Singapore—As proof of the country’s world-class (and affordable) food, the number of eateries that have made it to Michelin Bib Gourmand’s list is bigger than ever.
This year, 58 eateries are included on Michelin’s list, eight more than in 2018.
According to Michelin’s press release, “The Bib Gourmand category was created in 1997 and granted by MICHELIN’s inspectors to the addresses that offer diners very good value for money, with a complete and high-quality menu priced at a maximum of SG$45.”
Of the 58 establishments, the majority—or 33 in all—are hawker stalls. Moreover, an additional six are street food places. Nineteen restaurants make up the remainder of the list.
The statement adds, “In a country where street food is an institution, it’s not surprising to find numerous Hawker stalls (33 are awarded with a Bib Gourmand) and street food establishments (6 Bib Gourmands) in this selection. These open-air stalls serve a variety of inexpensive food that highlight the heritage of a unique culinary tradition and offer a traditional food experience with a variety of tasty flavours. Spicy curries, seafood soups, roast meats and offal dishes are some favourites found in these places.
19 restaurants, two more than last year, also receive the Bib Gourmand recognition. Serving food inspired by Indian, Malay or Chinese influences, these addresses showcase the diversity of Singapore’s cuisine as a crossroads of flavours.”
As for the Michelin-starred eateries the Guide is famous for, these will be unveiled on September 17 at the Capella Singapore.
