Singapore Restaurant Month: Eat your way through the 50 best spots in town
updated the 6 October 2015 à 23:02
The first ever Singapore Restaurant Month celebrates SG50 with a line up of the most unique culinary creations. Aren’t your stomachs grumbling already?
2015 is proving to be a good food year for Singapore, with the World Gourmet Summit, Savour Food Festival, World Street Food Congress and many other foodie events that were hosted in the Lion City in the last 6 months itself.
Now, brace yourselves for yet another culinary escapade as the first ever Singapore Restaurant Month brings you the best 50 restaurants in town, showcasing their most unique culinary creations.
Organized by the Restaurant Association of Singapore (RAS), the inaugural event held from 1 July to 10 August will be celebrating Singapore’s 50th National Day with a wide variety of cuisines –Chinese, Indian, Japanese, Korean, French, American, Spanish and more – to reflect the cosmopolitan culinary scene we’re accustomed to.
While food is no doubt the highlight of Singapore Restaurant Month, the event comes with a positive twist: all participating restaurants are to use only local produce in their gastronomic creations.
In a country that imports most of its food from abroad, this is certainly a welcome push by the powers that be to support local farms and raise awareness of the quality of local produce for F&B operators. In short, the move is a great stepping stone for the local culinary industry and a better way to enjoy fresher food.
Some of the participating restaurants are traditional heritage eateries such as Prima Tower Revolving Restaurant, Red Star Restaurant, and Islamic Restaurant.
So fellow Singaporeans, seize the opportunity to support local produce and savour unique dishes from the best 50 restaurants in your backyard!
As far as #SG50 celebrations go, this is probably the most Singaporean of them all!
