Unpretentious good food at this French modern bistro tucked away in TTDI. Let the food speak for itself @topshelf_kl offers casual dining & the food here pays homage to modern French cooking.
What I’ve tried:
*Spanish Pork Belly RM49 (2nd Pic)
-Saffron Risotto, Bacon & Gremolata (a green sauce made of chopped parsley, lemon zest & garlic). The absolutely tender pork belly definitely complemented well with the deliciously simple saffron risotto. You would be able to witness the perfect marriage on this plate - The tender pork belly, zesty Gremolate & the plump & al dente center of Risotto, well thought out and executed for sure.
Another favourite of mine here was the
*Mushroom Orzo Pasta RM 36
-Marinated mushrooms, bacon & truffle egg. Orzo is a small flat oval-shaped pasta that requires very little time to cook. It’s not rice but it's a small, rice-shaped pasta. It feels like you are eating rice but no you are not because you are able to taste that ‘al dente’ texture. With the added tasty crispy bacon pieces, this creamy orzo is definitely a must-try here. Really difficult to describe the overall flavour profiles but if you are a fan of mushrooms, bacon and creamy pastas, this is not to be missed.
What we had as starters:
Moules Mariniere RM39
My very first ‘good’ mussels experience was in Brussels. The whole Moules Frittes, you either love them or no. But oh well I’d eaten mussels in Brussels and finished off the plate of fries. Now, I’m here eating this Moules Mariniere with white wine, shallots and fresh herbs. The mussels from Topshelf were tender, and to pair it with toasted bread - it’s definitely the ultimate combo. Make sure to have it with bread and soak up all the scrumptious sauce. Would reorder when I visit again.
Liver Pate & Toast RM25
-Chicken Liver, Olive Tapenade & Toast
Just make sure to paté-up your toast repetitively before each bite :)
Escargot
-Baked French Snails in Pesto, Garlic & Butter.
Snails/escargots are one of those delicacies that people either love, adore or simply do not like. It’s your choice but for me - it’s something that I am ok to leave out in my order when I make a trip to Topshelf next time.

Beef cheek is one my of my fav cuts of beef. I love the tender juiciness and visceral melty soft tissue. Super love the beefy sweetness in the thick chunk of meat stewed with red wine sauce.

Sharing my recipe on IGTV since most of you haven’t seen the full YouTube video & it’s important for me to keep spreading the food I grew up on!
The irony is that while editing this, I was reckoning with the fact that I’m generally not considered “Filipino” by those in the Philippines even though I’m so proud of my heritage 😕
I was just called an entitled “pseudo-Filipino” in the comments of the last post by @barkadadc, a white-owned wine bar that got backlash for naming itself Barkada, a meaningful Tagalog word for deep friendship. They were serving wine & charcuterie instead of any Filipino items with no intention of promoting Filipino culture beyond their name. In their words to @eater_dc, they “didn’t want to call it posse or homies or clique” so they went with Barkada because “it helped that bar is in the word” 🤨
Countless Filipino-Americans (Fil-Ams) pressured them to agree to change their name (though that name change has yet to happen 🧐). I personally saw it as stealing a great name from a potential business that would actually promote Filipino culture, like @barkadahollywood has done in LA. But Filipinos largely condoned keeping the name, calling Fil-Ams overly sensitive and touting that they’re “proud” to see non-Filipinos “spreading our culture” even though this business was NOT actually doing so with their $17 glasses of Spanish wine and cheese plates. They were appropriating, not appreciating.
I got into debates (and welcome more below) because I couldn’t understand why Filipinos were so adamantly defending white men appropriating our language when they could instead support the name change, which would open the door for a Barkada DC that HONORS our culture. So consider this a call to my fellow Fil-Ams in the DC area to capitalize on this media hype and open the Barkada DC the community deserves 🙏🏽
Filipino food is not that widespread. We still have a chance to open authentic places to educate people before our cuisine gets bastardized the way others have. I know I’m going to keep doing my part to share the food I grew up on, and I hope you all try out a recipe yourself to learn to love it too ❤️
