This Holy Month, come together in love and gratitude at Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur. Diners are invited to take a trip down memory lane with a feast curated by Malaysia’s favourite culinary celebrity, Chef Dato’ Fazley Yaakob. From April 24 to May 23, Sajian Merentasi Zaman (food across generations) will feature beloved recipes from Chef’s childhood days, offering a precious opportunity for the whole family to reconnect. Dust off old memories and share stories as you rediscover long-forgotten tastes, and introduce the younger generation to Malaysia’s secret culinary heritage.
Four Seasons celebrates the true spirit of the season by nurturing togetherness. “In a world where everyone is busy and caught up in their own lives, we understand the value of spending time with those who matter most – that is real luxury,” notes Vinod Narayan, Hotel Manager. “Our team is creating meaningful moments through thoughtful menus and caring service, bringing people together naturally.”
Drawing on a treasure trove of family recipes, Chef Dato’ Fazley recreates Malaysian dishes that have been lost in the mists of time and are rarely found on restaurant menus. Sample delights such as Nasi Tumpang Ayam Bakar Pasu (rice layered with different dishes, served on banana leaves), Puyuh Salai & Kulit Rambai (smoked pigeon with Rambai) and Urap Daun Kaduk & Telur Masin (kaduk leaves & salted egg). Each dish is prepared using healthy cooking techniques, so diners can forget about counting calories.
End the meal on a sweet note with an array of desserts, including crowd-pleasers like Serabai with Gula Melaka (local pancakes with palm sugar syrup), Penjan Ubi Kayu & Pisang (tapioca and banana), and Lempeng Kelapa (coconut crepes).
Along with herbs and spices, Chef Dato’ Fazley seasons his dishes with a liberal sprinkling of gratitude and joyfulness. “For me, cooking is an act of love that’s passed down from generation to generation. My grandmother was the heart of our family, her food brought the whole family together,” he recalls fondly. “Nothing unites us Malaysians more than our shared culinary heritage – I’m so thankful that my job allows me to evoke that wonderful sense of belonging and togetherness.”
Sajian Merentasi Zaman will be hosted in the warm and welcoming ambiance of Curate. Local childhood snacks take guests back in time to simpler, carefree days, while live cooking stations add a welcome buzz: watch Four Seasons chefs led by Executive Chef Junious Dickerson in action and savour smoked delicacies such as crab, prawns and split gill mushrooms. Each table will also receive a bottle of homemade sambal, compliments of Chef Dato’ Fazley.
Sajian Merentasi Zaman is available from April 24 to May 23, 2020 at Curate.
