Dine in style while the forum gathers vintners, chefs, and restaurateurs to talk business. The list of what to eat and who to meet is endless, with gala lunch and dinner dates spanning the entire fête.
Get set to witness magical collaborations between executive Singaporean chefs and renowned culinary icons from around the world. But witnessing the cooking is merely a precursor to savouring the decadent culinary pleasures crafted by the giants of haute cuisine. The wine component of the festival is equally important and winemakers from the wine producing regions such as Bordeaux, Burgundy, Tuscany, Pomerol, Spain and Australia are welcomed to Singapore where some of their finest vintages are showcased to the local community. These renowned winemakers will conduct a vertical tasting of their prized pours as well as pair some of their best vintages at specially paired dinners assigned to some of the visiting Master Chefs.
The World Gourmet Summit also hosts special workshops for the general public and food and beverage professionals alike where they can come together to learn, discuss and understand the latest trends, developments and nuances in the culinary world. So if you enjoy indulging in the finest wines and delectable world cuisine, then mark the month of April in your travel itinerary with the hottest culinary events that you want to attend.
