About Kebaya
Kebaya, is a partnership with New-York-based food consultant, Margaret Goh, a 2nd generation Peranakan-Singaporean, and is a restaurant and bar devoted solely to Peranakan cuisine
Mehta, one of New York’s most prominent chefs and advocates for Asian food culture in New York has been raising the profile of Singaporean cuisine in New York with his popular bars and restaurants such as Singlish in Union Square; and Singapura in Gramercy. With *Kebaya and as the name suggests, this latest culinary concept by Mehta will focus on the vibrant Peranakan food culture which is unique to Singapore, Malaysia and the coastal areas of Indonesia's Java and Sumatra islands (*kebaya is an intricate, vibrant garment traditionally worn by women in Southeast Asia, and is an ethnic costume synonymous with the Peranakan and Malay communities). Kebaya also features oft-forgotten dishes from the Chitty Peranakan, a distinctive group of Tamil people found mainly and originally in Melaka, Malaysia, and in Singapore where they migrated to in the 18th and 19th centuries (this community is also known as the Indian Peranakans).
