Michelin-starred street food on show
The inaugural Michelin Guide Street Food Festival will take place at Resorts World Sentosa on April 14 to 15 with a star-studded line-up of eateries from the very first selection of the Michelin guide Singapore 2016.
These include the world’s first-ever hawker stall to be starred in the guide, Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Rice & Noodle; Bib Gourmand awardee Wedang, famous for its traditional Malay favourites like gado-gado, tauhu goreng and satay; as well as Michelin-star holders like one-star Indian restaurant Song of India; two-star Japanese restaurant Shoukouwa; and the three-star Joel Robuchon Restaurant. The participating establishments will showcase their most renowned dishes as well as their modern take on some of Singapore’s mouth-watering street food favourites at value-for-money price, starting from S$2.50 (Bt60)
The festival aims to celebrate Singapore’s multi-ethnic diversity and how food brings everyone together. The setting will have a retro theme to reflect the street food culture of Singapore from the 1960s and 1970s. Guests can savour delicious offerings from different Michelin-starred eateries under one roof, without needing to travel to different corners of Singapore.
The Michelin guide selects the best restaurants and hotels in the 28 countries it covers. Providing a showcase of gourmet dining around the world, it highlights the culinary dynamism of a country, as well as new trends and emerging young chefs. Creating value for restaurants through the distinctions that it attributes each year, the guide contributes to the prestige of the local gastronomy, thereby making cities and countries more attractive to tourists.
