  • 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.

Engineering and science generate new knowledge and skills for society to advance and prosper (10 engineering/science courses). Societies everywhere are being profoundly impacted by China, as it grows to become the world’s largest economy. Globex offers students an opportunity to study China and its peoples (2 China focused courses).
