Mark 29 June 2017 as the official date for the launch of Singapore's second MICHELIN guide. Results will be unveiled at The Fullerton Hotel Singapore, a week after the release of the Bib Gourmand selection which lists restaurants offering good quality food at an affordable price.
This year, the MICHELIN guide Singapore 2017 Star Event follows the theme of 'All Things Classic', with guest chefs Curtis Duffy from three-Michelin-starred Grace in Chicago, and chef Tam Kwok Fung from two-Michelin-starred Jade Dragon in Macau each preparing their interpretation of classic cuisine.
Michelin launched its first-ever Southeast Asian guide last year to much fanfare, as the nation celebrated its recognition of our finest food heroes — including stars awarded to two local hawkers for the first time. This year's awards-cum-gala dinner will commence with canapés prepared by chef Leong Chee Yeng of Michelin-recommended Jade Restaurant. The Chinese restaurant recently unveiled a pretty new Tiffany-blue interior and a new direction for its menu, following its first revamp after nine years.
Results for restaurants in the 2017 guide will be announced during the five-course dinner prepared by chefs from both local and overseas Michelin-starred restaurants. Joining chefs Curtis Duffy and Tam Kwok Fung in the star line-up is local talent Jason Tan from Corner House, known for his presentation of Gastro Botanica cuisine. He was awarded one star in last year's guide.
In line with this year's theme of returning to classics, the chefs will each showcase their own interpretation of classic cuisine. Paired with the dinner is an impeccable selection of wines handpicked by the Robert Parker Wine Advocate team.
