Singapore chef Akmal Anuar's Dubai outpost of Harummanis enters Bib Gourmand list
The Straits Times
|May 28, 2025
Dubai-based Singaporean chef Akmal Anuar's five-month-old Harummanis Dubai has earned a spot on the Bib Gourmand list.
Dubai's Michelin Guide 2025 was announced on May 22.
This accolade comes shortly after the restaurant opened in the glitzy city in December.
It carries the legacy of chef Akmal's parents, who have been running their family's nasi padang hawker stall - also called Harumanis - in Teck Whye since 1992.
Harumanis means sweet-smelling and refers to a popular Indonesian mango variety.
Akmal opened modern Malay restaurant Harummanis in Kampong Glam in Singapore in November 2023.
In Dubai, the menu at Harummanis offers traditional dishes with a modern twist. They include beef cheek rendang; ketoprak, an Indonesian salad reimagined with Japanese sesame sauce and kombu in place of the traditional peanut dressing; and smoky udang galah, featuring Australian jumbo prawns grilled with curry leaves and peppercorns.
