Christmas is our favourite season of the year, a time when we give ourselves a few moments to count our blessings and look forward to a brand new year. It’s also when we pull out all the stops and party. We’ve got you covered in that department with our #FestiveIssue. It’s rich with feasting and gifting ideas, stories about what Christmas feasts are made of around the world (not just Turkey!), non-vintage champagnes and champagne cocktails, nine hometown festive recipes from top chefs in Singapore, and a list of online specialist grocers that will help you bring something special to the table this year. Most of all, don’t miss our special report on Sussex sparkling wine producers who are making a name for English wines.  
 
Other tidbits to check out: Our interviews with Singapore’s latest Bocuse d’Or hopeful, chef Noel Ng, and Shigeyuki Kusunoki, director of Kusunoki Winery in Nagano, Japan; a sea sojourn through Japan’s coastal cities; and new restaurant openings and menus from Adrift, Bayswater Kitchen, Nude Grill and more.

In the last 10 years the Food and Beverage (F&B) industry has evolved significantly. Technology, e-commerce, and social media have created new markets—and changed the way we eat and live. Imagine a world without Deliveroo, GrabFood, RedMart or Chope. It’s probably hard to do. Yet these advancements all happened within the last decade. If new innovations are being born this quickly today, what will the next decade—the 2020s—have in store for us? What will the unicorns of the next decade look like and how will they change our lives? As the last chapter of 2019 comes to a close, we look back on some of the innovations and trends that have impacted businesses and consumers, and more importantly, attempt to answer the question that everyone has at the back of their mind, “What’s next?” Read all about how online food delivery service providers changed the habits of diners and the way restaurants do business (p54), and how consumers’ demand for transparency and growing awareness of food sustainability have spurred food companies and entrepreneurs to think out-of-the-box, offering solutions like plant-based faux meat, a zero-waste shopping platform, and more (p58). Find out what industry luminaries like Desmond Lim from Les Amis Group, Petr Raba from Marriott International Asia Pacific, and Peggy Chan of the new Nectar in Hong Kong have to say about how the F&B industry may pan out in the new decade (p65). From what we gather from industry leaders, cloud kitchens, and using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance consumer experience are just some of the things to come. And if the predictions come even partially to fruition, the next 10 years look set to be exciting for the industry. Stay tuned and prepare yourself for what comes next. Enjoy this issue!

As we celebrate the launch of the 22nd edition of our annual
dining guide, it dawned upon me that we are in the golden
era of recognition for the culinary industry, with a slew of
internationally recognised awards like the Michelin Guide,
the World’s 50 Best and Asia’s 50 Best, doing its part to not
only elevate the profession but help thrust outstanding chefs into the
global limelight. But apart from offering affirmation to chefs and their
teams who work hard year-round to ensure we always have delicious
meals on our plates, I see these awards as an additional platform for chefs
to share their ideas and causes. In this spirit, we’ve dedicated this issue to
our award winners including chef Peter Rollinson of Flutes Restaurant.
Bar, chef Mike Tan of Madame Fan, chef Shigeru Koizumi of ESORA, and
chef Tristin Farmer of Restaurant Zén, who share their thoughts on what
defines a top restaurant and how much awards and recognition matter to
them. Turn to p26 to see the full list of winners.
In the rest of the magazine, you will also discover interesting reads
about some of the issues plaguing our food industry—sustainability
and longevity—where our writers delve deep into the respective topics
and shares their findings on what it takes for a restaurant to be truly
sustainable (p48), and what chefs are doing to survive and thrive in a
highly competitive and challenging dining scene (p38). For those looking
for travel inspiration, we’ve got great suggestions for you to plan a short
foodie getaway to Bintan (p78) or a gastronomic trip to France (p80)
where you’ll get to experience some of the best produce the country has
to offer.

I recently read a local news report about Singapore being named the 10th most-visited destination for travellers on Twitter and the top reason that attracted these tourists to our sunny shores is none other than good local food like chilli crab and chicken rice. It’s easy to see why foodies from around the world are willing to travel thousands of miles just to savour Singaporean dishes like satay, rojak, laksa, bak kut teh and more—the food is diverse and boasts a rich melange of flavours distilled from diverse cultures and traditions. While Singapore is famous for its hawker food, the country is also considered a hotspot for top-class gastronomy and drinks, home to local restaurants such as Odette, Burnt Ends, Waku Ghin and Les Amis. In fact, this food loving city state recently played host to The World’s 50 Best Restaurants 2019—the first country in Asia to host the prestigious culinary awards. 

With food being such a big part of Singapore’s culture, what better way to celebrate the nation’s 54th birthday this month than by recognising the people who have made significant contributions to the F&B industry and celebrate the impact they make in bringing Singapore to the world (p51). We also shine the spotlight on chefs like chef Dave Pynt of Burnt Ends restaurant (No.10 on the Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants List 2019 and chef Julien Royer of Odette (No. 18 in The World’s 50 Best Restaurants 2019), and companies that have made a name for themselves in the local food industry and are now leaving a mark outside Singapore with their overseas venture. We also delve into the stories behind some of the favourite local snacks that travellers love to bring home with them like IRVIN’s salted egg fish skin, The Golden Duck chilli crab seaweed tempura, and Prima Taste’s range of premixes of Singapore dishes (p42).

Who would have thought that a plant-based burger patty made from soy protein, coconut oil,
potato protein and heme could look and taste so much like real meat. We’re talking about
the meatless patty by Impossible Foods that offers the flavour, aroma and texture you expect
from a beef burger. The Silicon Valley based company created the product with the aim of
eliminating the need for animals as a food production technology and making the global food
system more sustainable. This is just one example of how technology and innovation is changing the way we eat
and drink. As consumers become increasingly concerned about the harmful effects that food production have on
the environment, and demand for healthier ingredients and transparency about where their meals come from,
food companies and entrepreneurs are stepping up to meet these challenges. In this issue, we pay homage to
game changers who are revolutionising the way things are done in the F&B industry (p59). We also take a look at
some of the innovations and ideas that are rippling through the industry—think a waste-free shopping platform,
non-alcoholic spirits, and a food market powered by a futuristic fully-automated ordering experience (p40). A
Singapore-based startup Shiok Meats also hopes to build a sustainable future with lab-grown seafood (p68).
Another interesting discovery we made while putting this issue together is healthy snacks made from marine
ingredients like kelp and water lily seeds. As technology continues to improve and natural ingredients become
easier to cultivate, the trend for innovative food products and services are likely to continue, and we are truly
excited for what’s to come.

Enjoy this issue!

This issue, we consider the well-loved yet elusive concept of craft or artisanship. 

A thick, crispy and chewy crust. A deep, earthy, wheaty flavour. True artisanal bread, made with wholesome ingredients and passionate craftsmanship is easily one of life’s greatest pleasures. The same can be said about artisanal chocolate, cheese, coffee, and the list goes on. The quality and commitment that goes into a handcrafted product is what sets them apart from their manufactured sibling. 

But what defines artisanal? The word has in recent years been plastered on almost every food item you can think of, from chips to peanut butter to bottled drinks. Can foods that are made using machines, but following your grandmother’s handed-down recipe, be considered artisanal? 

To share some views on the issue, a group of F&B insiders give the lowdown on the real meaning of this buzzword. We also shine the spotlight on five local craftsmen who share what artisanal means to them and if artisanal product should command a high price tag. 
If you’re looking to try some artisanal produce, we’ve put together a list of places you can visit to get your fix. 

In our coverage on wine, we have a chat with Chris Hatcher, chief winemaker of Wolf Blass, and highlight some of the best examples of Bordeaux-style blends in the world. This issue is also chock-full of travel inspiration from traversing New Zealand to discovering charming Cotswolds. These stories may just ignite your wanderlust. 


The concept of luxury is ever-changing. Not just in the material sense, the luxuries of time, space, work and passions continue to evolve, and so too in the fine dining scene. While it used to mean starched tablecloths and elaborate decor with chefs hidden from diners, today though, it’s vastly different. 

In this issue, find out which revolutionary establishments are setting the stage for a new era in fine dining; delve into vanilla, a most fastidious spice; read about top chefs’ prized ingredients; and learn how elevated versions of pantry staples like salt and butter are becoming the new luxury ingredients.  

What’s more, we view luxury through the prisms of chefs and industry insiders such as chef Tetsuya Wakuda of Waku Ghin, Arrif Ziaudeen of Chope, Yenn Wong of Jia Holdings, and Gerald Lu of Praelum Wine Bistro, and serve up gorgeous destinations that will leave you having the most delicious time of your life.

Our slate of stories takes a peek into the psyche of these outstanding chefs and restaurants.

Happy reading!

This year, Singapore holds the chairmanship of ASEAN, a grouping of 10 Southeast Asian countries. No doubt, this holds greater diplomatic than gastronomic significance, but for the gourmet, it serves well as a reminder that local cuisine has a regional context. While each country holds dear the heritages of their own cuisines, geographical proximity and common experiences mean a certain shared food history.
 
Our cover story ‘A Journey of Flavours’ connects the dots in this respect, tracing the mutual influences and evolution of Southeast Asian cuisine. ‘ASEAN community’, takes us on a meander through the market enclaves of Singapore, rich with Southeast Asian produce, while ‘Beyond Basic’ uncovers some unusual Southeast Asian herbs. 
 
Against the backdrop of regional context, it’s the chefs and restaurateurs ultimately who make our region’s vibrant cuisine come alive. In that vein, we pick out some of the hottest restaurants in the region putting a vocabulary to modern Southeast Asian cuisine. We also seek insights from Southeast Asian chefs and restaurateurs working at home and abroad.
 
In our regular sections, check out new restaurant openings and fresh menus at Rang Mahal, Qi-House of Sichuan and Forbidden Duck; read our ‘Chef du Jour’ interview with Jeremmy Chiam of Le Binchotan; and hear what Chef Kantha Chookiat of River Wok restaurant has to say about innovation and Southeast Asian cooking. We also catch up with the founder of Filipino artisanal ice cream brand Carmen’s Best, visit heritage popiah maker Kway Guan Huat, and head to Bhutan for an immersive experience of peace and tranquility.  
 
For the latest in wine, read about how Languedoc-based Mas de Daumas Gassac estate makes some of the finest Bordeaux-style blends outside of Bordeaux, learn how the regions of Rheingau and Rheinhessen showcase unique winemaking styles of Germany’s wine country, and meet Veuve Cliquot’s Gaelle Goossens, who’s young, talented and leaving her mark in the wine world. 


What’s the future of food? It’s a question that opens a Pandora’s box of open-ended answers and further questions. That’s why, this issue, we decided to tackle the topic across a broad spectrum of angles.
 
For a wee bit of crystal-gazing, we ask trusted food luminaries like Loh Lik Peng and Beppe De Vito for their takes on the future of food up to 2050. In our stories on the future of food, bug snacks, 3D food printing and lab-grown meats, we think about how we can tackle pressing issues facing our food system and how our diets and lifestyles may change in a not-so-distant future. Meanwhile, avant garde chefs Ryan Clift and Han Li Guang go wild in our pictorial spread, envisioning what would be #OnTheTable in 30 years and Apollo Aquaculture tells us why vertical fish farming is the way to go. 
 
In regular news, we check out new restaurant openings and new menus at The Gyu Bar, Majestic Restaurant and more, and catch up with one of our favourite heritage heroes at Jie Bakery.  We hear ‘Chef’s Talk’ guest Ivan Brehm’s views on how technology and social media can be a double-edged sword, and interview pastry chefs duo Ben Goh, InterContinental and Carina Tan, Fairmont. Last but not least, we suss out trending wines at Pro Wein international wine far in Dusseldorf; learn how Bordeaux winemakers are giving their region’s wines a makeover, and go on a food journey in historic Delhi.

This issue, we shine the spotlight on award winners in Singapore’s Top Restaurants 2017/2018.
