The Malaysian Airlines Golden Satellite Lounge is one of the best lounges world wide. Elegant interior and fine dining is the signature of the lounge. They have spa, nice shower area, massages area and many more.
Outstanding variety of food to chose from the buffet. All meals changing subject to fit the daytime. It isn't possible to count all meals, just some examples: Several soups, fried rice/noodles, several meat dishes, salads, sandwiches, canapés, several Danish’s/muffins, ice cream, cakes, fresh fruits, sweets. Their Taiwanese noodle is a must try. The bar is very well stocked with fine wine and spirits. You can also order fresh prepared cappuccino, espresso, ice blended chocolate and etc.
If you are willing to spend a little bit more, it is worth every cent to enjoy their facilities and the food.
Food Review
Taste Rating: 9/10

Fong Lye has diversification of food choices, especially the wide variety of snacks in Taiwan. First of all, the Taiwan Braised Beef Noodle (Aromatic and a little spicy) and the Three Varieties of Supreme Diced Chicken (can try lar), following by the Sweet Potatoes Balls (not bad), Taiwan Style Glutinous Rice Wrap-up Sausage, Baked Sausage and other snacks to filling the stomach. If you would like to have something more outstanding, Taiwan Steamed Boat Set Meal would be a good choice.
Overall, this restaurant offers some decent tasting food. However, the price isn’t too affordable so consider this restaurant to be quite pricey. As said earlier, the spacing in the restaurant is limited; moving around in the restaurant is difficult too with the narrow space. By the way, Fong Lye Taiwan Restaurant has two other branches, one in Jalan Imbi and the other in Desa Sri Hartamas.
Old Taste Food here is not too bad. The Nasi Lemak was actually quite good. The rice was firm and fragrant. Served with onion sambal with a piece of rending/fried chicken with the usual egg, ikan bilis and nuts. The curry noodles was also not bad at all. The soup had enough spices and coconut milk which is spicy yet not overwhelmingly hot/strong and tasted very "home cooked" (but too oily).
The quality of the food is just nice, and the price is reasonable or maybe you would say it’s ‘affordable’. If you have nowhere to hang out during the saturday evening, then you may consider Old Taste Kopitiam. It’s really a nice place for you to relax after the heavy workload.
Every dish listed on the menu sounds extremely tempting. The portions are more than average which is surprising considering the reasonable prices. Amongst some of the notable dishes are the signature Manhattan Fish & Chips, Creamy Seafood Pasta and the Manhattan Flamed Prawns. The Fish & Chips are possibly one of the best in town (Must try if you are a fish-lover). It is a huge fish fillet fried in a delicious batter. If you want a collection of all the tasty delights, we suggest ordering the Manhattan Seafood Platter for Two. There’s fish, oysters, prawns and calamari served with either French fries or garlic rice
Basically, the Manhattan Fish Market is not for everyone. If your preference is for healthy, veggie-based cooking, you may leave feeling bloated and woozy. However, if you are into for deep-fried, fatty, oily food, then the Manhattan Fish Market won’t disappoint you.
The salmon slices were thick, freshed and absolutely delicious after dipping it slightly with the wasabi and soy sauce. No sushi meal would be complete without unagi, their unagi with rice is just nice to compliment both tastes. As for tofu, it stood up firmly and didn’t wobble around. On top of that, the outer layer was fried till a very light golden brown color and has slight crispiness in it.
Overall, the food is great, Sushi Zanmai’s food are above average. Of course there are better Japanese food but Sushi Zanmai is not in the same league as them. Looking at the pricing, it is only fair to compare Sushi Zanmai with other Japanese food chain like Sushi King and Genki Sushi. However, Sushi Zanmai provide more varieties.
