Lad & Dad @ Wisma Cosway
After dipping their toes into the Malaysian market in 2024, Singapore's Lad & Dad is back in Kuala Lumpur with a bright and casual fish and chip shop in Wisma Cosway.
Lad & Dad began in Singapore in 2015, when founder Keith Koh returned from England after studying and working there, with the mission of starting a solid, dependable and affordable fish and chip option in his homeland. The Dad was initially very sceptical about the idea, but the Lad gradually won him over, so much so that the dad eventually got behind the business.
Together, they researched and developed their signature dishes, evolving from humble beginnings at a hawker centre to now operating three restaurants. Lad & Dad has earned the title of 'Singapore's Best Fish & Chips', as recognised by Michelin chefs and local media, serving customers from all walks of life.
Following numerous fan requests, they returned in December 2024 for a pop-up collaboration with Basic Wine Store. This year, answering to customers' demands once more, Lad & Dad is back—this time for good.
The 40-seater space on the ground floor of Kuala Lumpur's Wisma Cosway is bright and cheery, a brilliant addition to the buzz and community of the OG building in the heart of the city.
Prices for a fish and chip set with a fillet averaging 150g start at RM29.90. Koh also hopes to offer monthly dinner specials in the near future.
Opening Hours: 11.30am – 2.30pm, 5pm – 8pm (Monday to Saturday)

Influencer apologises for filming during national anthem
MALAYSIAN entertainer and social media influencer Haoren has publicly apologised following widespread criticism over his conduct during the national anthem at a recent awards ceremony. The controversy erupted when footage surfaced showing Haoren recording his companions on his mobile device while 'Negaraku' was being performed at the '8TV CUCKOO Starfluencer Awards 2025'. The clip quickly circulated across social media platforms, generating significant backlash from netizens who viewed his actions as disrespectful to the national symbol. In response to the mounting criticism, Haoren released a formal statement via Facebook on August 10, acknowledging his inappropriate behavior and expressing genuine remorse for his actions during the solemn moment. The video has since been taken down. The influencer characterised his conduct as 'inappropriate in both occasion and etiquette,' recognising that he should have participated in singing the anthem with proper reverence rather than engaging in casual recording activities. 'I deeply regret the discomfort that my immature behaviour caused the public,' Haoren stated in his public apology, taking full responsibility for the incident that sparked widespread discussion about respect for national symbols. The social media personality demonstrated understanding of the controversy's deeper implications, acknowledging that Malaysia's national anthem represents far more than a ceremonial song. He emphasised his recognition that 'Negaraku' embodies profound historical significance and emotional resonance for all Malaysian citizens. Haoren indicated that he has engaged in serious self-reflection following the incident, promising to modify his behavior at future formal and public gatherings. His commitment extends to exercising greater mindfulness and appropriate conduct when attending official events or ceremonies. The apology statement concluded with Haoren expressing gratitude toward the public for their constructive criticism and patience during the controversy. He specifically thanked those who provided feedback and guidance, viewing their responses as valuable reminders about proper conduct during national ceremonies. 'I sincerely thank the public for their reminders and understanding. Once again, I offer my sincerest apologies to all my friends who care about me for the inconvenience this incident has caused,' the influencer added, extending his regret to supporters who may have been affected by the negative attention. The incident highlights ongoing discussions about appropriate behavior during national ceremonies and the responsibilities of public figures and influencers in maintaining respectful conduct during formal occasions.

Natalina Italian Kitchen serves authentic Italian delights and treasures
Ensconced on the third floor of Kuala Lumpur's Avenue K shopping mall is an Aladdin's cave of sorts for those hankering after Italian culinary treasures. At Natalina Italian Kitchen, the space is warm and inviting, with sunny yellow lemons perched on the ceiling and interspersed throughout the space. Beaming warmly as he strides purposefully throughout the eatery is Stefano La Penna, the strikingly handsome Italian chef who helms the kitchen here. La Penna hails from the southern Italian city of Abruzzo. When he was just 18, he was anointed into the world of fine-dining when he was selected to work at the three Michelin-starred Reale in Abruzzo's Castel di Sangro. 'There were 84 applicants and only 11 were selected. I was the only one with no kitchen background – everyone else had a lot of experience,' says La Penna, grinning. The eatery is warm and inviting and has an instant, easy charm. Still, there was probably something about La Penna that got him a foot in the door. He ended up staying there for three years, honing his culinary chops. Since those foundling years, he has worked all over the world, from Fukuoka, Japan to the Bahamas. When he was offered a job in Malaysia, he was actually in the midst of pursuing his masters in food and beverage management in Italy, so he was in two minds about trekking halfway across the world. 'When I came to visit KL, I was shocked. I was like 'Wow, this looks like New York!' And I love how connected the city is to food, so I just fell in love with Malaysia – the people, the place, the lifestyle,' he says. La Penna is the talented chef behind Natalina's soulful Italian fare. In September 2022, La Penna took over Natalina and since then, he has made it a point to impart his particular brand of Italian cuisine to local diners. As he is very passionate about the food of his homeland, he doesn't modify recipes to suit local tastebuds. Instead, his goal is to slowly educate Malaysian diners about the natural beauty of Italian cuisine. 'The primary focus is to provide the authentic flavours of Italy, even though we are in the opposite part of the world. And then I want to try to educate guests about the meaning behind these food traditions, so it is understandable for them,' he says. The menu rotates based on the seasons in Europe, so the current iteration offers a slew of summer hits. Beef tenderloin wrapped around tomato bread may sound like a questionable pairing, but it's actually a surprisingly good one. — ART CHEN/The Star To begin a meal here, look at indulging in the rather unusual Carpaccio Di Manzo (RM58) which features thinly sliced tenderloin wrapped around cherry tomato bread and rounded out with extra virgin oil, tuna mayo and freshly grated parmesan cheese. While bread and meat typically feel like heavier fare, this is a surprisingly light offering whose perkiness is accentuated by the tomatoes in the configuration. The meat here is silken and supine and adds contrast to what feels like a meal you're not likely to have tried anywhere else before. Breaded and deep-fried, the calamari stuffed rolls are delicious from start to finish. — ART CHEN/The Star Then there is the Crocchette Di Calamari (RM42) which is essentially breaded, deep-fried rotund balls filled with calamari and served with a garlic tomato mayonnaise. The balls are excellent – perfectly crispy on the outside and laced with sea-faring notes on the inside, buoyed by the chopped calamari in the mixture. The garlic tomato mayonnaise adds a touch of acidity to the meal and gives it a sunny disposition. Italian burrata cheese is the binding force in this light, refreshing salad. Up next, try the house-favourite Burrata (RM52). Here, imported burrata from the south of Italy is served with tomato confit (enhanced with the famed datterino Italian tomato) and wild rocket salad in what proves to be a tangy, Mediterranean hit anchored by the burrata, which is silken smooth, stretchy and incredibly fresh. From the pasta selections, opt for the Gricia Al Tartufo (RM78) or handmade fettucine in a cheese sauce, with duck bacon pasta and freshly shaved black truffles rounding out this assemblage. The highlight of the sauce is the fact that it is strung together using only cheese (parmesan) and water – no cream is utilised at all. The handmade fettucine is enhanced with a cheese sauce and freshly shaved black Italian truffles. The result is sensational – the pasta itself is cooked to al dente perfection and retains a strong, firm bite. The sauce meanwhile is thick and incredibly hedonistic and this is elevated even further by the opulence of the truffles. Then there is the Chitarrina Al Frutti Di Mare (RM88). Chitarra is hand-made pasta that is cut using a pasta cutter (also called chitarra) with wires stretched across a wooden frame, one that resembles a guitar. (Chitarra means guitar in Italian.) The chitarra spaghetti dish harnesses the richness of the sea and serves it up on a plate. In this dish, the pasta is served with clams, prawns and Boston lobster tail and finished with tuna bottarga and lemon zest. Scattered atop is dehydrated black olives. The entire dish is intense in that it that has been stitched together in order to hold a rich tapestry of oceanic flavours. As a result, the in-your-face aquatic notes may come off a little bolder and brinier than you might be used to, but it's also unapologetically underwater-themed down to the tiniest detail. The wagyu striploin has been cooked in a Josper oven and retains tender, juicy meat. — Photos: ART CHEN/The Star For something from the main meal family, go down a carnivorous path with the Tagliata Di Manzo (RM85 per 100g), which showcases wagyu striploin, served with charred broccolini and truffle sauce. The beef has been cooked in a Josper oven and retains a slight crust on the skin that yields to meat that still has a pink, tender heart and succulence coursing through its veins. The truffle sauce is a rich, nirvanic addition that adds a palatial touch to this caveman course. Luscious, creamy and coffee-tinged, the tiramisu is a sure-fire hit. End your meal on a high note with the all-star charms of the Tiramisu (RM45) – a rich, creamy, coffee-laden treat with a sponge centre and an irreverent, unpretentious charm. Guided by La Penna's able hand, a meal at Natalina takes diners on a vicarious journey through far-flung cities in Italy without losing the soul and essence of the country's culinary comforts. This is a feat that is by no means easy to accomplish when you're halfway across the world, and yet La Penna seems to have nailed it down to a science. Natalina Italian Kitchen Address: Level 3, Avenue K Shopping Mall, 156 Jalan Ampang, 50450 Kuala Lumpur Tel: 012-673 3860 Open daily: Noon to 10pm

Whenever a Korean star visits Malaysia, you can be sure there will be a crowd of fans to welcome them. Over the weekend, Korean actor and actress Lee Jong Suk (이종석) and Mun Ka Young (문가영) walked the red carpet at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, drawing a large crowd to Bukit Bintang. The two stars were in town for the exclusive finale fan screening of their drama 'Law In The City (서초동)'. The event took place at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur on Sunday evening (10th August 2025). However, fans have already begun gathering in the Bukit Bintang area in the afternoon, hoping to secure the best spot to catch a glimpse of the stars. Even the rain couldn't dampen their spirits as they waited patiently for Lee Jong Suk and Mun Ka Young to make their appearance. As soon as the two stars stepped onto the red carpet, the crowd roared with excitement. Not only was Malaysia the only Southeast Asian stop for the 'Law And The City' press tour, but this is also the first time Lee Jong Suk and Mun Ka Young visited Malaysia. As such, longtime fans were even more eager to catch a glimpse of them in person. Both cast members made sure to return the love by signing posters and taking pictures with fans in the crowd. Lee Jong Suk and Mun Ka Young said they were touched by the enthusiasm and warm welcome. They also said they would return to Malaysia in the future. After a brief interview and photo session, the two then proceeded to Dadi Cinema for the special screening. The lucky fans who attended the screening were able to watch the final episode of 'Law And The City' with the two cast members. After the event, Mun Ka Young updated her Instagram with photos from the night to thank fans for their support. The actress will make another appearance at Pavilion KL this Tuesday (12th August 2025) for Dolce & Gabbana Beauty, for which she is a brand ambassador. Interestingly, the star also gifted fans at the screening with a few items from the brand, earning her praise for her generosity. We're glad fans were able to showcase Malaysian hospitality for Lee Jong Suk and Mun Ka Young. We hope the support they received during the event will encourage them to return more often.
