Beta

Beta is chef and co-owner Raymond Tham's contemporary Malaysian restaurant on the ground floor of Cormar Suites at 10 Jalan Perak, 50450, close enough to Bukit Bintang that a dry evening can be a walk. The Michelin Guide Kuala Lumpur and Penang 2026 keeps the room at one star. The Tour of Malaysia is listed at RM630 before service and tax, with a beverage pairing at RM330 and a non-alcoholic pairing at RM250, and the house asks you to allow about two and a half hours. Give them forty-eight hours if a diet means the menu has to change. Service runs Tuesday to Sunday from 6:00, Friday and Saturday until 11:00, and the restaurant is dark on Monday. Reserve on betakl.com or by WhatsApp at +60 19-212 1094. This is the serious table when the bed is on Raja Chulan or Jalan Kia Peng and you want to walk home. Dewakan, Darren Teoh's two-star restaurant on the 48th floor of Naza Tower, is the dinner that needs a car to KLCC and a six o'clock arrival. Sunday is Dewakan's closed night and Monday is Beta's, so the two rooms can share a week if you book them as separate errands and confirm both calendars before you fly. The Michelin page still mentions an add-on of Sarawakian Lawas rice with abalone. Ask whether it is on the menu the week you go, and do not build the evening around a dish the kitchen may have retired.

While you're there

Pavilion and the Bukit Bintang covered walk are the easy evening if the weather turns. Dewakan at Naza Tower is the other starred dinner, and it wants a car plus a six o'clock arrival. Leave Monday free of this address.

Pro Tip: Put Dewakan on Saturday and Beta on Sunday, or the reverse only after you have checked which room is actually dark. A short week gets both kitchens because their closed days do not match.

Best for
A one-star Malaysian tasting you can walk home from Bukit Bintang.
Pair with
Dewakan on another night, if you can be at KLCC by six.
Season / timing
Closed Monday. Friday and Saturday seat later than the rest of the week.
