Since he was making one of his favourite meals for his KL guests, he shared with Tatler some his most memorable meals.
The most memorable meal he ever prepared
"When I cooked for the late Princess Diana in London. We closed our restaurant during lunch hours for her. She drove herself to the restaurant. When I greeted her, she said to me: 'Chef Nobu, I've read about your story. I was so impressed!' She was so happy with my food.
A couple weeks later, I went back to New York. That's when I heard the sad news about her tragic car accident. That's why that meal is the most memorable that I've ever cooked. I can still remember her smiling face and the way she enjoyed the food I made for her."
