Gordon Ramsay accepts Singapore’s hawker food challenge
-
SINGAPORE – It’s on.
Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has officially accepted a challenge from a group of local food bloggers and SingTel to see if Singapore’s hawker food can match up to the standards of the prestigious Michelin Guide.
The culinary contest will see Ramsay pit his skills against three hawkers, who will be selected through a public poll on the HungryGoWhere website, in a cook-off.
“Frankly, I’m not an expert on Singapore food. I’m not sure it is as good as the Singaporeans actually say it is. Trust me, I’ve got to see this for myself and see what they have to offer,” Ramsay said in a video response (see above).
“One thing I’m certain of is that people like my version better.
“SingTel, I truly accept your challenge. Game on.”
Game on, Gordon.

Because food forums, and websites like to mislead. If you don't want your favourite stall to be crowded when you go, would you recommend it to the world?
-
I always wonder why people mindlessly gravitate towards the hawker stall with the longest queue.
-
i will queue if i want to eat that stall. and that stall only.
-
Pick 3 of 12 hawkers.
-
I picked my 3.
