Best Pastas in KL

You not only can get sandwiches here at Tedboy Express but you can also enjoy the dishes from their selection of pasta too. Their pasta menu is perfect for patrons looking for something a little heavy for a fuel packed lunch. A simple yet humble dish – the Spaghetti Chicken Bolognese serves a generous amount of pasta, chicken Bolognese sauce and topped with parmesan cheese along with a cherry tomato and basil garnish on top. The springy spaghetti is cooked to al dente and complements well with the sour yet sweet Bolognese sauce and sharp taste of the parmesan cheese - promising you a hearty feeling to each bite.

Here’s another food joint that just screams, “PORK!” Located at Bangsar Village 1, this porky place is spacious and comfortable. Makes you in the mood for a great comforting meal such as a creamy pasta. Their signature pasta here is The Wolf’s Favourite. A creamy combination of loads of smoky pork bacon and mushrooms, topped with a perfectly runny poached egg. You know the first step, spear the eggy dome and let it tie the dish together. Everything is perfect except it being a little too dry. If you can’t get enough of meats, order their ribs as well. 

Skillet at 163’s version of the wild mushroom penne is probably one of the best there is in town. The depth of flavour from the creamy mushroom sauce is nothing but phenomenal. It’s rich, savoury and packed full of earthiness. The penne is also done to absolutely al-dente with an adequate portion, where the choice of penne was perfect for the coating of the sauce and hearty toppings. Absolutely delicious, this is definitely worth going for. Also, do store some space for desserts. Considering the cosy and comforting ambience, if your partner is an Italian food lover, this is the place to be. 

Two Sons Bistro's Spicy Prawn Linguine comes highly recommended. Not only does it have a large prawn, the sauce is done absolutely perfectly. The rich seafood essence could be tasted throughout the creamy tomato sauce, providing that rich depth of flavour and aroma to the linguine. Tiger prawns are really fresh and plump, not to mention sweet as well. If you're looking for a seafood pasta, this is definitely it. 

Chewy and plump pastas tossed together into a mélange of tomato, herbs, and spices do carry a salivating façade that will surely get anyone’s tummy to rumble in no time. The dish is laced with tangy tinges with a little bit of tang for those with slightly rugged taste buds. What makes this dish so luscious is its texture, where the chef’s honed skills come into play. A vibrant touch of shaved cheese is speckled in to give one final layer of savoury flavour. Despite the small portion, this dish is sure to wow your taste buds! 

Aglio Olio Pasta is known to always be a simple dish, full of flavours. That's exactly what Hot Kitchen @ Corus did with their Vegetarian Aglio Olio. Despite the lack of meat, the addition of olives, cherry tomatoes, chilli flakes add so much into the flavour that you won't know that it's actually vegetarian. 

One of the great things about pastas in Mikey’s New York Pizza is the unique sauces of each dish, and of course the name of it as well. One of our favourites would definitely be the “Hot Mama’s” Spicy Bolognese simply because the sauce had that intense depth of flavour. It’s sweet, savoury, fresh and finish with a tinge of spiciness and kick. The spaghetti too were cooked nicely and comes with a side of garlic toast. Portion-wise, no worries as the serving is quite American sized. If you unbelievably still have some space left in your belly, don’t miss out their pizzas. 

Two Ox has always been in the running for the best French restaurant in KL. Options are far-flung, yet among the favourites are their pasta. A vegetarian take towards this rejuvenating dish certainly does add a vibrant participant in their menu. Imagine spiral pasta, topped with rockets, raisins, cucumbers, speckles of pine nuts, and a bed of tomatoes; showered with a mellow take of pesto to give it an altogether delectable flavour. The itty-bitty textures from the raisins and pine nuts employ a nice dimension to this dish. Oh yes, desserts here are spot on! 

Jemi Cafe is your friendly neighbourhood-sorta cafe that offers a limited selection of items on their menu. Do not worry as the limitation of dishes is actually good, as it helps the cafe focus on what's most important. As for their smoked duck aglio-olio, it is done quite nicely with a good amount of garlic, chilli flakes and of course, cut-up smoked duck. The flavours are well balanced and nothing is overpowering. This plate is definitely worth the try. What better way to wrap up your meal than a cup of cuppa.

The creamy linguine that’s served in T-Club delivers on what’s needed from a pasta dish such as this. With roasted chicken slices in a cream mushroom sauce topped with Parmesan cheese, this plate of pasta is certainly rich and flavourful. The chicken slices are juicy and they work well with the sauce. As far as the sauce as concerned, it has the right balance of being rich and full of flavour, especially since the mushroom flavour is very evident in the sauce. Even the textures in this dish make it a pleasure to take every bite, with the combination of well-cooked pasta, juicy mushrooms and chicken slices; all of which are bound together with the cream sauce.
