Harummanis

Riding on the Malay fine dining renaissance is Harummanis, helmed by chef Akmal Anuar, previously of one-Michelin-starred 11 Woodfire. The restaurant is Anuar’s revival of his parents’ hawker stall on Teck Whye Lane opened in 1992, with a modern twist on Malay food. For the full experience, head down for the dinner tasting menu, where you get to taste Anuar’s contemporary renditions of dishes like ikan sebelah (sole fish) marinated with tiger’s milk and wing beans, lamb chops with spicy kicap (sweet soy sauce) and udang galah (giant freshwater prawn) infused with curry leaves, garlic, and three peppercorns.
