Gobo Upstairs Lounge & Grill

The Traders Hotel is actually located at KLCC, however, the car park entrance to the Trader's Hotel (shared with KLCC) is actually a bit hard to find though, where you have to enter through the back of KLCC.

Gobo Upstairs at level 6 of Traders hotel is actually split into the lounge and grill portion. The lounge area actually has a better view of the city compared to the grill area. I'm not sure if you can sit at the lounge area if you planning for the grill menu.

Anyway, after the Japanese lunch buffet we had earlier at Gonbei, we were actually not that hungry when we were there, so we did not go crazy with the ordering. I ordered a medium rare Kobe striploin (200g, RM120), while my friend ordered a Kobe beef cheek (RM50). If not wrong, both are supposed to be Wagyu, if I remember correctly. Sides are ordered separately at RM14 each, and we ordered a cod mashed and baby french bean. Coke was at RM15. Total bill came up to RM271.40.

Food wise, they are pretty good. The steak was done just nice, pinkish inside and not too bloody. The beef cheek was something new that I've never tried before. The texture kind of like beef stew, and is actually very very tender. As for the sides, the cod mash is actually mash potato with cod fish flakes mixed in it. Pretty nice though for one person, might be too much though. The baby french bean was my favourite, as it is cooked with cheese.

Overall, the price here is probably on the upmarket side though food and service is pretty good. The view was not that great at the grill area, but ambience is quite good. :)
