To mark the 6th anniversary of the MICHELIN Guide Singapore selection, Michelin has unveiled its MICHELIN Star restaurant selection for 2022, together with the Bib Gourmand recommendations and MICHELIN selected restaurants.

“What a pleasure to be back in Singapore after this unprecedented crisis. This destination hasn’t at all lost what seduced our inspectors in the first place: a wonderfully blossoming diversity of cuisine types, renowned chefs keen on displaying their passion and skills, and young and promising talents ready to realise their dreams and polish their know-how,” says Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of the MICHELIN Guide. “There is no doubt that Singapore is still a culinary gem, and thanks to the particularly impressive resilience of all the professionals from the industry, local and international gourmets will be able to experience unforgettable gastronomic journeys in the Lion City once again.”

2 New Restaurants Receive Two MICHELIN Stars

Singapore adds two new restaurants to its Two MICHELIN Starred restaurant selection this year. Named after a novel by an Australian author, Cloudstreet delivers an unforgettable gastronomic journey that marries disparate cultures and influences in an artistic expression.

Thevar’s creative multi-course menu rooted in Indian traditions and crafted with European techniques receives praise from the MICHELIN Guide inspectors for its fascinating combination of flavours and the Penang-born Indian chef’s unique perspective. The food here is described as an array of Indian-inspired cuisine with a fun, modern gaze.

Cloudstreet and Thevar join 5 other restaurants with Two MICHELIN Stars in Singapore, namely JAAN by Kirk Westaway, Saint Pierre, Shisen Hanten, Shoukouwa, and Waku Ghin.

7 New Restaurants Receive One MICHELIN Star

The 12-seater kappo sushi restaurant Hamamoto greets gourmets with only the finest: from handmade ceramic lacquerware to the house sake, to dishes that are proof of the chef’s craftsmanship and his over 20 years of experience.

Marguerite offers a unique dining experience with its location in Singapore’s renowned Gardens by the Bay. Gourmets get to experience courses made with seasonal ingredients that are deceptively simple, but when eaten, reveal bold flavours matching the showy colourful blooms.

Nae:um refers to a fragrance that evokes memories. The restaurant offers innovative courses that feature seasonal ingredients. Dishes are precisely executed and presented in an ethereal, refreshing manner, but have inklings of their Korean roots.

Rêve brings out the best in Japanese ingredients with classic French techniques and contemporary plating. The fish course is the main draw that would never disappoint.
