On The Menu
Chef André Chiang and his team create dishes that make fine dining a highlight of your journey.  Anticipate a taste of the region's diversity and a kaleidoscope of culinary cultures. Feast on Laksa Bouillabaisse, inspired by the traditional aromatic noodle soup of the Peranakan cuisine, or taste a flavoursome “nine peppers jus” sixteen-hour-braised beef cheek. Finish on a high note with a Jungle Spices Cacao Ganache, a journey through the region’s local spices.

Cocktails On The Rails
Toast the evening with a punchy, distinctive Hills of Perlis or close the day with a warm Royal Nightcap. Our signature drinks, inspired by the surrounding vibrant cities and landscapes, blend vintage glamour with modern mixology to create a unique drinking experience — the perfect tipple to pair with André Chiang’s distinctive menus and the best of Malaysian cuisine.

Peranakan Cooking Class
Peranakan – or Nyonya – dishes reside amongst Southeast Asia’s most popular cuisine. A subtle blend of Malay and Chinese recipes, the fusion of the two retraces the rich culinary heritage of Malaysia. Learn the rudiments of a Tok Panjang, the traditional feast, or taste the tangy flavours, herbs and spices of an Assam Laksa. This is Peranakan’s cuisine at its finest.

DIOR SPA

Beauty rituals on the move
Offering a sanctuary of tranquillity, the opulent Dior Spa Eastern & Oriental Express occupies one of the train’s 16 carriages. Onboard, two treatment cabins await, adorned in the iconic Toile de Jouy motif — Christian Dior's favourite emblem — and breathtaking hand-crafted tropical wood materials, a true reflection of Southeast Asia’s incomparable beauty.
