The Complete Residents' Guide KUALA LUMPUR (Explorer Publishing 2008)

This vibrant restaurant has a unique concept and diners could be mistaken for thinking they were in an Italian trattoria or corner store.

Every inch of wall space is taken up with shelves of Italian produce like olive oils, pastas, herbs and an enticing selection of Italian wines. At the far end display fridges are full of pastries, cheeses. sausages and hams.

The restaurant is non-haIal and a speciality item is whole roasted suckling pig, although this must be ordered two days in advance. The sit-up bar is popular for those seeking coffee, grappa or some reading space.

With floor-to-ceiling shelves stocked with Italian kitchen staples and the widest selection of Italian wines in Kuala Lumpur, a deli case bursting with Italian meats and cheeses, and a sweet little bar fronting an authentically macho espresso machine, Neroteca is the closest thing to an enoteca this side of Florence.

Timeout Kuala Lumpur 2008

It's easy to feel a sense of dislocation on entering Nero Teca. This narrow space offers an instant tix of traditional italian enoteca - warm timber flooring, smoked sausages hanging from ceiling hooks and an entire wall filled with bottles of tomato sauce, olives, artichokes and tartufo. The place is packed at the weekends, so book early for a taste of its ciabatta filled with grilled sausage, stewed onions and fontina or grilled smoked scamorza.

The owners are also behind Nero vivo nearby. Both places have excellent wine lists, dominated by italian vintages. but it is the smaller Nero Teca that stakes the more adventurous culinary ground.

The NERO Group

The Nero Group has grown into one of the most recognised and well respected restaurant groups in Malaysia, known for professionalism, high standards and exceptional quality. The group currently consists of three restaurants. Nerovivo is perhaps the best known, celebrating its sixth anniversary this year. Nerovivo is freshly remodelled, featuring a wood-fired grill and pizza oven, large al fresco deck, bold artwork and offers consistently high quality food and impeccable service. Neroteca is our non-halal restaurant, specialising in Italian dishes with pork - a long, tall, narrow glass box, bright lights, wall-to-wall wine, pasta and sauces, with hanging salamis and hams. We import meats and cheeses from Italy every week. Nerofico in Damansara Heights, combines trademark Nero Italian food with music - it is now one of the city's best live jazz venues.

Towards the end of 2010, management of the Nero Group was moved to The Island Group Hospitality Ltd., a Hong Kong-based hospitality management company with extensive experience in restaurant and hospitality leadership.The Nero Group continues to thrive, and with its passion for excellent food and wine and dedication to providing a remarkable dining experience, remains a dynamic force on the KL restaurant scene.
