The beauty of our country is captured in this verse:
Malaya in all her glory,
The vast fields are elegant,
And the shadows of coconut trees embellish the cape,
What a painterly spectacle.
The land on which we stand, was once known as Malaya. This was before Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia merged to form the Malaysia we know today. She was – and still is – a multi-faceted and liberal realm, teeming with rich culture and delicious food.
Ancient Greek, Roman and Srivijayan civilisations referred to the Malay Peninsula as the Golden Peninsula. Blessed with a tropical climate, abundant rainfall and sun give life to the rainforest and its fauna. The Malaya Garden’s interior has been designed to reflect the richness of lush tropical greenery.
Against this backdrop, modest and diligent multi-cultural Malayans live harmoniously and interact freely. A unique social tapestry takes shape as a result, bringing together a truly eclecticgastronomic scene that is worth celebrating.
Malaya Garden believes that local is the new luxury. Here, local delicacies are brought to new heights with modern techniques and creative spins. Even everyday breakfast staples such as kaya butter toasts, soft-boiled eggs and coffee receive a new lease of life.
Our house blends consist of premium Arabica, Robusta and Liberica coffee beans. They are filler- and additive-free, except for a touch of Himalayan salt for added depth. Two roast profiles are available: Malaya Blend is medium while Nusantara Blend is medium dark. Whether enjoyed hot or iced or black or au lait, they are the perfect accompaniment to our homemade breads.
A must-try is our Signature Coconut Bread Loaf, made with fresh coconut milk via the tangzhong method. Fluffiness and captivating aromas are guaranteed in every bite. The flavours of coconut are amplified with a good slather of silky kaya, prepared fresh daily using traditional ways. The soft-boiled eggs? Well, they are full of surprises, too.
But enough talking. Welcome to our home in the gardens of the Malay Peninsula – the Malaya Garden and experience for yourself the culinary adventure we have on offer.
When the night falls, KeAtas comes to life on the upper floors of Malaya Garden. Enjoy the evening with a never-before-seen style of Locavore dining, while you dig into dishes made from in-season ingredients crafted by Chef Chai and sip on zero-proof cocktails devised by mixologist Zeehan Zahari.
