In the last ten years, Jalan Mesui has become one of the most popular streets in Kuala Lumpur. This little alley houses a set of restaurants and bars with a lot of character and affection for design, where in addition to local cuisine we can find Peruvian, Korean, Indian or Japanese food.

​Shirley Khoo and Roberto Solanes have spent years touring every corner of the land of the rising sun and after a long period managing "Pinchos", perhaps the most famous Spanish restaurant in Malaysia, they decide to create a fusion of Japanese and Spanish cultures, take it to the kitchen and create Palillos.

A window in a green wall reveals what is happening inside Palillos, creates curiosity, allows you to see enough to create a claim without depriving of the privacy that customers need. A Japanese oasis within Southeast Asia.

​The design tries to respect the purest Japanese style, create a warm and cozy environment, where wood plays the leading role over the rest of the materials.
