Chiefeater Tai Kwee Fatt bought some Putu Piring from the Putu Piring Tradisional Bukit Beruang roadside stall
Dinner at Dewakan in August 2022 opened my eyes to why it was voted into Asia’s Top 50 restaurants. This was before they were announced as a Michelin 1 star recipient. Their use of local and regional ingredients made the meal unique.
The dining experience at Dewakan starts with a kitchen tour. Chef Ling took us through the ingredients that were being used for the dinner. I’ll admit that I didn’t even know about some of the items that they used to make the meal like the buah perah and the buah kulim.
First time coming up close to a Buah Kulim. Who would have known that this our local version of truffle aroma.
I had originally posted about it on Facebook before Chiefeater.com had started. So that's why it's taken more than 5 months for it to come up here. The view from the restaurant was amazing. The pictures below of the KL skyline will do the talking.
Every dish that we had at Dewakan came from all over Malaysia. It was like having a tour of Malaysia and part of the Nusantara through our palettes. The flowers were a revelation and even the Noni fruit’s blue cheese like flavour was used to make a dish that was a fitting end to the night. From start to finish, the experience took about 2 and a half hours. Be prepared to enjoy your dinner slowly here. Savour the pairing of the wine or the drinks with the food.
Octopus, Breadfruit. They used breadfruit flour to make a tortilla that accompanied the octopus.
Mackerel, Quinine and Flowers
Grilled Mussels, Pisang Abu, Tapai Ubi
Cold Soup of Clams
Weeds & Ice. Yes, we ate weeds.
Venison
Beras Rumie Cake, Painted Crayfish, Cempedak Sauce
Buah Perah and Water Chestnuts
One of the non-alcoholic drinks that were paired with the food.
Aerated Chocolate, Mushroom. The chocolate beans were of course, locally sourced.
Ciku Ice Cream, Fermented Corn
Kuih Bakar, Steamed Tapioca, Binjai Curd
Noni Fudge (that's the item in background)
Personally, I think they are a fitting winner of a Michelin Star. The effort that they are putting in to elevate local ingredients and cooking methods is remarkable.
The 12 course meal together with the wine pairing came up to over RM696++ per person. The 4 glass wine pairing option was RM287++ per person while the non-alcoholic pairing was RM156++ per person. The bill is given in a thick heavy grained paper envelope for you to keep as a souvenir.
