This month sees The Bee in Publika handing their kitchen reins to The World Is Flat, the Singaporean team behind a reputable repertoire of restaurants across the straits. Easy eats like sandwiches, pizzas and pastas helm this menu to suit the crowd who often come for the venue's live music gigs. On regular days, the value-for-money lunch sets are what to come for. Go for the Pizza Lunch Set (RM25) that comes with your choice of personal-sized pizza, Spam fries (yes!) and a drink. The meat-free Garden State is a surprising winner, melding roasted beetroot with a rich but not cloying four-cheese combo on savoury charcoal crust. If you're not for getting your hands dirty at lunch, stick with the pastas. The Pasta Lunch Set (RM30) includes the option for a delicious Truffle Duck Confit, which sees a whole duck leg confit on charcoal pasta tossed with white truffled mushrooms. Mop up any leftover truffle sauce with the side of garlic bread. Those who love okonomiyaki, skip the sets for an a la carte order of Fat Samurai (from RM42), their unique, umami-packed deep dish rendition.
