The Hungry Tapir

Our Story

About Us

Our menu puts a plant-based twist on familiar Malaysian favourites alongside international dishes, all-day breakfast, sharing plates, desserts and creative cocktails. From vegan nasi lemak and satay to burgers, pasta, bowls and house cocktails, we aim to make plant-based dining exciting, accessible and memorable.

Beyond food and drinks, The Hungry Tapir is about creating an experience. We love bringing people together through great hospitality, creative events, music and a unique atmosphere. Our space includes a hidden Chinatown patio and a distinctive jungle-inspired interior that makes the restaurant feel like a little escape in the middle of the city.

Our Mission

We are a people-first hospitality team that values warmth, creativity, teamwork and individuality.

We are looking for people who genuinely enjoy working with people, take pride in what they do and want to be part of a fun, energetic and creative environment.

At The Hungry Tapir, we believe great hospitality starts with a great team. Whether you're welcoming guests, creating drinks, preparing food or keeping the restaurant running smoothly, every role contributes to the overall experience.
