Makan Kitchen — Restaurant in Putrajaya

Amazing experience overall!

🍛 Food: The food is very, very nice – absolutely delicious! They go by themes, so you'll find a variety like Indian, Malay, Oriental, and sometimes even Western. Every dish is freshly cooked, and when something runs out, they immediately prepare more 🍽️. The desserts? Totally scrumptious 🍰!

🧑‍🍳 Service: Top-notch! The staff are friendly and always offer water refills without needing to ask. You can really feel they care about the dining experience ❤️.

🏢 Space & Facilities: The place is very spacious, and there’s even a toilet available for customers 🚻. They also provide a Grab-to-Eat section which is super convenient 🥡.

🅿️ Parking: Lots of free parking available – no stress at all 🚗.

🤷 Layout: The only downside is that the food placement is a bit chaotic, and the stations are quite close to each other. It can feel crowded during peak times, and sometimes you’ll end up butt-to-butt with other customers 😅. But it’s manageable and doesn’t take away too much from the overall experience.

⭐ Verdict: Great food, excellent service, and a convenient setup. Just be ready for a little crowding near the buffet line. Still, highly...

We opted for the à la carte menu for dinner, which was a good choice. The two main courses and the starter were fantastic. Well prepared, good portions, and great flavor. Kudos to the kitchen. The service was very attentive and helpful. A special request for ginger tea was immediately fulfilled. Fortunately, we were able to sit down and eat in a quiet corner, so we didn't have to expose ourselves to the hustle and bustle of the buffet.

The entire dinner experience "a la carte" was how I would like the service and food to be in an upscale hotel 👍

My general opinion on "all-you-can-eat buffets": The all-you-can-eat buffet looked good, but firstly, I don't really like the incredible waste of food, and secondly, I find the eating habits of most guests off-putting. "I paid, so I stuff myself until I feel sick." That has nothing to do with enjoyment. At a restaurant nearby, there is a "penalty" if your plate is not empty.... That's the right message. Maybe the restaurant management can come up with a similar method to at least curb unnecessary waste. I can only shake my head at the way most guests stuff themselves and then not finish...

Had the complimentary breakfast this morning . Still staying there at Double Tree at the moment ,so I would like to see the response by the team the next morning . The food taste & presentation was above average in a beautiful restaurant .Excellent ambience. BUT it is of no use if u dont replenish ur food timely in a buffet breakfast where the guests kept coming in . There were so many staffs walking around but oblivion to the fact that most stations had food not replenished .Some plates went empty like for over 1 hour , or more. May be it is a way to control the food cost . But definitely not a way to show hospitality to the hotel guests , especially those guests from overseas that was reading about the dishes with the item tags but no food on the plates .🙈🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ To make my point clear ,I had taken photos of the empty plates or pots .(Most had been empty for more than at least 45 minutes .) U be...
