  • Contemporary Asian Is Hot in Singapore's Dining Scene
    Contemporary Asian is hot in Singapore's dining scene Chef Alvin Leung, who is behind the three-Michelin-star Bo Innovation in Hong Kong, took 10 years to open Forbidden Duck, his first eatery in Singapore. It opened last Thursday. ST PHOTO: NG SOR LUAN Celebrity chef Alvin Leung's Forbidden Duck and MasterChef Woo Wai Leong's Restaurant Ibid are among the many Asian and modern Chinese restaurants popping up in Singapore. The Sunday Times checks them out PUBLISHED: MAY 6, 2018, 5:00 AM SGT ... Eunice Quek Asian is the flavour of the month, with the opening of a slew of new restaurants - many of which are best described as modern Chinese. High-profile ones include Madame Fan in Beach Road and Forbidden Duck by celebrity chef Alvin Leung at Marina Bay Link Mall. Local chefs are also paying homage to their roots - with MasterChef Asia winner Woo Wai Leong's Restaurant Ibid in North Canal Road and Circa 1912 by food consultant and chef David Yip. All these add to the more than 20 new restaurants and casual eateries which have opened since last month. And more are in the pipeline. There has also been a spate of brands from overseas opening here, including Took Lae Dee from Thailand and one-Michelin-starred Qi - House of Sichuan from Hong Kong. According to information from analytics platform Handshakes and the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority, 409 restaurants have opened so far this year, while 269 have closed. If the pace of restaurants opening is kept up for the rest of the year, it could well surpass last year's total of 1,084 - which itself was almost double the number in 2016.

This is true for individuals as well as organisations such as AirAsia. For 14 years, we have been enabling guests to discover more about Asia, a continent as rich in history and heritage as it is in natural beauty and charm. Not only do we provide the connectivity to enable guests to travel to destinations they have always dreamt of visiting, we also inspire new travel dreams by creating awareness of little gems that exist and which have yet to be caught in the glare of tourism’s spotlight. More than enable our guests to discover fascinating destinations, we positively encourage our Allstars to embark on their own personal journeys of discovery.
