We pride ourselves as a Malaysian brand who is passionate about what we do and we love reaching out to other local brands in the community who share this dedication. This is why we've been inviting restaurants like Ombak Kitchen over to our café at the visitor centre at the weekends to showcase their respective culinary crafts.'

Ombak Kitchen became an instant household name for celebrations and get-togethers due to its fuss-free Pakai tangan jèr. and Insta-friendly dining concept serving ocean-fresh premium seafood, double-boiled and drenched in its signature sauces. Its Group CEO, Sharita Loo says, "We're committed to offering the best quality seafood and ingredients to create the finest dining experience that truly enriches lives. During this pandemic, the call to evolve, unite and creatively work together to revive businesses for the well-being of all was a clear one. When we were invited by Royal Selangor, we knew it was a time to celebrate and, to uphold our traditions of craftsmanship and culinary excellence together despite circumstances.'
