most beautiful and fascinating panoramic views of Kuala Lumpur. Elegant high ceilings and dreamy décor accented by copper and bronze tones are embodied by a backdrop of the everchanging hues of the KL cityscape. Soft and soothing French melodies transcend guests to a different world with a warm ambience. Guests may choose to dine in the private room which can seat a total of 34 adults or in the main dining area with the Twin Towers in view which can accommodate a total of 52 diners.

The kitchen is helmed by Chef Hans Boren, who has over 20 years of experience holding a Michelin star in Sweden. Preparations for each course require multiple hours of meticulous care with classic cooking methods which ensure that essences are sealed. The courses offered are simple to understand with distinguished flavours and tastes that are cooked and presented in its purest way. Carefully selected wines are also available and handled with proper storage, allowing 100 pointer bottles to be served by the glass. Occasional exclusive wine pairing dinners are also arranged.
