TasteofTiffin

Kuala Lumpur – Freeform Untitled, the organisers of the creative arts festival Urbanscapes, will launch Tiffin. Like the concept of the eponymous food carrier, Tiffin is a multi-layered platform for varied dining experiences and activities that is spurred by Malaysians’ unparalleled love affair with food and drink. The brand will be launched during Taste of Tiffin from 26 Feb to 28 Feb 2016 in Publika. Taste of Tiffin will offer a sneak preview of its flagship project Tiffin Week, a city-wide celebration of food and drink slated for the second half of 2016.

We’re excited to bring the best of the region to all of Tiffin’s initiatives. Taste of Tiffin will give those with a deep affection for food and drink a preview of Tiffin Week’s dining experience and activities. We will also take the opportunity this February to announce more details on Tiffin Week. We hope foodies everywhere will join us in Publika and find out how we’re celebrating the love of food and drink in real exciting ways,” said Adrian Yap, founder of Tiffin and Freeform Untitled.

Taste of Tiffin comprises a series of free and ticketed events namely, the weekend food market Chowdown; Brunch Sessions that are catered by independent tastemakers; and the mixology and craft spirits enthusiasts’ pop-up bar Heart Of The Run. To complete Taste of Tiffin’s offering for the weekend, visitors can look forward to a few rounds of all-ages Mini Golf in and around Publika. The 3-day event will kick off with Tiffin Throwdown, which will also serve as Taste of Tiffin’s official launch party.
