Renowned for their culinary excellence at Beta KL, Raymond Tham, Alex Cheah, and Kelvin Cheah first made their mark with Skillet KL. Born in 2015 in its original Cormar Suites corner lot, it began as a café, slowly evolving into the esteemed modern European dining space it is today.
“When Alex and Kelvin first approached me to join them in opening Skillet, I had just moved from teaching to working in a chocolate company,” Tham recalls, chuckling. “I remember thinking that if the venture did not come to fruition, I would have to return to my teaching job!”
However, with Tham’s culinary expertise and creativity, alongside the Cheah brothers’ savvy business minds and humble approach, success was always on the cards. Even then, constructive customer feedback was always taken to heart, and the restaurant slowly grew a loyal following. “I still remember we had an Austrian customer that would dine in every weekend for lunch and dinner, then send me a report detailing his thoughts,” Tham says with a smile.
