S2E8: Dewakan, Indigenous Ingredients, and the True Cost of Dining

On this week's show, we have Darren Teoh, who’s perhaps the most well-known figurehead driving forward Malaysian fine dining on the world’s culinary stage. His restaurant, Dewakan, has appeared in Asia’s 50 and 100 Best Restaurant list multiple times, and has left an indelible mark on Malaysia's dining scene, and continues to do so. So on this episode, we’ll find out about the growth and evolution of Dewakan, explore some local ingredients, and hear about Darren's perspective on Malaysia’s dining scene.
