KOCHI:
For the first time in its history, the Singapore Food Festival (SFF), Singapore’s only event dedicated to local cuisine and local F&B talent, will take on a virtual format this year. Themed “Rediscover the Foodie in You”, SFF 2020 will see more than 25 F&;B partners coming onboard to serve up gastronomic experiences for festival goers to enjoy at home.
Taking place across the next two weekends (August 21–23 and August 28–30 August), Singapore’s dining scene will come to life in the form of virtual food tours, live masterclasses, chef collaborations, food bundles and limited edition food merchandise. This year’s festival line-up comprises of live masterclasses featuring some of the top names in Singapore’s F&B scene – such as award-winning pastry chef Cheryl Koh of Tarte by Cheryl Koh (presenting an éclair-making masterclass – left), chef Julien Royer of three Michelin-starred Odette (who will put together one of his most popular salads, Promenade A Singapour, created to showcase farmed-in-Singapore greens), and bartending honchos Colin Chia and Charmaine Thio of speakeasy bar Nutmeg & Clove, ranked #32 in Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2020 (teaching the basics of cocktail making and demonstrating how to create two different tipples).
