The Warehouse Gallery in Kuala Lumpur
Art Gallery, Bar And Steakhouse In Chinatown
Housed in a colonial-style, 100 year old former textiles warehouse in Chinatown, The Warehouse is an art gallery with a café, bar and restaurant (Ril’s Steakhouse) attached to it.
During the day, you can have a light breakfast, lunch or just cakes at the small Café Art, play board games or surf the internet there. One of its special features is serving drinks with artistic flourish – like a cappuccino that is served with an impression of US President Barack Obama done in the foam.
The gallery, which has a series of rotating exhibits by modern local and regional artists, plays 90s indie rock music such as Radiohead and Collective Soul. Highlighted by spotlights, each gorgeous painting spices up the walls and instantly grabs your attention!
The loft-like studio has a very ‘hidden away’ feel to it but it really comes to life at night when the humble-looking Bar Art opens. Besides serving beers, they also serve some pretty amazing, reasonably-priced cocktails, like the classic martini. You will love it!
