The Kuala Lumpur Big Kitchen festival was created to put KL on the food map. Curator Norman Musa, the London-based Malaysian food ambassador of Ning restaurant and cooking school fame, and festival director Noraza Yusof wanted an interactive event where visitors don’t just come to eat, but take part in the cooking process.
The recently concluded three-day food festival was organised by the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) in partnership with the Tourism and Culture Ministry, and supported by various corporations, such as Malaysia Airlines, Gas Petronas, Electrolux, Sam’s Groceria, and Hotel Majestic.
