Our Story
In the same way a cocoa pod or coffee seed has the memory of where it comes from so too does a chef. ILMU, meaning "knowledge" in Malay, is a new tasting menu experience located inside T55 Pâtisserie. Chef Fai, on a lifelong quest for culinary knowledge, invites you to explore his world of cuisine through his lens - a Singaporean-born Chef, raised amongst Peranakan family meals, the famous Singapore hawker centers, and classically trained from the paramount hotels in Singapore to Michelin restaurants in France.

We’ve come a long way from our tiny booth at the local Farmer’s Markets though our goal has always remained the same. We aim to make food that is approachable, subtle, and refined. Everyday we strive to create and share something that truly matters to us, but more importantly, food should always aspire to unite us. It is within this unity that relationships are strengthened and beyond the simple goal of introducing you to new and unexpected flavors we are grateful to be able to play a small role in the memories you create over shared meals.
