Dining extravaganza
No lifestyle hub is complete without a culinary scene to match. Tipsy Flamingo, created by Singapore‘s Tipsy Collective, will feature a distinctive fusion of futuristic design and the energetic atmosphere of an 80s-inspired summer pool party.
Amazonas, the newest project from The Kenny Hills Hospitality Group, brings a dynamic Latin American rooftop restaurant and bar concept with shared foods from the region, open-fire cooking, entertaining drinks, and late-night DJ fiestas.
Seibu’s own premium Japanese cuisine hall, located on the building’s ground floor, offers a bewildering variety of traditional Japanese foods, including ramen, sushi, and a sake bar.
A green oasis in the city
TRX City Park, a huge 10-acre rooftop park that promotes biodiversity and sustainability, is set to be an urban sanctuary in Kuala Lumpur city. Open to the public, it offers flowing greenery, play spaces for the kids, water features, and exquisitely shaded niches that will accommodate everything from peaceful reflection and outdoor dining to community gatherings, sports, and recreational activities.
