Palillos Bar Kuala Lumpur specialises in Japanese yakitori with a Spanish flair as well as a wide range of cocktails, sakes, and Spanish wines. Located above Pinchos Tapas Bar within Changkat Bukit Bintang, its interior is kept simple with wooden fixtures, warm lighting, Japanese-style screen panels, a bar-facing communal table, cushioned high chairs, and several tables for diners who prefer privacy.
To keep things relatively authentic, the yakitori is made using traditional Japanese-style skewers over a binchotan (white charcoal) grill, resulting in a distinctive smoky yet succulent flavour. Its menu is undeniably extensive, from Spanish quail (RM9), Iberico pork belly (RM7) and suckling lamb chops with rosemary (RM15) to Japanese oysters wrapped in pork belly (RM10), squid with shiso leaves (RM7) and dates and blue cheese (RM9).
