S2E7: From Modern French to Contemporary Malaysian Cuisine, and Finding Roots in Malaysia

On this week's show, we have Aidan Low, the head chef and co-owner at Akar restaurant in TTDI. Aidan earned his cooking stripes in France and Japan, and started his restaurant right before the pandemic, serving his brand of modern French cuisine. Since then, the look and flavour of his food has progressed and evolved, incorporating more Malaysian and Asian influences throughout his menu. So on today’s episode, we’ll hear about Aidan’s story, get an insider’s look at the industry, and hear about the evolution of Akar.
