I don't smoke, neither do I take brisk walks around the KLCC park. The last time I saw The Apartment was during its initial renovation way back in year 2008, then The Apartment of The Curve gave me a complete mindset whereby people don't sing much about their food, or rather just a place to hangout. Fast forward to one fine day in 2009, I suddenly craved an uncongested dining place before proceeding to the high-risk-germs-prone PC Fair and I thought no place in KLCC can be THAT bad, right... Hence, we ended up in this rather forgotten (by me obviously) restaurant beside Chinoz.
The Apartment, defined by its name, is a thematic restaurant that portrays a contemporary layout that resembles a cozy home with surroundings and furniture like house kitchen, sofas, library, bedrooms, cabinets and even wardrobes. It is one restaurant that has that laid-back easiness but musters enough attention and energy necessary to produce food that doesn't burn a hole in your pocket. Unlike other chain outlets with uniformed designs, this one at KLCC has a modern and chic touch that suit to the trendy shoppers and frequent foreigners around this area; whereas the one at The Curve resembles an ideal spot to laze over a Sunday afternoon with a book from their quaint little library.
"Do you want me in your picture?" Quipped the friendly supervisor.
Baked Aubergine (RM9.90) - Oven-baked aubergine topped with mozzarella, parmesan and parsley crumbs on a bed of rocket with tomato salsa. We settled with this from their wide array of tapas menu. It taste average despite the over generous serving of cheesy and nutty toppings. Furthermore, the bed of rocket leaves was bitter >.<
Apartment Salad (RM19.90) - Avocado, spring onions, green chili and coriander drizzled with whole grain mustard dressing and sprinkled with toasted spiced almond flakes. The creamy dressing balances nicely with the fresh greens and buttery avocados. Those crispy almond flakes were addictive!
Lemon Sole (RM 27.90) - Fillet of pan fried lemon sole with chili and black olive tapenade served with thyme, mash and rocket. I liked how the chili, thyme and black olives conjuring to match its mains. The zest of lemon was a level-up move to smarten up the already fresh fillets. Mash potato was a teeny weeny bit dry, perhaps some gravy, no?
Baked Chocolate Pudding (RM11.90) - Moist chocolate pudding with a burst of coffee in the centre, served with vanilla ice cream. The taste of coffee was vague, but I could almost dive into the pool of piping hot, fluffy chocolate. Just Lovely.
Yes, a return, yes... Looking forward to sample more tapas and that mind boggling peanut butter and kaya crepe already!

龟头@Kenny Sim@恺俊: If you like a cool hangout atmosphere with beer and don't mind the food, it'll be The Curve; if you want a cozy place with nicer food where you can laze outdoor comfortably, KLCC it is!
