Building Stronger Bonds Beyond the Workplace

From 15 to 19 January 2026, our company trip brought together colleagues from across KCK’s brands and outlets for five days away from the daily routine. It gave our teams the opportunity to spend time together, share new experiences and create lasting memories — strengthening the connections and sense of belonging that are an important part of life at KCK.

15–19 January 2026

From 15 to 19 January 2026, colleagues from across KCK F&B Group came together for our Company Trip 2026 — five days dedicated to new experiences, shared moments and time together beyond the workplace.

With our teams working across different brands, outlets and functions, daily schedules do not always leave much time for colleagues to connect outside their usual roles. The company trip created that opportunity, bringing people together in a more relaxed environment and allowing them to experience a different side of working as part of KCK.

Time Together Beyond Our Everyday Roles

Away from the usual pace of restaurant operations and day-to-day responsibilities, colleagues had the chance to relax, spend time with one another and enjoy the experience together.

The trip created opportunities for conversations between people who may not normally work closely together, while giving existing teams the chance to strengthen the relationships they have built through their everyday work.

Whether through shared activities, meals or simply spending time together, these moments helped colleagues connect beyond job titles, departments and outlets.

Shared Experiences, Stronger Connections

As KCK continues to grow across different brands and locations, strong relationships between our people become increasingly important.

Experiences outside the workplace can play a valuable role in building those relationships. They create a different environment for communication, encourage colleagues to get to know one another better and help strengthen the sense that everyone is contributing to a larger journey together.

The company trip was also an opportunity to recognise the commitment of our teams and give everyone time to recharge after the demands of everyday operations.

Creating Memories Along the Way

A company trip is ultimately remembered through the moments shared along the way — the conversations, laughter, new experiences and memories that colleagues bring home with them.

For KCK, these experiences are part of building an organisation where people are connected not only by the work they do, but also by the journey they share.

As the group continues to move forward, Company Trip 2026 gave us an opportunity to strengthen those connections and create another chapter of memories together.

Because building a strong organisation is also about building strong connections between the people within it.

The King of Tsukemen Is Coming — Menya Itto Malaysia Flagship Opens in October

This October, Menya Itto Ramen makes its Malaysia debut with a flagship outlet in Genting. Known for its distinctive tsukemen, the Japanese ramen brand brings a new dining experience to Malaysia and marks another step in KCK’s expansion into international F&B brands.

KCK F&B Group is pleased to welcome Menya Itto to Malaysia, with the celebrated Japanese ramen brand preparing to open its first Malaysian restaurant in Genting Highlands.

Originating from Shinkoiwa, Tokyo, Menya Itto has built its reputation around its signature tsukemen and dedication to Japanese ramen craftsmanship. Its upcoming arrival in Malaysia marks a new chapter in the brand’s international journey and an important addition to KCK F&B Group’s growing portfolio.

From Tokyo to Malaysia

Menya Itto began in Tokyo with a strong focus on craftsmanship, consistency and attention to detail.

The brand is particularly recognised for its tsukemen, where noodles are served separately from a rich dipping broth, allowing diners to experience the texture of the noodles and depth of the broth with every bite.

Following its expansion beyond Japan into markets including Taiwan and Thailand, Menya Itto is now preparing to bring its dining experience to Malaysia for the first time.

A New Destination in Genting Highlands

Surrounded by the cool mountain climate of Genting Highlands, the upcoming restaurant offers a fitting setting for a comforting bowl of ramen or a satisfying serving of tsukemen.

The opening reflects KCK F&B Group’s continued commitment to introducing distinctive dining concepts and internationally recognised brands to the Malaysian market.

Through this collaboration, the aim is to bring the character and craftsmanship of Menya Itto closer to Malaysian diners while preserving the experience that has shaped the brand since its beginnings in Tokyo.

Crafted for the Malaysian Market

The Genting Highlands restaurant will offer a Muslim-friendly menu with no pork, allowing a wider range of guests to experience Menya Itto in Malaysia.

While adapting to the local market, the focus remains on preserving the techniques, flavours and attention to detail behind every bowl.

From Tokyo to Taiwan and Thailand, and now Malaysia, the journey continues.

While the appearance has evolved, the focus remains on what guests know and enjoy: comforting bowls of porridge, generous ingredients and flavours made for everyday dining.

More Than a New Look
