Kiku
A Japanese-inspired hideout with dual personalities
Nestled inside the heritage-rich Yap Ah Shak House is Kiku, an intimate spot that brings a slice of Japan to the heart of KL. By day, it’s all hearty ramen bowls and cosy vibes. But as night approaches, it slips into something a little more… spirited. You’ll find craft beers, wine, and unexpected cocktails. Sip on shiso-infused gin, or try the Rising Sun, a grapefruit and green tea take on Suntory Kakubin whisky. So ditch the same old happy hour and head to Kiku for some creative twists.
