Gourmet meals for under US$5: 2022 Michelin Guide Singapore adds 9 entries to its Bib Gourmand list of low-cost restaurants and food stalls
- The 2022 Singapore Michelin Guide’s Bib Gourmand list of food establishments offering a gourmet experience that’s great value for money has grown
- The addition of restaurants and food stalls serving noodles, soup, and Thai, Indonesian, Japanese and European contemporary food takes the total to 67
The Michelin Guide has named nine new eateries on the Bib Gourmand list of value-for-money places to eat in Singapore.
There are 67 names on the list, with five of the new entries restaurants (prices S$20-72, or US$15-52, according to Michelin), three hawker centre stalls (prices S$6-10, or US$4.30-7.20) and the other a street food establishment. The Bib Gourmand category, which was created in 1997, is granted by Michelin’s inspectors to places that offer diners a gourmet experience that’s very good value for money.
The new names include Fool, a wine bar from chef-owner Rishi Naleendra and beverage manager Vinodhan Veloo – who are part of the team behind Michelin-starred Cloudstreet; Kelantan Kway Chap – Pig Organ Soup in the Berseh Food Centre; and street food stall Sing Lung HK Cheong Fun in Beach Road.
Singapore has in the past few months emerged from many of its pandemic-related restrictions, and Michelin pointed to a “healthy recovery” in economic activity and daily life.
“With this selection of newly awarded Bib Gourmand locations, we celebrate the dynamism of the local food industry, which has neither lost at all its passion, nor its quality of offerings,” said Gwendal Poullennec, international director of the Michelin Guide.
