About Momochan Japanese Restaurant

Momochan is a Japanese restaurant located in a shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur. The interior combines concrete and wood in a minimal setting. Wide glass panels at the front and the back allow natural light to fill the space during the day. The shopfront holds an open counter with an ice cream bar and an open kitchen, framed by wood stripes and green marble in earthy and neutral tones. A house shaped ceiling with wood stripes connects the open dining area and a pet friendly area, which are divided by glass panels. Bench seating and striped walls complete the setting.

Production Technology
The setting features traditional materials such as concrete and wood in a minimalist setting. For the entrance wall, we apply Japanese traditional wood stripes design and green marble with earthy and neutral tones materials creating an atmosphere that is distinctly modern and welcoming. A house shaped wood striped ceiling connected the both open dining and pet friendly space, ending with bench seating with keeping the strip design to the wall.
Design Challenge
The pet-friendly zone, we use the glass panels as divider to the both normal dining and pet-friendly dining areas. Also to solve the hygiene and noise problem to other customers.
Project Duration
The project started in November 2018 in Jaya One Mall, Kuala Lumpur and completed in February 2019.
Operation Flow
The open kitchen and bar aim to deliver the showcase sanitary processes and the steps taken to turn fresh, high quality ingredients into each mouthwatering meal. The customer a.k.a the chef are proud of the delicious dishes they create. Providing drama and excitement, engaging customers who appreciate the artistry of cooking.
Research
Especially the open ice-cream bar at the shopfront. Allowing the restaurant staffs engaging with walk-by customers, not only the ice-cream, customers are more easy to attract with the unique menu. Unlike the shops near-by in the mall, the both sides glass panels allowing natural lights fully filled in the interior space, creating a warm and welcoming space to the customers.
Inspiration
The design aims to evoke the feel of a tranquil getaway from the hustle and bustle outside, a place where customers are looked after with great care and, of course, with great food. And also providing a space for pet friendly corner.
