And everything we did was from the heart, with a great sense of pride and enthusiasm…and always, always with a smile,” said Ramesh Jackson, Area Vice President, Indonesia & Malaysia, Marriott International.

Malaysia welcomed almost 6 million foreign tourist arrivals into Q1 this year, a growth of 32.5% compared to last year. In 2025, 32 million tourists are forecasted to arrive, spurred by Malaysia’s chairmanship of ASEAN that will be held that year.

Returning for the second time after a successful inaugural year, the Ramadan buffet at Komune Living Bangsar South comes back with added flair. After delighting guests with a well-received buffet last year, the hotel is expanding its diverse spread with even more tempting dishes—all while maintaining its commitment to keeping prices pocket-friendly.
This year’s theme and menu is created by none other than the hotel’s outlet chef, Chef Muhammad Syah Osmat and is centered around the rich tapestry of authentic Malay cuisines. The spotlight shines on four exceptional dishes.
Starting off with the Ketam Goreng Masam Manis which are fresh crabs, cooked to perfection then coated with a flavourful sweet and sour sauce. This is followed by the Ikan Patin Tempoyak, a true Malay delicacy made from fresh fish and fermented durian sauce.
The next star is the flavourful Sup Tulang which is a comforting and nourishing dish, cooked with lots of aromatic spices and simmered for an extended period. The final must-try dish from this year’s buffet is the Grilled Lamb Shoulder that is marinated with a special homemade sauce then cooked ala-minute at the stall.
These four selections hold a special place in Chef Syah's heart as they are cherished recipes from his upbringing, dishes that echo the warmth of his family kitchen.
Rooted in culinary traditions passed down through generations, these recipes not only reflect the essence of his cultural heritage but also embody the artistry and love instilled in him by his family's cooking legacy.
The alfresco area should not be missed as it is where an enticing array of action stalls awaits. This year's exciting additions are the Char Kway Teow and Kebab Stalls, complementing the returning favourites of Chicken Wing, Satay, Roti John and Murtabak from the previous year.
Tony Ho, General Manager of Komune Living, expressed excitement about the second annual Ramadan Buffet, stating, 'We are proud to present a feast that not only celebrates the rich tapestry of Malay cuisines but also emphasises our commitment to providing an accessible dining experience for our community. This year's buffet is a perfect blend of authenticity, variety, and affordability.”
Normal prices for the buffet are set at RM88+ for adults, RM68+ for children and senior citizens. To reward early enthusiasts, an exclusive offer of RM78+ will be extended to adults during the early bird sale period, commencing from now to 12th March 2024.
Ramadan Classic D’Kerinchi will be available from 13 March till 8 April 2024, between 6.30pm to 10.00pm at Komune Café, Level G.
