The best wine bars and shops in Kuala Lumpur
As part of the M Group's list of bars and clubs, Lavo adds to the company's portfolio as a wine specialty resto-lounge. As expected, when night falls, the place fills with people – reservations are absolutely necessary on Friday and Saturday nights.
There are two main reasons people flock to wine specialty resto-lounge Lavo: firstly for their extensive selection of wines; at the time of writing, there are over 1,000 labels to choose from, and the owners are always looking to expand their range. Most of it being French. Secondly, their prices are pretty reasonable, which is partly down to the large volumes of wine they are able to stock. A bottle of Canepa Finisimo Cabernet Sauvignon from Chile, for example, is available for RM125++, which isn't much higher than the expected retail price of RM100. If you're feeling hungry, the kitchen is open from 12noon to 12midnight, and serves up an East-meets-West range of dishes.
