Kim Yang Lamb Cutlets (RM54++)
Kim’s favourite lamb cutlets is another fusion dish served together with Korean style. The lamb is coated in Korean spices, charbroiled to perfection and accompanied with the Korean kimchi as well.
Tod Man Kung (RM24)
This is one of the famous snack which you should not miss out in Sanook. Shrimp cakes are deep fried in thai style and served with sweet basil. Of course, this is definitely a must ordered snack when you are having your beers.
Tangier Moroccan Steak (RM42++ for 250g)
Sirlion steak in tangt apricot glaze, grilled to perfection and served with fresh homemade pita bread and garden salad.
Hawaii Chiken Pizza
The paper thin pizza is so good with the chunks of minced chicken, pineapple, tomato spread and cheese. Good for sharing without overloading your stomach space.

Excuse Me One Lagsana Please (RM22)
“Excuse Me..One Lagsana Please!” Did you ever think of naming your lagsana with such interesting sentence? Well, we were quite suprise having to know that Sanook has named their lagsana with this unique name. This is the home made chef’s special, delicious lagsana layered with crepes, lavished with bolongese sauce rich with cheese, zucchini foundae and cream cilantro. You can choose between the choice of beef or chicken.
Chocolate Mud Cake (RM16)
The meal was ended with their speciality desserts and one of it would be the Chocolate Mud Cake. The savory mud cake is served with haagen Dazs Vanilla Pecan ice cream on vanilla sauce.
