A continued move towards sustainability, influx of Michelin-starred restaurants and more
2016 had arguably been an exciting year for foodies, especially with the inaugural launch of the Michelin Dining Guide.
Humble hawker stalls were propelled to fame while restaurants raised the bar with chef collaborations and pop-ups.
At the same time, a bunch of too-adorable-to-be-true character themed cafes found their place in the hearts of many.
Those with an incurable sweet tooth were thrilled with the likes of molten cakes, tarts and even savoury-sweet salted egg croissants.

5. Influx of Michelin-starred restaurants
This year, Singapore welcomed its inaugural edition of Michelin Guide 2016 and as they say, the rest is history.
Since then, we’ve seen various regional Michelin-starred establishments make their way to our shores, from ramen restaurant Tsuta to roast specialty Kam’s Roast.
Meanwhile, homegrown Michelin-starred hawker stall Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Rice & Noodles has expanded with Hawker Chan. We’re keeping our fingers crossed for more culinary bigwigs to launch here!
