Out of Africa Restaurant & Kudu Bar

Open Now

Now Closed

The ambience here brings me to Africa. Despite not being there before, the decorations and ornaments and traditional sculpture settles that for you. There is also a Kudu bar inside, and the way it is done, it is very special and cosy. Since I was still feeling a little hungry despite eating granola bar earlier, I ordered Sarafina Pancake with cherries (RM 18) and I requested to change the vanilla ice-cream to chocolate flavour. The ice-cream were melted when it was served to me so I felt like ea

Out of Africa has been around for ages, but its menu never changes. That's certainly not a complaint, since some of its offerings are nearly as rare as rhinos in KL. Ostrich carpaccio. Fairly similar to regular beef carpaccio. A light, delicate starter, ideal for whetting the appetite. Ox Tongue Kalahari with mustard sauce, spinach & carrots. This, on the other hand, seemed nutritionally balanced, with lean protein and guilt-free veggies. The tongue was irresistibly tender and not gamy at all.

Out of Africa has been around for ages, but its menu never changes. That's certainly not a complaint, since some of its offerings are nearly as rare as rhinos in KL. Okavango pumpkin soup with Mielie corn bread. Best savored on a rainy evening. The broth was aromatic and steaming hot, while the bread tasted deliciously sweet and fresh. Biltong. Basically beef cured with salt, vinegar & pepper. Chewy and rather tart, but nevertheless addictive. Unlikely to be a healthy snack though. Chicken live

It feels a little awkward for me to admit that the best tiramisu I ever had was at an African restaurant. Have I not been to enough Italian restaurants? Does nobody know how to make a good tiramisu? Do I have terrible taste? I bombard myself with these questions while I enjoy the wonder of the tiramizulu at Out of Africa.Yes, it is real tiramisu - with Amarula and brandy; I think tiramisu without alcohol is a sham!It's a tiny little portion, but delicious enough that the RM22 is worth it. Just t

The most important characteristic in lamb, if you ask me, would be its tenderness. In this regard, Out of Africa excelled - the meat falls off the bone, but the flesh isn't overly soft that it feels like a bunch of mush. While the overall flavour was pleasant, it seemed to lack a little something and tasted very one-dimensional - and it was immediately glaringly obvious. It tasted saltier than it tasted anything else. Not a bad lamb, but not a great lamb.Oh well, the fries were hot and plentiful

I like my beef lean, which makes rump meat a good choice for me. One of the leanest parts of the cow, and a relatively inexpensive cut. The problem with rump is that it's usually a little tough (but still juicy and wonderful), which is good for those who prefer their meat with a little bite. Personally, I don't prefer the relative toughness but the flavour and lower price makes it worth it.At Out of Africa, they serve their rump as a kebab (but still ordered like a steak - with your choice of d

If you are looking for a place to try out African food, then this is the place for you. Apart from serving african cuisine, this place is also well known hang out for expatriates to catch up on cricket and have a beer. I ordered a lamb shank during one of my visits here. The lamb was huge compared to what you get outside. The meat was tender and came off easily when you poke your fork into it. I enjoy the gravy which goes well with the gamey taste of the lamb. The dish also comes with steamed ve

I've always been a fan of desserts and tiramisu is no exception. I've had tiramisu with alcohol or non alcohol and though both has different taste, I would say having tiramisu with alcohol is the proper way to enjoy the layered mascarpone cheese. The tiramizulu from Out of Africa is soaked in Amarula and Brandy. There is a real 'kick' to taste and texture of the dessert. The mascarpone cheese was smooth and went down easily. Though I would prefer slightly more cocoa powder to the tiramizulu to

It was quite awhile ago since I last dined in Out of Africa. It wasn't my first time being in PJ Palm, but it was definitely my first in Out of Africa. The name has said it all; here, you can get to have a taste of African food, which I must say, I like it very much.These were the two dishes we had. Lamb Shank: Oven roasted with a rich lamb juice on a caramelized onion basket (RM44)Rump Kebab: A steak lovers treat – 200g served with a choice of sauces (RM40)I was surprised at the superb tenderne
