Ronald Akili's latest venture in Singapore, called Air, aims to be a sustainable culinary campus and cooking club. The restaurant is set in a refurbished two-storey building surrounded by jungle and gardens.
For the Indonesian restaurateur and hotelier Ronald Akili , the idea of food extends beyond simple notions of taste and presentation to embrace larger, almost existential koans of ‘Where does our food come from? How is it made? How does it connect us?’ These questions loom large in his latest Singapore an venture Air – an acronym for awareness, impact and responsibility – which aims to be not just a restaurant, but also a circular (read sustainable) culinary campus and cooking club .
Aiding the cause is a crack team comprising long-time architecture collaboratorSet in sprawling 40,000 sq ft of extant jungle, greenery, and vegetable and herb gardens, the physical restaurant is a refurbished two-storey building that was once part of a clubhouse for the Singapore Civil Service Sports Council in the 1970s, its elegant, low-slung silhouette almost obscured by towering tropical tree
