The place is spacious, comfy and relaxing, and you can choose to dine comfortably in indoor which is air conditioned, or outdoor with cooling breeze caressing your cheeks.
Though the varieties in the menu are already the best, the chef in Sanook has taken some effort to create some new dishes into the menu. What makes the new dishes special are, these brand new menu focus on Fusion food combining the complex and delicate tastes of Asia with the wholesome robust flavors of the West.

Moogus Salad (RM23)
We loved this Moogus Salad, which has grilled sirloin beef tossed in asparagus, wild rocket, roasted red capsium and special house dressing. Drizzled with parmesan cheese powder to enhance the flavour. A healthy and wholesome flavour for those who want to keep their meal simple and light.

A generous 250g prime cuts of beef rib-eye coated with chef’s special mix of garam masala, grilled to perfection and accompanied with vegetable kebabs. A flavour from the West and Middle East that turn out to be successful.
