Richard Rivalee

The Richard Rivalee Restaurant in MacAlister Lane is expanding right across the road to new premises. We went there today with the monks from Nandaka Vihara Meditation Centre who were invited by the owner, Richard, to perform chanting at the soft launch of his business there. 

Like the present outlet along the road, this new restaurant is very tastefully decorated. We were thrilled to explore the place which had such exquisite dining areas on the top floor. Each room is lavishly designed and diners can feel the warmth of the space. The room alloted to us made us feel completely at ease, quite at home in such surroundings. 

I can't wait before he opens this extension of his business to the public. In the coming months there will be more additions to Richard's establishment. He is also leasing three other shophouses adjoining this one and once renovation is completed next year, his restaurant should boast of a grand facade to go with his delicious nyonya fare.  

But first, here are some sneak peeks into the place. PS The food was fantabulous.
