Born from Malay and Chinese heritage, Peranakans are unique to the Straits of Southeast Asia — namely the cities of Singapore, Malacca and Penang. A Peranakan himself, Chef Malcolm Lee began his career by working in food establishments in the United States and operating a Western cafeĢ-bar during university days. His rediscovery of familiar Asian flavours came through the achievement of being the first Singaporean recipient of the Miele Guide Scholarship, granting him a place at the At-Sunrice Globalchef Academy. Bringing these experiences together, Chef Malcolm Lee seeks to serve his heritage through a menu of refined taste and techniques, creating Candlenut’s authentic yet innovative Peranakan flavours.
