The Kitchen by Wolfgang Puck
(Terminal 3, Singapore Changi Airport)
The Kitchen is celebrity American chef Wolfgang Puck’s third venture in Singapore, after one Michelin-starred Cut and Spago in Bayfront. The special location of The Kitchen inspires Puck to incorporate dishes from various cuisines in his menu, including sour and spicy soup with chicken and shiitake mushroom, as well as Korean kimchi short ribs. The restaurant features casual dining at a lower price point. It opens from 6am to 1am to accommodate travellers on different schedules, with breakfast options prepared to early flyers.

Chiu Chow braised meat, or lo mei, is the speciality of Hung’s Delicacies. Its signature dishes such as Marinated Goose Slices, Duck Tongue in Chinese Liquor, and Chicken’s Leg Tendon with Sesame are best to go with the joint’s homemade XO sauce and chilli sauce. Its approachable price level and authenticity attract diners from Hong Kong and all over the world. The branch of Hung’s Delicacies in North Point was award One Michelin Star status in the Michelin Guide Hong Kong and Macau for five consecutive years between 2010 and 2014, before closing for rental reasons. You can also find this local favourite in the branches in Kwun Tong and Macau.
