Finally, there appears to be a place where the people of Klang Valley and beyond can congregate for a truly Signature gastronomy and entertainment experience!

When it comes down to it, you wonder why the idea hadn’t caught on in Malaysia sooner. After all, Malaysians are renowned for being a nation of food lovers, and most meetings and get-togethers are centred on food. Admittedly, we do have food courts, food corners, seafood squares and the likes but not one that has an upmarket, classy innovativeness to it. This is where SohoKL steps in to make ALL the difference to the gastronomic scene in Malaysia when the nation is at a point where they are screaming for something exciting, something entertaining and well, just something different!

Well, something exciting and entertaining is just what you get when you step into SohoKL. But what exactly is SohoKL and how did it come to be? The story begins 25 years ago when a young man by the name of Kenn Yam stepped unto the shores of England to pursue his tertiary education. While reading for his business law and accounting degree, Yam worked part-time as a second chef in a Chinese restaurant, a job that proved to be an eye-opener for him as this is where a love for the food and beverage (F& B) industry slowly took root.

However, upon graduation Yam decided that business law, accounting and the F&B industry had to play second fiddle as the filial calling to join in the family business of construction and housing development proved stronger. But no matter how much Yam immersed himself in the real estate industry, learning all he could about it in the process, his passion for F&B was not quenched. As he spent years walking the streets of London, observing the goings-on in Soho London and Covent Garden, an idea started forming in his mind - one that integrates the F&B and property industries together.
