August 12, 2021
69 Bib Gourmand venues spanning hawker stalls, restaurants, and street food establishments are listed in the MICHELIN Guide Singapore 2021, 12 of which are new entrants.
The new entrants to the Bib Gourmand selection include 3 restaurants and 9 hawker stalls. Among the new restaurants, Da Shi Jia Big Prawn Mee (Killiney) serves prawn noodle soup and fried prawn bee hoon that diners can customise with a variety of noodles and sizes ranging from regular to XXL.
Kotuwa (Jalan Besar) offers hoppers and seafood-focussed dishes by a chef-owner of Sri Lankan heritage, while The Coconut Club (Ann Siang) enriches coconut-centric dishes such as nasi lemak with Malaysia-imported coconuts for extra flavour and authenticity.
In addition, the 9 hawker establishments offer a span of iconic Singaporean fare such as bak kut teh, laksa, and sliced fish soup. They include Fei Fei Roasted Noodle and Heng Heng Cooked Food in Yuhua Village Market and Food Centre; Jian Bo Tiong Bahru Shui Kueh and Soh Kee Cooked Food in Jurong West 505 Market & Food Centre; Lai Heng Handmade Teochew Kueh (Yuhua Market & Hawker Centre), Hainan Zi (Chong Pang Market and Food Centre), Joo Siah Bak Koot Teh (Kai Xiang Food Centre), Jun Yuan House Of Fish (Old Airport Road Food Centre) and Kwang Kee Teochew Fish Porridge (Newton Food Centre).
In total, this year’s selection features 42 hawker stalls, 6 street food establishments and 21 restaurants that front a range of cuisines reflective of Singapore’s identity as a cultural melting pot with a unique culinary heritage and tradition. These establishments are nominated by Michelin inspectors that offer diners very good value for money, with a complete and high-quality menu priced at a maximum of SG$45.
The selection, together with the recent addition of Singapore’s street food on the UNESCO Representative List of Intangible Culture Heritage of Humanity in 2020, is a clear recognition of the city-state’s commitment to protect and promote hawker culture for future generations.
The 2021 edition of the MICHELIN Guide Singapore will be published only in digital form via MICHELIN Guide’s official website and the MICHELIN Guide mobile app (iOS and Android). A selection of restaurants will be available for order on MICHELIN Guide Singapore’s food delivery partner GrabFood immediately.
