A Season of Shared Beginnings
JEMPUT MAKAN AT SUNWAY RESORT HOTEL
As the crescent moon rises to signal the beginning of the holy month, Sunway Resort Hotel invites guests to immerse themselves in a profound journey of heritage and heart through its latest culinary chapter, Jemput Makan. This evocative celebration follows the opening movement of the Roots of Reunion campaign, which earlier in the year brought together the vibrant traditions of Chinese New Year and Ramadan in a singular message of unity.
Now, as the season progresses, the focus turns inward to the soul of Malay culture, exploring the very foundations where our personal traditions were first forged and where the true meaning of togetherness began. Hosted at the elegant Sunset Terrace, Jemput Makan is more than a festive offering, inviting guests to savour the warmth and comfort of home cooked meals shared together.
The essence of the experience is deeply rooted in traditional Malay kampung inspired flavours, yet it is elevated through a thoughtful presentation that celebrates the sheer abundance of the Malaysian table. This is a space where diversity is welcomed and the act of breaking fast becomes a meaningful moment of reunion for families and friends alike.
The spread itself is a masterpiece of culinary storytelling, featuring an impressive array of eight distinct varieties of Kerabu alongside the vibrant and fragrant Nasi Kerabu. Diners can explore the robust and spicy notes of Ayam Percik or the succulent Daging Harimau Menangis, while also indulging in the nostalgic comforts of Nasi Kandar Penang. Traditional staples that define the festive season, such as Ketupat, Lemang, and Satay Padang, are presented with pride, ensuring that every bite feels like a return to one’s roots.
Adding a dynamic layer to the evening are the outdoor live stations that bring the theatre of the kitchen to the forefront of the dining experience. A highlight is the Kampung Nelayan station, dedicated to Ikan Bakar and inspired by rustic coastal fishing villages.
Here, an array of fresh seafood is beautifully displayed in a traditional sampan, allowing guests to select their preferred catch to be grilled live over the flames. For those seeking a more indulgent feast, the Sichuan Roasted Whole Lamb served with aromatic ghee rice provides a stunning centrepiece that bridges traditional techniques with bold, festive flavours. To finish on a sweet note, the cooling textures of Cendol and the crunchy delight of Passembur offer the perfect conclusion to a rich and varied meal.
The atmosphere is further enhanced by the presence of a live band performing throughout the evening, providing a melodic backdrop that encourages guests to linger over their coffee and conversation long after the sun has set. This immersive experience is available as the Ramadan Iftar Buffet from 23 February to 19 March 2026, running daily from 6:30pm to 10:30pm. The pricing is set at MYR 228.00 plus per adult and MYR 114.00 plus per child and senior citizen.
For those looking to extend the celebrations into the festive weekend, the Hari Raya Brunch Buffet will be available from 20 March to 22 March 2026, served from 12:00pm to 4:00pm at MYR 208.00 plus per adult and MYR 104.00 plus per child and senior citizen. At its core, Jemput Makan reminds us that regardless of the season or the setting, the most significant reunions always begin at the table, where shared food and shared stories bring us closer together.
