Tiffin at The Yard, like its legendary food carrier namesake, is a multi-layered culinary platform propelled by Malaysians’ unrivalled love affair with food and drink. Tiffin brings together the nation’s best creative minds to create multi-sensory dining and drinking experiences unlike any other, guided by its mission to bridge the culinary and creative worlds. Located in Sentul Depot, one of the country’s largest complexes of railway engineering workshops, which dates back to 1905, it features the first F&B concept to be realized in one of the country’s oldest heritage structures.
This year, Tiffin at the Yard has announced The Big Feast, a series of themed quarterly events beginning with the Seafood edition, which will take place from March 24th to 27th. The four-day extravaganza, which includes a variety of seafood-themed activities, special creations from its tenants, a pop-up raw bar, and a ‘Grill & Chill’ section with guest chefs, is sure to delight the senses of the city’s seafood lovers.
A mouthwatering selection of fish and cephalopods, as well as mollusks and crustaceans, is available only for the four-day period. Alta Burger, Red Red Botak Head, Joloko, and Southern Rock Seafood are returning to Tiffin at the Yard with the Alta Fish Burger, Baby Octopus Shoyu Aglio Olio, Creole Grilled Lobster & Stingray, and Gourmet Fish Pie, respectively.
Look out for Seafood Ramen from Tokyo Ramen (popular at Isetan KL), Pan Seared Sea Bass & Prawn Cakes from Deep South, Korean-Chinese Charcoal Shrimp Toast and Spicy Teriyaki Unagi Stir-fried Radish Cake from Crabee, and Prawn & Chives Steamed Cheong Fun from modern-2q1 ‘Cantonese skewed Halley’.
The newcomers will also be busy, with Fratelli Pastificio serving up handmade Fettuccine Salmone Rosa, The Taco King slinging Baja Fish Tacos and Shrimp Tacos, plus Aleyna doing Thai Street-Style Grilled Sotong.
Operating solely on the 26th and 27th of March, pop up kitchens will include much-loved Chef Jack Weldie and his team from Seapark’s; hole-in-the-wall gem Chipta11A, serving up luscious Japanese-inspired sashimi dons; while Chef Zoe Rai of eponymous restaurant Zoe will lead the Grill & Chill section, cooking some of the freshest produce from locally-sourced seafood purveyor, Fish for It.
Also on the agenda: Gyotaku Fish Printing workshop with Sakana Studio, where participants will learn the ancient Japanese art of imprinting seafood onto rice paper. A Kristang Seafood Demo session with award-winning Chef Melba Nunis, will demonstrate two of her seafood signatures, Crab Stuffing and Fish Sambal Binaigre, before guests sit down to a full Kristang luncheon; Puro KL x Southern Rock Seafood‘s Wine & Brine pairing; and the Dock to Dish Dinner featuring chef R. Salleh of Aleyna, Sushi Azabu, and wines presented by New Yorker sommelier, Alison Christ.
Since its opening in November 2021, the 20,000 sq ft food paradise has gone from strength to strength, wowing foodies not just with its eclectic mix of tenants and events, but also with its spacious, semi-alfresco setting and ample parking.
