So you’ve probably heard about a massive food festival – “Singapore’s most ambitious and wide-ranging food festival to date” – coming to Resorts World Sentosa from 21 to 24 September 2017. But what does that even mean for me? How is it going to be different from any other food festival? It means you’ll get to do 7 things not otherwise possible if not for ‘The GREAT Food Festival’ (TGFF).
1. Savour over 100 exquisite dishes from Michelin-starred and award-winning restaurants around the world

Sure, you don’t have to come to TGFF just to taste Michelin-starred cuisine – but we’re talking about Michelin-starred and award-winning restaurant chefs from 5 continents and over 16 different countries all converging in a single venue. That means you’ll get to sample their creations (from S$10) all at once!
2. Get star struck

Get up close and personal with over 40 culinary celebrities from around the world. You may have seen them on Reality TV or even follow them on Instagram. Now’s your chance to meet and greet them in person. And of course, get your celebrity selfies with your favourite world-renowned chefs.
3. Snap shots of Insta-worthy desserts

With over 300 delectable desserts and pastries (from S$4), the Rollin’ Sweet Times segment at TGFF is slated to be Asia’s largest dessert showcase to date. As tempting as it may be to dive right in, make sure you first get that perfect #foodporn shot to make all your Instagram followers envious! Check out our list of 10 photogenic desserts we highly recommend you try.
4. Take a trip down Heritage Lane

Whether you’re seeking to reconnect with your roots or experience other cultures, join us on a culinary globetrotting experience around the world with over 50 heritage-inspired dishes (from S$6) from Spain, Mexico, Indonesia and many more at TGFF’s Heritage Lane segment. In millennial terms, come throwback with us.
5. Bring home your own patisserie work of art

Relishing gorgeous desserts that look like fine sculptural art is one thing, making them yourself is another. At TGFF’s Cake Atelier Masterclass, you too can be a master cake decorator. Slots are limited, so be sure to sign up early!
6. Learn from the world’s best chefs

Ever wondered what secret techniques the world’s greatest chefs employ in the kitchen? Find out at Celebrity Chef Auditorium’s 45-minute live demo sessions by Michelin-starred and celebrity chefs. Entry is complimentary with purchase of the TGFF Experience Pack and Rollin’ Sweet Times Pass, but seats are limited and on a first-come first served basis, so be sure to check the schedule and arrive beforehand.
7. Taste the wonder of what happens when award-winning chefs work together

Guests at Connoisseur Collection will get to enjoy the extraordinary creations produced by the ultimate collaborations between award-winning chefs from Star Chef Arena and accomplished Resident Chefs of RWS. This sensational series of 4-hands dinners will take place on 25 and 26 September. Access to the Connoisseur Collection is sold separately from Festival tickets.
