The Genting Highlands is truly a place of excitement and fun, whether it be theme park hopping or casino all-or-nothings, the Genting is undeniably a fun-filled roller coaster ride for people of all ages. Staying here is also a dream, with world class hotels and many facilities to fully sooth and ease you into your vacation. When in Genting, however, we often find ourselves unable to choose where to have meals, as the overabundance of restaurants and cafes can make picking one a challenge in of itself. Fret not, as SGMYTRIPS brings to you our list of top recommended Genting Highland Food.
Every list of Genting Highland Food must include this restaurant, Burger & Lobster.
Claiming to serve ‘wild, fresh Atlantic lobsters’, this international seafood restaurant has been to many different parts of the globe, and this is their first venture into the Malaysian market. Located at the SkyAvenue, some 1,800 metres above sea level, this particular outlet is the first one to open in the entirety of Southeast Asia, and serves a menu akin to the lofty standards set by their original venue.
The spotlight here shines on their signature lobsters, and since we’re in the Genting outlet, why not go for their exclusive Chili Lobster? This dish is served as a special here, with well cooked, tender lobster and a tantalizing chili gravy.
A special shout out also goes to their Classic Lobster Roll, so go order one on the side and be prepared to have your socks blown right off.

The place is usually jam-packed, so be sure to come early and even then get ready to face a queue of some sort.
The ordering method doesn’t vary from other Korean barbeques, as the formula stays pretty much the same.
