“The restaurant was very dated. Renovation had been knocking on the door for a long time,” he said. “It had been my request since I took over. It kind of got pushed behind and pushed behind. We are very popular,” he said, explaining that the dining room was always fully booked for lunch and dinner.
“And then we won this award for best restaurant design in Singapore, about three years ago. It was great. Thanks very much. But, it didn’t help my bargaining chip to say, ‘We need to renovate’.” What’s more, because Jaan is part of a hotel, it took time to convince all the decision-makers to support the move.
And then, just when they had gotten the go-ahead, COVID-19 hit, and the project was put on hold.
The refreshed space is finally debuting on Dec 6, and now, Westaway said, “It’s a real reflection of me, my life and my childhood in Devon, and who I am and what I want to do in this restaurant, and the point I’m trying to get across – putting myself on the line and trying to represent British cuisine in this part of the world.”
