Love salted egg yolk? Located in Publika, MONA, the sister restaurant of the famous JIBRIL in Subang Jaya, brings all things salted egg yolk to the folks of Kuala Lumpur.

This chic retro-Malayan restaurant gets its name from the character whom Lisa Surihani plays from the JIBRIL TV series, which founder Imran Sheik created and wrote. The golden era of Malay movies is celebrated here with P Ramlee movies playing on the screen.


The famous butter chicken from Subang Jaya has landed in Kuala Lumpur!



The bestselling item here at MONA is the Salted egg butter chicken (RM17.90) - which was first created in 2015 at JIBRIL. The chicken pieces are coated in batter, deep fried and then coated in a rich, thick salted egg butter sauce. The salted egg flavour is unmistakable and will certainly delight the salted egg lover in you.  This is served with white rice, lettuce and extra sauce on the side.




Malaysia's national dish, nasi lemak gets paired up with their bestselling item and the result is delicious. Served on banana leaf, the rice was fragrant and rich from the coconut milk, and is accompanied by a sweet-spicy sambal, peanuts, ikan bilis, boiled egg and a serving of the salted egg butter chicken with a twist. Sambal is added to the salted egg butter chicken to give it a spicy kick, hence the salted egg flavours are not so pronounced in this one.. still very tasty though.

Nasi lemak butter chicken (RM19.90)


Other salted egg dishes you can find on the menu are salted egg chicken wings, salted egg fried calamari, salted egg butter squid, and salted egg croissant (RM9.90). We loved the croissant - once you bite into it, the centre reveals a rich, salted egg lava sauce just like a "lau sah pau" (salted egg yolk custard bun). Must-try, good with a cuppa coffee!



We also tried a couple of non-salted egg yolk dishes such as the Saloma Steak (RM49.90) and Seafood marinara pasta (RM18.90). Named after the late P Ramlee's wife, Saloma, we had the striploin which was nicely cooked to medium doneness. If you'd like a more tender, flavorful cut, go for the rib eye (+RM10). For the sides, you can choose mash, fries or truffle fries.




We liked the Oriental duck egg noodles (RM17.90) which is inspired by Malaysian's favorite maggi goreng. Served in a cute takeaway box, the noodles were addictively spicy, topped with tender slices of smoked duck.





Unlike JIBRIL which is Halal, this outlet is pork-free but serves alcohol. The Cendol Colada (RM22) was excellent, made with Kahlua, Malibu, pineapple and a cendol base.


Non-alcoholic drinks are available too.
