Dive into Deliciousness with Exclusive Dishes
Pavilion Kuala Lumpur will introduce an exclusive offering made available for private rooms dining, making each visit unique. Diners can savour exclusive dishes such as:
- Signature Roasted Chicken 金牌烤咸香鸡 (RM49 Half/RM98 Whole Chicken) Golden-brown and crispy on the outside, this succulent chicken is infused with savoury flavours, delivering a perfect blend of crunch and tenderness in every bite.
- Braised Kampung Chicken with Golden Abalones 黄金鲍焖甘榜鸡 (RM198) where the natural sweetness of abalones melds with the tender chicken during braising, creating a rich and robust flavour that delights the palate.
- Steamed Carp Fish Head with Chopped Chili 剁椒蒸鲜松鱼头 (RM139) is spicy yet balanced, the freshness of the steamed fish head harmonises with vibrant chopped chilli, offering a rich and flavorful experience.
- Mustard Roche Shrimps 芥末罗氏虾 (RM149) where the sweetness of the shrimp mingles with the heat of the mustard, delivering a delightful and dynamic flavour experience in every bite.
- Braised Duck in Tea Oil 茶油焖鸭 (RM98), taste the tender, juicy duck meat beautifully contrasts with the fragrant richness of tea oil, creating a dish that balances robust umami flavours with a refreshing aroma.
- Stir-Fried Preserved Beef with Dried Chili 皱皮辣椒炒腊牛肉 (RM128) an improved version of the dish, where the aromatic heat of dried chilli perfectly intertwines with the smoky richness of preserved beef, creating a uniquely addictive flavour combination.
Customers are recommended to try out Nong Geng Ji signature dishes and crowd favourites to relish the true Hunan experience. Signature dishes that customers can enjoy are:
- Stir-Fried Pork with Abalone and Chilli 鲍鱼辣椒炒肉 (RM72). This dish is Nong Geng Ji’s best-seller, with over 700,000 servings since its launch in June 2022. It features tender pork leg and Hunan green peppers, which provide a mildly spicy kick. Prepared over high heat and served in a wok with a burner, the dish stays warm for diners to enjoy throughout the meal.
- Signature Grass Fish Fillet with Chilli 招牌湖蝶鱼 (RM65) is dressed generously with pickled chilli sauce. In Hunan, pickled chilli sauce is used in many dishes, and many chefs see it as an essential. A whole fish is filleted and then cooked gently with the sauce. Each slice boasts a delightfully chewy texture. This trademarked dish is also available in a non-spicy version that is suitable for kids.
- Pan-Seared Green Chili with Century Egg 擂辣椒皮蛋 (RM32) where all the ingredients — green chillies, century egg and garlic — are served in a mortar. Before enjoying them, pound the ingredients to your liking to extract their aromas and goodness, then mix well!
- Big Shrimp with Vermicelli and Garlic 蒜蓉大虾仁 (RM52), featuring fresh Lotus Shrimps from Guangdong and Longkou Vermicelli from Shandong, cooked right at your table for the ultimate in flavour and freshness.
- Deep Fried Glutinous Rice Fritters 糖饺子 (RM12) the perfect Hunan snacks to conclude your meal on a sweet note, especially for children with a sweet tooth.
For those who prefer milder flavours, the non-spicy selections and desserts options are kid-friendly and cater to diverse palates. Some of which are:
- Beancurd Skin with Egg 鲜腐皮焖鸡蛋
