Chef Hana Lim
“Eleven years in Kyoto taught me restraint. Coming home taught me what to be restrained about.”
After more than a decade in Kyoto kaiseki kitchens, Chef Hana Lim returned to Kuala Lumpur to open a ten-seat counter built on a simple premise: the technique should be Japanese, and the produce should be home.
Meet the kitchen →“Nine courses that argue, quietly, that Kyoto technique and Malaysian produce were always meant to share a counter.”
The City Table
“Ten seats, one seating at a time, and a chef who plates like she is running out of things to prove.”
Palate Asia
“Kuala Lumpur's most disciplined new counter.”
