The Miele Guide 2009/2010Launches At Star-Studded Gala Dinner
The 2009/2010 edition of The Miele Guide was officially launched on 30 September 2009 at a red-carpet extravaganza at The Fullerton Hotel Singapore. In front of a select, celebrity-studded crowd of some of Asia’s most celebrated chefs and restaurateurs, as well as regional and international food critics and journalists, Asia’s Top 20 Restaurants were announced and the staggering 450 restaurants that made into this year’s guide were revealed.
The 360 guests at this year’s gala dinner were lavishly fed by guest chefs Takashi Kimura (Sage Restaurant & Wine Bar, Kuala Lumpur), Rahul Akerkar (Indigo, Mumbai), Diego Martinelli (The Lighthouse, Singapore) and Janice Wong (2am:dessertbar, Singapore). Using the finest quality ingredients sponsored by Indoguna Singapore – widely recognised as one of the country’s leading purveyors of fine foods – and paired with an extraordinary selection of wines jointly sponsored by the Italian Trade Commission (I.C.E. – Istituto nazionale per il Commercio Estero) and the Italian Wine List, the four-course meal married the best of Asia’s rich culinary heritage with contemporary fine-dining sensibilities to create a feast that was truly Modern Asia.
For Asia’s Top 20 restaurants, there were custom-designed crystal trophies by renowned German glassmaker Zwiesel 1872. Conceived by designer Angelika Brig especially for The Miele Guide, each trophy was painstakingly handmade by artisanal glass-blowers to the most exacting standards of craftsmanship and artistry. And for the recipients of the Miele–At-Sunrice scholarship and the Miele–WSQ–At-Sunrice scholarship, they have earned the opportunity to attend the WSQ Diploma course in Culinary Arts at the renowned At-Sunrice Globalchef Academy.
