The Michelin Guide added 17 food stalls and two restaurants in Singapore to its Bib Gourmand list this week.
In total, 79 dining options within the city-state made the list, up from 67 last yr.
The Bib Gourmand category recognizes inexpensive eateries which are chosen by anonymous inspectors, based on the corporate’s press release.
Two restaurants added to the list in 2023 are Kok Sen, which has been operating for over 50 years and serves local dishes equivalent to chicken with shrimp paste; and The Coconut Club, which has a coconut-themed menu featuring the best-selling nasi lemak set, based on a press release.
The 17 food stalls, a lot of which serve a single essential course, are:
- Beach Road Fish Head Bee Hoon – Sliced Bee Fish (rice noodles)
- Du Du Shou Shi – tu tu kueh (steamed rice cake)
- Heng Kee – Curry broth and made-to-order tofu puffs and fishcakes
- Ji De Lai Hainanese Chicken Rice – Chicken Rice Sets
- Kwee Heng – braised boneless duck
- Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee — hokkien fried mee (egg noodles) with shrimp
- Yeah. 18 Zion Road Fried Kway Teow – Kway Teow noodles
- Singapore Fried Hokkien Mee — hokkien mee
- Soon, Huat, “dry” or “soup” noodles.
- Tai Seng Fish Soup – fish soup
- Young Chun Wan Ton Noodle – springy egg noodles
At the Geylang Bahru Market and Food Center, the Hui Wei Chilli Ban Mee Ribbon Noodle Stand, Spinach Soup and Cheok Kee were awarded. The latter is known for its soy-marinated duck dish, Michelin said.
Three more stalls are positioned within the Adam Food Center – Adam Rd Noo Cheng Big Prawn Noodle, Bahrakath Mutton Soup and Selamat Datang Warong Pak Sapari, which Michelin says is thought for its Malay noodle dishes.
The full number of Michelin-starred restaurants in Singapore will likely be announced on June 27 on the awards ceremony.
