Malaysia Airports Celebrates KLIA’s Best F&B with Tatler Dining
Malaysia Airports announced the winners of the KULinary Dining Awards 2024 this evening, a highlight of the ongoing KULinary 2024 food festival, which celebrates the best food and beverage outlets at KL International Airport (KLIA) Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. The exciting evening was graced by local celebrities such as Scha Alyahya, Awal Ashaari, Thanuja, Ceddy Ng, Uyaina Arshad, and more, who had the opportunity to indulge in award-winning dishes prepared by KLIA’s top F&B outlets.
This year, Malaysia Airports teamed up with Tatler Dining for the first time, adding a new layer of prestige to the KULinary event. Each F&B outlet was evaluated through a meticulous process by mystery diners and a panel of experts, including professionals from Tatler Dining, industry leaders, and tastemakers. This ensured a comprehensive assessment of the best dining experiences KLIA has to offer.
The KULinary Dining Awards awarded F&B operators across 11 categories, including Best Ambience, Best Services, Most Innovative Dish, Best Newcomer, and Best Overall.
“This year’s winners have truly redefined what airport dining can be. Our partnership with Tatler Dining allows us to spotlight the remarkable culinary gems at our airports. From top-tier service to creative, high-quality dishes, these outlets represent the crème de la crème of airport dining,” said Hani Ezra Hussin, Senior General Manager, Commercial Services for Malaysia Airports.
“This isn’t just about offering great food, it’s about raising the bar for every F&B outlet at our airports. We’re challenging our operators to push boundaries, innovate, and deliver a dining experience that stands out on the global stage.” she added.
First launched in 2016, KULinary is an annual showcase hosted by Malaysia Airports to recognise outstanding F&B outlets at the airport. This campaign highlights culinary excellence in food variety, quality, and value, while also motivating the operators to continually elevate their service standards, ensuring passengers enjoy an exceptional dining experience.
From 27 to 29 September 2024, travellers and visitors are invited to enjoy the festival, which will host over 300 guests daily. Attendees can savour 16 diverse dishes and beverages while participating in exciting activities led by celebrity chefs and culinary experts. Highlights include a food photography workshop with Trisha Toh, food plating with Noritake, and a cooking demonstration by Chef Dato’ Fazley Yaakob.
