Hyatt Regency Kuala Lumpur at KL Midtown has received its halal certification covering culinary operations across its banquet facilities and Midtown Brasserie kitchen.

“We take great pride in the food we serve, and it is es­­sen­­tial that we adhere to the regu­­lations and standards required of a halal-certified kitchen,” its general manager Till Martin said of the certification from Islamic Development Department (Jakim).

“With this certification, our Muslim guests can dine with confidence and peace of mind, knowing that all food and beverage offerings covered under the halal certification are prepared in full compliance with halal standards.”

Martin said the hotel’s team worked closely with Jakim over several months, undergoing rigorous on-site ins­­pections, detailed assessments and evaluations to ensure full compliance.

“Achieving this certification is especially significant as we strengthen our partnership with Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre, positioning the hotel as a preferred hospitality partner for international conventions and large-scale events,” he said.

To ensure strict adherence to halal standards, the hotel has formed a dedicated halal committee comprising chefs from each kitchen as well as representatives from procurement, food and beverage operations, hygiene and stewarding, supported by a specialised halal compliance team that oversees implementation, monitoring and compliance across all dining and banquet facilities.
