Noel TeoThe bi-annual gourmet event which saw more than 24,000 bookings earlier in March this year, Singapore Restaurant Week returns for the 2nd time from 9 – 16 October 2011 with a bigger selection of quality restaurants. American Express is the presenting partner for the 3rd edition of the event.
With as many as 87 restaurants lined up for diners during the week-long gastronomic affair, organiser DiningCity.com also managed to include new participating establishments like Au Jardin, Buyan Russian Haute Cuisine & Caviar Bar, Table At 7 – and that’s just a appetiser.
Some of the current participants include Stellar@1-Altitude and KU DÉ TA.
Managing Director of DiningCity Singapore, Miss Desi Wentink, says, “This is the 3rd time we are organising Singapore Restaurant Week and we are looking forward to a great response as diners can expect a diverse selection of new dining choices during this upcoming Restaurant Week.”
As a proud sponsor of Restaurant Week, BMW Asia has dedicated 9 October 2011, Sunday, exclusively to its BMW customers. BMW owners can make bookings for other days of the week as well (subject to availability).
How Restaurant Week works
Restaurant Week features middle to top-level quality restaurants (including Michelin-star establishments), which offer the public a premium three-course menu for a fixed price during an exclusive one-week period.
Limited seats will be offered for exclusive three-course dinners at an irresistible price of S$35++ and three-course lunches at S$25++ (Note: Some restaurants may charge a supplement of S$15 for lunch and S$20 for dinner, thus the set lunch or dinner may cost $40++ and $55++ respectively. Terms and conditions apply).
All bookings can be made online HERE.
Fun fact: in Europe, people even set their alarm clocks to be the first to reserve a Restaurant Week table in top restaurants! That’s how frenzied it gets!
