Bangsar/Damansara has one of the wider ranges of cuisine offered in Klang Valley and too often youll see new eateries sprouting here and there as developers enhanced their luxury developments with the value added input like new F&B outlets- not that were complaining- for PLOY was indeed a welcome addition to the Clearwaterdevelopment and the brainchild of Jared Lim. The restaurant is located in the WORK@ Clearwater tower.
Seemingly undiscovered yet due to being open for operation only a week ago, PLOY (gem in thai) offers modern asian cuisine and youll find yourself spoilt between choices of sashimis from their raw bar section & a fair selection of sushis, to their varieties of thai-japanese influenced dishes. Also try their specialities like the mentaiko spaghetti, which by the way is the beautiful Dians favourite dish (MD of Clearwater group). The good news is, it is quite a budget friend menu- with their starters being in the range of RM10-RM20, and mains in the RM20s region.
The building has easy accessibility as I often tease my friend that they can practically ROLL home from my favourite hangout- The hill. (Having one drink too many) =P We started off with some tidbits while waiting for the rest to arrive- Lotus Roots Chip(RM6) was deep fried to crisp and crispy fried baby squid(RM9)was a delight to munch on whilst sipping their house specialty cocktails with quirky names like pardon my pandan (RM25)and tomyamtini (RM24)(uh-huh, you heard right, either you like it or you dont as it has a unique taste of its own)
Lotus Roots
Crispy baby Squid
Pardon my pandan
Tomyamtini
Pink lady Sushi comes with a choice of 4pcs (RM16)/8pcs.
Obviously we were waiting in glee for our linguini mentaiko (RM21), mentaiko being marinated roe of a Pollock. (But unfortunately, my dear vegetarian friend decided to opt for a vegetarian version, which was filled with mushrooms, and what do you know? NO mentaiko so really- no comment for this) do try it and let us know
We thought the Ploys Black Fried Rice(RM25)was quite the visual charmer, raw egg presented on top was use to combine with the squid ink rice. A good marriage of flavours with hinge of spicy touch
For mains, it was the crispy salmon (RM29)and duck confit (RM27), both slightly bothering the sweet side, but fairly well executed.
Give them some time to work out minor hiccups here and there, but overall it was a pleasant dining experience.
Our bill came up to about RM60 each with cocktails
My girls- i look so jumbo size right? This picture is so corporate profile materials haha
