KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA: Following their programme at Enstek, culinary ambassadors Chef Fadi Mneimneh and Chef Rakan Aloraifi visited Ajinomoto (Malaysia) Berhad (AMB) at its headquarters in Technology Park Malaysia, continuing a partnership built on a shared commitment to quality in professional kitchens. The visit brought two of Saudi Arabia's most respected culinary figures face to face with the leadership and team behind the brand.

The chefs were welcomed for a guided tour of the office, where they met Mr. Daisaku Wadami (main photo, right), Managing Director of Ajinomoto (Malaysia) Berhad (AMB), and Mr. Akihiko Nozaki (main photo, left), Chief Sales and Marketing Officer. The meeting underscored the spirit of the collaboration, connecting culinary expertise from the Middle Eastern market with the people directing AJINOMOTO's business and strategy.

The visit then moved to the auditorium, where Chef Fadi and Chef Rakan led a live demonstration for the Ajinomoto (Malaysia) Berhad team, including office staff and management. The session offered a firsthand look at how the brand's professional seasonings perform in practice, with the chefs showing how Umami builds depth, holds consistency across servings, and brings the precision of world-class technique to the plate.

The demonstration was followed by a live question and answer session, giving the team a direct exchange with the chefs on technique, professional kitchen operations, and the role of flavor in building a successful food business. It was a genuine meeting of minds, with the people behind the products learning directly from the chefs who put them to work at the highest level.

For HORECA operators, the visit reflects the foundation of the wider partnership. The same principles shared in the auditorium, consistency, efficiency, and flavor that performs under real conditions, are exactly what the upcoming masterclass series will translate into practical methods for restaurant operators, hotel kitchens, and professional chefs.

Industry professionals, restaurateurs, and chefs who wish to follow the full series can register their interest now on the Ajinomoto KSA website to receive masterclass updates and secure early access as new sessions are released.
