The Gasket Alley
We know you might be hangry by now. There are a few things to try here!
The Gasket Alley’s industrial interior is pretty impressive! The space is open to be rented out for private events, product launches, etc.
Those of you who have frequented RIUH since 2018, you might be familiar with this space!
RIUH has had a total of 3 events here. One of our most notable RIUH events at Gasket Alley was Panggung RIUH back in July 2019, a mini art festival with pocketfuls of performing arts, music and visual art showcases!
For matcha fans out there, Hejau’s polo buns are a must-try! 🍵 😍
Just opposite sits a tiny shop with an extensive menu - Coffeeboy Club serves up some good grub - burgers, pastas and tacos!

Suma Orientalis (@sumaorientalis)
The beautiful name also comes with a beautiful meaning - Suma Orientalis is an amalgamation of two words. ‘Suma’ refers to a flower in Sanskrit and ‘Orientalis’ means ‘Land of the East’ in Latin. Hence, the name is taken to mean ‘Flowers from the East’.
This home gallery is nestled in a neighbourhood area, away from all the road noises. Ideal for a calm and casual evening to enjoy artworks. Passionate about Asians craftsmanship, from fine art to historical collectibles, Suma Orientalis brings in local and international artists within South East Asia for all of us to learn and be inspired.
🚨 New exhibition, We Need No Superheroes by Syukur Rani happening 10 - 24 April 2021.

11, Lorong 11/4f, Seksyen 11 Petaling Jaya, 46200 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
