Savouring Malaysian Nostalgia, One Satay Stick at a Time Chef Haward Lee grew up in a busy household where meals were quick and simple. These nostalgic memories inspired him to create simple yet delicious food that brings people together. His signature dish, Chicken Satay, was born from a longing for the familiar tastes and warmth of his Malaysian home during his time working in London. “I am inspired to develop my own dishes to capture and share the taste of home, wherever I am.” Crafted with a perfect balance of ingredients and flavours, his satay has become a favourite at the Plaza Premium Lounge Kuala Lumpur, with up to 3,000 sticks served daily. Learn about Chef Haward’s story and get tips for cooking the perfect chicken satay!

We’re proud to showcase a collection of art pieces by Canadian artist Ken Prescott, featured in our Plaza Premium Lounge and Plaza Premium First dual-lounge at Vancouver International Airport (YVR). Art is a key pillar of our Proudly Local initiative, which celebrates the culture, creativity, and voices of the communities we serve. Known for his layered, expressive work, Ken draws inspiration from the textures and natural rhythms of Western Canada, capturing the emotional movement of travel through landscape, memory, and place. “Art in travel spaces matters. It offers a chance to feel something familiar, even in transit — a brief sense of calm, a spark of memory, or a reminder of where you’re heading… or where you’ve been.” – Ken Prescott We hope his artwork inspires our guests, much like travel itself. If you’re flying through Vancouver, take a moment to pause and experience it. #PlazaPremiumLounge #AirportHospitality #AirportLounge #YourDestinationBeforeDeparture #ProudlyLocal
