ABOUT US

Step right up and immerse yourself in the pulsing heart of the Cinnamon Group, where dining isn't just a mundane act of eating - oh no, it's a voyage, a foray into a realm where culinary adventures defy the mundane and flirt with the extraordinary. Here, in our world, flavors don't merely tickle your taste buds; they envelop you, they narrate tales, they become a part of your very being.

Our odyssey kicked off with Aliyaa, an establishment that's more than just a spot to grab a bite; it's a heartfelt tribute to my roots. Every dish here whispers a story, each recipe a treasured relic passed down from my mother's kitchen. This place isn't just another pin on the foodie map; it's a slice of my soul, an intricate mosaic of flavors lovingly stitched together from the memories of home.

And then, behold Nadodi, our pièce de résistance nestled in the luxurious embrace of the Four Seasons Hotel in Kuala Lumpur. This isn't your run-of-the-mill dining experience; it's a gastronomic pilgrimage. Here, culinary mavericks and visionaries weave enchantments on plates, transforming simple meals into canvases of wonder, turning a casual dinner into an epic to be recounted for ages.

Enter Yarl, a boisterous celebration of Sri Lankan boldness that dances on your taste buds, while Ki Ku Bari is an elegant whisper of Japanese craftsmanship. Bocado erupts in a riotous flamenco of Spanish flavors, and Sticky Wicket is the quintessential British gastro pub, echoing with the cheers of cricket fans.

Behind the curtain, our unsung heroes – the chefs, the servers, the mixologists, and everyone who's part of our tribe – they are the true conjurers of our magic. They're the ones who make us shine, crafting aromas and tastes that beckon the crowds. They're more than just staff; they're the pulsating heart of the Cinnamon Group, artisans devoted to weaving moments of sheer delight and human connection.

Sure, we've basked in the glow of Michelin recognition and bountiful accolades, but that's not what fuels our fire. Our passion is for the game, the sheer ecstasy of flavor, the stories that unfold around a table heaped with dishes that echo tales of distant lands, of people, of unbridled passion.

With us, every visit is an epic, each dish a dialogue. Whether you're drawn to the primal allure of Brasa, the timeless elegance of Natalina, or the warm embrace of Café Colombo, you're not just stepping into a restaurant; you're stepping into a narrative, a festivity of what happens when food collides with fervor.

So, are you ready to dive into this smorgasbord of the daring, the audacious, the downright delectable? Join us on this culinary crusade. At the Cinnamon Group, we're not merely serving meals; we're handcrafting unforgettable experiences, beckoning you to relish every moment, every zest, in a celebration of the globe's diverse culinary marvels. Here's to a journey brimming with discoveries, delights, and dishes that will leave you craving just one more bite.
