At Tavern Kitchen & Bar, we have some delectable western chicken dishes for you to sample. Made with the freshest ingredients from Pasar Besar Kota Kinabalu daily, they will delight foodies and gourmets from near and far.
Chicken Pie a la Tavern
Firstly, if you love pie but don’t like the gooey mess it can disintegrate into as the meal progresses, you must try our Chicken Pie ala Tavern. It is a deconstructed chicken pie ̶ the luscious pie filling, made from generous portions of chicken, mushrooms, onions and potatoes, is served in a bowl, with the light, flaky puff pastry on the side. It comes with a refreshing leafy green salad tossed with a light dressing.
If you adore rolls, you will love our mouthwatering Chicken Balontine, a chicken roll with a twist. Instead of wrapping all the ingredients in a spring roll wrapper, our sautéed mushrooms are rolled in lean chicken breast meat and cooked to perfection. This dish is served with sautéed fresh vegetables. Great for a healthy meal. A ballontine is traditionally made with a boned part of chicken, duck or other poultry, stuff with assorted ingredients and then tied up to hold its log shape. It is cooked by either roasting, braising or poaching.

For guests who want to eat extra-healthy, the Grilled Chicken Salad is the dish for you. Fresh assorted salad leaves are served with juicy grilled chicken and drizzled with Tavern’s special pesto, which is made from a unique blend of bunga kantan (the flower of the torch ginger plant), lemongrass, garlic and toasted nuts. You will surely enjoy the melding of the local flavours from the aromatic bunga kantan and fragrant lemongrass, pungent garlic and the rich, delicate flavour of the nuts.
We love experimenting with local ingredients and traditional food, such as tuhau, hinava and buah terap, in our beloved Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, to bring you the best of east meets west, local delights, western favourites, and some innovative creations as well. Come around to Tavern Kitchen & Bar today to sample our dishes and drinks. You will be pleasantly surprised at what we have to offer.
