Dewakan Awarded Two Michelin Stars For Third Consecutive Year
The Michelin Guide 2026 was released yesterday, with Dewakan, the acclaimed restaurant helmed by Chef Darren Teoh, once again being awarded Two MICHELIN Stars, marking its third consecutive year at the forefront of Malaysia’s fine-dining landscape.
Celebrated for its innovative use of indigenous ingredients and bold reinterpretation of traditional Malaysian flavors, Dewakan has become both a culinary beacon and cultural statement, showcasing the richness and diversity of Malaysia’s gastronomic heritage. Its continued recognition underscores the restaurant’s excellence and its vital role in shaping the country’s culinary narrative.
In addition to its MICHELIN Stars, Dewakan has been invited into the MICHELIN Green Star community, a distinction reserved for restaurants that demonstrate a strong commitment to sustainability and the future of gastronomy. The Green Star highlights establishments that inspire through environmental stewardship, sustainable practices, and forward-thinking culinary innovation.
“Joining the MICHELIN Green Star community is a testament to Dewakan’s vision of progress and sustainability in fine dining,” said Chef Darren Teoh. “It encourages collaboration and dialogue among like-minded restaurants, and motivates us to continually evolve while celebrating the best of Malaysia’s natural and cultural resources.”
Dewakan’s dual recognition — for both culinary excellence and sustainability — reinforces Malaysia’s growing reputation as a global destination for innovative, world-class dining experiences.
