Where to go in KL on NYE 2018 for food, drinks and fireworks

You’re all set for Christmas (did you opt for buffet, eat-in with one of these turkey takeaways or one of these Christmas special menus?)! Next, it’s time to plan New Year’s Eve. Instead of roughing it out at one of the hot countdown spots in KL, why not party it out instead with awesome drinks, beats and a sure-fire view of the fireworks? Alternatively, we’ve thrown in a spot of two that’s on the lower decibel side.

 

1. Crystal & Pool Side at The St. Regis Kuala Lumpur
