JAAN by Kirk Westaway is an internationally celebrated restaurant in Singapore that has established itself as a gastronomic platform with a reputation for handpicking and grooming exceptional culinary talents.
Born in South West Britain, Chef de Cuisine Kirk Westaway channels his deeply rooted passion for natural flavours that are reminiscent of his childhood in England. Applying the philosophy ’Reinventing British’, his perpetually evolving menu embodies a seasonal philosophy to showcase British dining in a modern, refreshing light.
Derived from the Cambodian word for 'bowl', The intimate 40 seat restaurant has a sophisticated interior that features an elegant private dining room for exclusive events as well as a stunning Murano crystal and silver free-form chandelier that spans the entire length of the ceiling. The beauty of the chandelier is only outdone by two things: the breathtaking view of Singapore’s scenic landscape as well as the truly exquisite culinary and service experience that has become the hallmark of this multi-award-winning restaurant.

Singapore really does have some of the most diverse food joints around; there is something in it for everyone- right from rugged proteinaceous meats which you can devour to your heart’s content to exquisite yet simplistic dishes that will not only serve as a hearty meal but also be a titillating eye candy for you. Jaan is one such place. Magnificent views of the Singapore skyline await the guests as they prepare to get seated in this intimate 40- seater space.
Not only the menu card but even the jukebox at Jaan reeks of Great Britain. Crunchy fish and chip tarts, Devonshire cheddar and buckwheat pancakes and the Alaskan Langoustine with courgette are some dishes that grace the menu here. These coupled with some rich, vintage wines and head bobbing British pop-rock music is all you need to have a fun and full evening.
