Meet, Eat & Connect: A Southeast Asian Community Dinner @ Kawan by Uncle Roger
This month: 🇲🇾 Uncle Roger's Fried Rice Rating 🍚
Our On the Table series celebrates Southeast Asian food and the connections it creates. Each month, we'll gather around a different table to explore our region's diverse cuisines, share stories, meet new people, and build a community that feels a little more like home.
Join us for our next SEA Connect & Social gathering, this time, we are heading to Kawan by Uncle Roger in Chinatown!
In Malay, Kawan means friend or companion — and we think that's a fitting name for what we're building.
This month, we're getting together over Malaysian-inspired and wider Asian flavours, exploring a menu that brings a playful twist to familiar favourites.
We believe genuine connections start around the table. And what better way to bring people together than over the flavours, stories, and traditions that remind us of home?
Whether you're Malaysian, from another part of Southeast Asia, or simply curious about the food and culture, you're welcome at our table. Come hungry, solo or with a friend, bring your curiosity, and leave with a few new connections.
Beyond the food, SEA Connect & Social is about building a community where Southeast Asian professionals and friends can connect, support one another, and open doors to new friendships, collaborations, and opportunities.
We look forward to seeing you there!
🍚A bit of fun : Battle of the Fried Rice: Southeast Asia Edition!
Uncle Roger might have his opinions about fried rice, but we know one thing: every region has its own version, and everyone thinks theirs is the best. 😂
So, we're bringing a little friendly competition to the table!
🇲🇾 Malaysia vs 🇮🇩 Indonesia vs 🇹🇭 Thailand vs 🇵🇭 Philippines… and beyond!
We'll be championing our favourite regional styles, debating what makes a proper fried rice, putting our taste buds to the test and voting for the ultimate crowd favourite.
Expect strong opinions, a bit of friendly rivalry and plenty of Fuiyohs and Haiyaas!
Which region will take home the SEA Connect Fried Rice Crown?
Come ready to defend your favourite. 🍚🏆
