Then came Asian Heritage Row and changed that equation by giving a whole handful of great clubs that a slightly more sophisticated clientele could choose from and yet a good healthy dose of what matters, wink wink. While CBB (Changkat Bukit Bintang) has stolen a bit of AHR’s thunder, there are a few places that come in and surprise. Think Sebastian Haegel’s Space or William Ng’s Asian Heritage Mansion.

In that tradition of (possible) surprise a new venue, Blanc Le Club, has come in (taking over from failed Atrium) and fits a cosy niche for EDM lovers, something that works very well as a weeknight club and delivers good music.
Though the music policy is still trying to find its feet there are some encouraging signs that bode well (bring back Ray Soo!) as does the overall interior, a coolly lit space of white that works. But alas the city is very much awash in similar venues, Blanc Le Club will have to work hard to get their footing. But if they do provide that very French idea of weekday clubbing – going down at 10pm and hanging with friends for a few hours while listening to some groovy tunes – they could secure a spot in the clubbing hotspots of the city.

Address : Blanc Le Club
19, 21 & 23 Jalan Doraisamy, AHR, KL

As Bayernhaus is the only outlet specialising in offering Paulaner beers (made using well water running underground the brewery in Munich, which explains the clear, distinct and crisp taste), I’d recommend the Wheat Beer Natural with a smooth taste. It’s one of the few varieties served on tap (RM25+ per glass) from five-litre barrels (most other beer choices here are served in bottles). Notably, after downing it the brew doesn’t leave bad breath as compared to the aftertaste of mass-produced lagers. Among all the Paulaner beer choices available here, the most potent (at 7.9 per cent alcohol content) is the Salvator (RM18+ per bottle). Don’t let its light taste fool you; after the second round, it’ll surely bring the red on the faces of unseasoned drinkers.

Another must-have is the ‘seasonal’ Hacker Pschorr Animator offered here once a year in March. Not many nightspots in Malaysia offer this, which is just too bad, as seasoned drinkers will surely enjoy its strong roasted malt flavour.

Open time: Mon-Sat, 11.30am-11.30pm
Address : Bayernhaus 7J, Persiaran Capital Square, Cap Square, KL
