History and heritage meet living room chic and elevated modern Asian cuisine at Jiak Kim House, a brand new concept by The Brewerkz Group.
At Jiak Kim House, more than a restaurant, they tell stories that intertwine the rich tapestry of the past with the innovation of the present. From the ambiance to the cuisine, every element has a story to tell. The restaurant sits within Frasers Property’s shiny new integrated precinct but gives a nod to its heritage in its modern design. Keep an eye out for the scallop-shaped “pediment” at the entrance of the building facade. The 120-seater also retains the original timbre trusses, which means the height of its ceiling is impressively staggering.
Step in and you’ll be greeted by black and white floor tiles, custom-made rattan furnishing, and a wall featuring scenes from the Singapore River. Plush banquette seating, louvered panels and coconut husk walls feature in the main dining room, while the wine vault walkway leads you into a private dining room that offers a peek at the river behind.
A celebration of East and West, Jiak Kim House isn’t just influenced by the history of its location in its design. Chef-partner Seow Tzi Qin (otherwise known as chef TQ) also takes inspiration from that in his modern Asian menu. The affable chef clearly exudes passion and excitement for the restaurant, whipping up a menu that uplifts the flavours of Southeast Asian cuisine.
