Cilantro, the acclaimed restaurant at MiCasa hotel, is home to a culinary legend in the country – chef Takashi Kimura.
Helming the kitchen for the past 20 years with brilliant dishes that continue to garner respect from those foodies and connoisseurs, chef Kimura and his team has dazzled Malaysian diners for the past two decades with his signature blend of French fare with Japanese touches.
Because of his efforts, Malaysia Tatler has awarded this soft-spoken chef with our first ever Tatler Legacy Award in recognition of his contributions to the Malaysian dining scene.
Despite being recognised as a pioneer in his field, this humble chef almost didn’t choose a life of chef’s whites and fine foods many years ago.
