Rishi Naleendra 1

Rishi Naleendra is a Sri Lankan-born, Singapore-based chef known for his bold and contemporary approach to cuisine. After an unexpected shift from architecture to hospitality, he honed his craft at some of Australia’s top restaurants before launching Cheek by Jowl in Singapore, becoming the first Sri Lankan chef to earn a Michelin star.

Today, he leads a dynamic group of acclaimed venues in the Little Red Dot, including Cloudstreet, Kotuwa, and Station by Kotuwa — each a reflection of his creative spirit, refined technique, and deep-rooted Sri Lankan heritage.

Rishi’s work is defined by artistry, global influences, and an unwavering commitment to true hospitality.
