Located on the 48th floor of Naza Tower in Kuala Lumpur, “DEWAKAN” offers more than just a view - it’s a tribute to Malaysia’s rich bounty and indigenous traditions, reimagined through a modern lens🔍 The name, a fusion of the Malay words for “god” and “food,” reflects the restaurant’s philosophy: to honour the land and its people through thoughtful, locally rooted cuisine❤️‍🔥

Inspired by Malaysia’s national butterfly, “Rajah Brooke’s Birdwing” in the cover photo reinterprets local ingredients with elegance✨ The subtle bitterness of “Belinjau” paired with the crisp freshness of “Labu Siam” (chayote) and the sweet-tangy depth of “Keranji” fruit🍇 A thoughtful balance of texture and flavour, it’s a modern tribute to Malaysia’s natural heritage🌴

Boasting stunning views, and a well-informed staff, twelve courses come paired to housemade juices or fermentations with each sip and bite steeped in tradition. The recent recipient of it's second Michelin Star plus Green Star recognition this is story-teller cuisine with a purpose, from a Chef proud of his heritage and ingredients hardly ever seen in fine dining.

A quick trip to Kuala Lumpur allowed me to have a glimpse of the current food scene in the city. The restaurant that impressed me the most is Dewakan which you may have heard the name from Michelin or Asia’s 50 Best. But it was @kristianbaumann who has been telling me that I must visit Dewakan since before covid, I knew there must be something special about it.

Kristian was so right. This is not a modern Malaysian restaurant, a false label and categorisation much like calling Ikoyi... More

A quick trip to Kuala Lumpur allowed me to have a glimpse of the current food scene in the city. The restaurant that impressed me the most is Dewakan which you may have heard the name from Michelin or Asia’s 50 Best. But it was @kristianbaumann who has been telling me that I must visit Dewakan since before covid, I knew there must be something special about it.

Kristian was so right. This is not a modern Malaysian restaurant, a false label and categorisation much like calling Ikoyi as modern African cuisine.

While the extensive use of local or indigenous ingredients and spices coming from mountains, sea or jungles contributed to the backbone of Dewakan, Chef Darren has created his own original cuisine that gives you a completely different horizon with these elements. What I experienced in the meal was bold and fearless transformations of the fundamentals (some of which may not even be familiar to locals) into something truly unique to Dewakan.

Chef Darren is a pioneer in bringing Malaysian cuisine into modern gastronomy, the road must not be easy when he opened his restaurant 8 years ago. But he possesses incredible knowledge of not just the common but also rare and unusual ingredients gained from his childhood, coupled with sound cooking techniques, bringing you to the new world of Malaysian ingredients. His role in cultivating the next generation of chefs in Malaysian food scene is reflected in his young team which shows enormous enthusiasm, genuine hospitality and dedication (I could feel it when they presented the dishes to me). Darren is a true chef.

I won’t go through all the dishes, you can go over the pictures. It puzzled me while I was eating at Dewakan, why is it not more well-known because my meal here was better than many I had in London. It is so original.

If you cannot find food with these flavors in Malaysia or even in the world except in Dewakan, wouldn’t that already make it a destination restaurant because there is only one in the world? Less
