Kaw Kaw

Pronounced as ‘Gao’ (Hokkien for thick), Kaw Kaw owes its current success to its humble beginnings as a street kiosk in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Making the journey over the causeway, this Muslim-owned restaurant has opened up a snazzy new space at the Aliwal Arts Centre, bringing with it its legendary brand of burger bakar (grilled patty burgers). In addition to doling out a ragbag of salads and pastas, burger fans can dig into the The Permaisuri; an alluring assemblage of crispy chicken, oozing cheese, turkey ham slices, chicken floss, and lemon.

When Joel’s not partaking in one of his shameless eating sessions, he likes to think of himself as a sponge – absorbing the mysteries and beauty of our world – be it through a good book or a wacky jaunt in a foreign country.
