My partner in crime with Chef Tan Tzaan Liing

Coming from a family of chefs and a family who has been in the restaurant business, it only seemed natural for Chef Tan to follow in his mother’s footsteps – who is also a chef in Singapore. With an impressive resume under his belt which has taken him to Japan, Taiwan and Indonesia, Tan only believes in cooking healthy yet delicious Chinese cuisine using the freshest ingredients. Chef Tan’s love of travelling and learning different cultures and beliefs is evident in his preparation and cooking style making Five Sen5es dining experience an adventure rich in culture and heritage of Asia.
