Motorino promises to deliver authentic pizza experience straight out of Naples, Italy. While we couldn’t confirm the authenticity, one thing for sure, there’s only one Motorino in the whole Malaysia.

Voted as the Best Japanese Restaurant in Singapore by the Asia One People’s Choice Awards 2016, Tampopo has got to be one of the things to eat at SkyAvenue Genting. Though menu might be limited as compared to other Japanese restaurants, try out their chicken-based ramen and chicken katsu.

LeNu Chef Wai’s Noodle Bar
Who’s up for a bowl of piping hot noodle to warm your body under the breezy weather?
