Sitting at a corner lot in Subang SS15 is Rendezvous Corner. Formerly known as ‘Salmon Steak’, the newly refurbished Rendezvous should be no stranger to enthusiastic foodies.
Satisfy your cheese cravings with a cheesy appetizer – their signature Cheesy Escargot or a plate of baked Potato Skin stuffed with overflowing mozzarella cheese. But you can do better than that – for main course savour a Fried Cheesy Chicken or a Cheese Fondue Chicken.
Getting there may be easy but if you are familiar with SS15, getting a parking spot after night falls can prove to be a pain in the neck. Protip: parking is aplenty in the Subang Square Business Park which is right opposite the restaurant.
