Newly launched in December 2021, the four-week-old Food District revitalises the shopping mall's food hall experience, bringing favourite flavours to a vibrant setting in 1 Utama.
It's a one-stop destination for everything from crave-worthy Malaysian rice platters to comforting Asian noodle bowls, Japanese teppanyaki to Italian pasta and even artisanal coffee, served in a strikingly designed space that's photogenic from many corners, suitable for everyone since it's pork-free, lard-free and alcohol-free.
Even after lunchtime on a weekday afternoon, Food District remains bustling with customers enjoying this cheerful, colourful space. No worries though - there's plenty of space; we like how there's lots of natural light flowing into this hall, including sections with a soothing view of natural greenery.
