The Exchange TRX Food Guide: 3 Restaurants Worth Discovering

MONO Malaysia

As TRX Eats lights up the precinct, here are three lesser-known spots worth the detour

The Exchange TRX has no shortage of big-name bites, from global brands to crowd-favourite cafés. But tucked between the headlines are a few quiet gems worth slowing down for. As TRX Eats kicks off from 9 May to 1 June, here are three underrated spots that bring serious flavour (and even better deals), perfect for when you’re craving something beyond the usual.

UNION BISTROT

A selection of beautifully plated dishes featuring various cuisines, including a soup, grilled meat, noodles, a salad, a slice of lasagna, and a drink, arranged artfully on elegant plates.

A calm respite in the heart of the buzz, Union Bistrot brings a European sensibility to the table — with an elegant high tea, beautifully plated desserts, and an after-work wine ritual that feels earned.

Their Weekend Sweet Delights offer is a chance to explore their pastry counter at a fraction of the price, while evenings bring a different charm: complimentary wine with mains above RM50 every Thursday and Friday. From the soft lighting to the refined yet relaxed menu, this is where you go when you’re in the mood to linger.

Don’t miss: their high tea promotion, available daily from 3PM to 6PM, now with 20% off.

Address: L1.46, The Exchange TRX Mall, Tun Razak Exchange, 55188 Kuala Lumpur

TUCKER & CO.

Tucker & Co brings a taste of modern Australian fare to the heart of TRX, built around the smoky soul of a Bertha grill. This is comfort food with quiet confidence — fire-grilled proteins, hearty mains, and no-nonsense portions that satisfy without trying too hard. It’s familiar, but far from forgettable.

For TRX Eats, they’re taking 10% off all Bertha-grilled items — the perfect excuse to try what they do best. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or settling in for a slower meal, Tucker & Co feels familiar in all the right ways.

LAS MENINAS

Tucked away on the Dining Terrace, Las Meninas is one of TRX’s best-kept secrets, serving up a generous tapas platter that’s made for sharing (or not). The TRX Eat Platter (RM99 for 2 pax) brings all the hits: crispy calamari with sriracha mayo, juicy pinchos, lamb meatballs, and a comforting veggie paella that tastes like something straight out of a home kitchen in Spain.

It’s the kind of meal that feels easy, relaxed, and a little indulgent, especially with a glass of wine in hand and nowhere to be.
