Also happening up in George Town is ‘The Good Project’. This all-day event is geared towards one purpose and one purpose only: giving back. The city’s F&B community—alongside some KL stars—will be coming together for two headlining events, both happening on the same day, each with its own agenda. By day, the COEX @ Kilang Besi will transform into the site of a farmer’s market, complete with workshops, where local growers will be able to showcase their produce and spark conversation. There will also be some pop-ups and guest shifts on-site to provide you with good food and booze for the day. And when the sun goes down, shuffle over to Hin Bus Depot for an evening of community, cuisine, and collaboration. Names on the roster include Su Kim Hock of Au Jardin, Johnson Wong of Gēn, and Rohan Matmary of Bar Trigona. All proceeds from both events will go towards supporting House of Hope.
