The MICHELIN Guide Singapore 2018 has just released the official list of Bib Gourmand recipients for this year. The 2018 selection includes 50 addresses with 17 first-time awardees.
The Bib Gourmand list recognises restaurants and street food establishments offering quality cuisines at a maximum price of S$45.
This year's selection includes stalls from several hawker centres in mature housing estates, one of which is Chai Chuan Tou Yang Rou Tang at Bukit Merah View Food Centre which only opens for lunch.
One of them is Chai Chuan Tou Yang Rou Tang at Bukit Merah View Food Centre which sees snaking queues for its steaming bowls of mutton soup served with rice and special chilli sauce. At Eminent Frog Porridge, frog is expertly prepared in various sauces and cooked in claypots to be had with silky rice porridge. 79-year-old Tham Niap Tiong learnt to make traditional curry puffs from a Hainanese sailor in the 1950s and today runs Rolina Singapore Traditional Hainanese Curry Puffs with his son, doling out freshly made pastries to customers every day.
