Restaurant Au Jardin

Au Jardin is a one-Michelin-starred restaurant (2026 MICHELIN Guide Malaysia) tucked into the Hin Bus Depot heritage compound in George Town — an intimate, 18-seat room in a tastefully converted warehouse. Chef Kim Hock builds a monthly-changing tasting menu around natural, seasonal ingredients, marrying French technique to locally sourced Malaysian produce. A frequently-praised signature is the hay-aged duck, and diners single out the attentive, knowledgeable service that talks you through each course. Seats are few and demand is high — a per-person deposit is taken at booking, and reservations often need to be made well in advance.
