The Embun is the latest halal spot on the scene, with an aesthetic and sophisticated garden-inspired vibe surrounded by lush greenery. You can choose to dine outdoors under umbrellas, or in the comfort of the indoors for a more cosy ambience. The highlight here is definitely the fresh, live-caught seafood: which you can browse from their clear displays.

You can select the seafood you want from a selection of various fish, prawns, squid, shellfish, stingray and more; and the restaurant will cook it for you on the spot, old school-style, over flaming charcoal for that smoky flavour. You can even choose how you would like the dish to be cooked: Sambal, Salt & Pepper, Belado Merah or Butter Garlic.
