Kelaté
’s stepping stone into Singapore’s gruelling F&B industry.
Compelled to settle down in our sunny island with her Singaporean husband due to the current travel restrictions, Sasqia found herself craving a taste of home after a long period away from her hometown of Kelantan. In an attempt to ease that bit of homesickness, she started whipping up traditional Kelantanese fare in her very own kitchen, feeding friends and loved ones with comfort food she grew up with.
“Response to my food was great, and that was when I started selling from home. After some time, I felt a calling to open Kelaté, an avenue where I can share traditional Kelantese cuisine to my fellow Malaysians who, like me, are missing a taste of their hometown,” Sasqia mentioned during our visit.
