The wait is finally over—Black Tap Craft Burgers & Shakes has opened its first outlet in the country at Sunway Resort Hotel. Bringing a casual vibe reminiscent of a classic American luncheonette infused with that New York edge to our food scene, the award-winning restaurant brand eyes to attract local foodies who crave authentic American comfort food.
Its array of scrumptious dishes includes the must-try Black Tap Burgers, from the supersized Texan Burger to the luxurious Greg Norman Burger with wagyu beef, house buttermilk-dill, blue cheese, arugula, and a soft potato bun. But if you’re looking to walk on the wild side, try one of the restaurant-exclusive menu items. The Percik Grilled Chicken Sandwich is especially irresistible.
For the ultimate Black Tap experience, pair the burgers with the signature CrazyShake milkshakes. These sinful desserts come buried under a pile of sweet treats and toppings. The vanilla Cookie Shake is highly recommended as it is topped with crumbled cookies, chocolate chips, whipped cream and chocolate drizzle, giving it a pleasant clash of textures from the first sip.
Those who are without a sweet tooth need not worry. The restaurant offers some of the best craft beers in the world like Brewdog Punk IPA, Hitachino White Ale, Tropical Via, 1842 Island IPA, and Brooklyn Lager. There is also a range of plant-based plates including the Vegan Black ‘N White CakeShake awaits the more mindful diners.
A dining hotspot in the making, the 165-seat space boasts a décor fit for the ‘Gram. From the nostalgia-imbued mural by street artist Kenji Chai on the restaurant’s façade to the art-covered walls and stunning outdoor patio, Black Tap promises a feast for the eyes as well as the stomach, delivering an all-around gastronomic experience.
But if more convincing is needed, just take a cue from these KL elites who were all in attendance for the restaurant’s opening party.
