Shepherds of Meaning
If the restaurant is a performance, then the diner is the centre stage, and the kitchen is the backstage. Most people see food presented in a glamorous and sophisticated outlook - not without justification, as the top Michelin Star restaurants are often designed purposely to bedazzle and draw attention away from what's happening behind the scenes.
Chef Darren's vision for Dewakan is to create a nostalgic, down to earth connection to the fine-dining restaurant. Most importantly, he wants to showcase the cooking, preparation process of the food to be part of dining process. Inspired by the challenge, the team is set to create an aethetic kitchen that is both beautiful in form and function.
