We’re positively ecstatic that you’re in town for the MasterChef Pop-up Bar, so we’ve put together a handy cheat sheet that’ll get you savvy with the best that Singapore has to offer. Please don’t yell at us if you don't like our recommendations…
1. We know you and your protégé Gordon Ramsay aren’t on the best of terms, so we’ll understand if you have second thoughts about swinging by Bread Street Kitchen. Perhaps, a meal at Jason Atherton’s Pollen instead? He was another one of your mentees after all!
2. Of course, you shouldn’t miss out on trying Singapore’s smorgasbord of local delights either. Sure, you can start with the Michelin Bib Gourmand winners, but that’s just the tip of our culinary iceberg.
3. Apart from your kitchen rockstar personality, your hair is practically a treasure of its own. Now if the humid weather here is getting to your luscious locks, here are the best places in Singapore to get a man-perm.
4. While the food scene here is stellar, we have to admit there are some trends you’d probably throw a fit at (oh the honour!). We can just imagine you screaming, “Why is there truffle oil in EVERYTHING!?” And hey, we wonder what you’ll think about salted egg yolk oozing outta everything too…
5. If you need to calm yourself after being aghast at seeing synthetic truffle oil in everything, we recommend you take a load off and grab a drink (or a dozen) at some of Singapore’s best cocktail bars. Or for somewhere more clandestine, these hidden speakeasies will keep your presence on the down-low… hopefully.
