Michelin Bib Gourmand Selection 2025: 89 eateries in Singapore make the list
CNA17-07-2025
On the hunt for your next great meal that won't break the bank? The Michelin Guide Singapore announced its 2025 Bib Gourmand Selection on Thursday (Jul 17) with 89 chosen establishments you can explore.
Separate from Michelin Stars, the Bib Gourmand distinction celebrates establishments that stand out for their exceptional value-for-money gourmet experiences, judged anonymously by Michelin Guide inspectors.
This year, out of the 89 establishments honoured, 11 are new entrants. Among the new entrants are nine new eateries, consisting of five hawker centre stalls, three restaurants, and one Singaporean street food establishment.
Contributing to the hawker fare are Lao Fu Zi Fried Kway Teow, which offers its popular dish in two sizes and a choice of black or white versions; Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee, which has been serving just one specialised dish, Hokkien fried mee with prawns, since its opening in 1960 and Song Kee Teochew Fish Porridge, renowned for its signature fish porridge and fish head bee hoon.
Also featured in the new additions are hawker stalls To-Ricos Kway Chap which serves the broad rice noodles with pork belly, trotters, intestine, tripe, and dried tofu, braised in a spiced soy-based marinade, as well as Wok Hei Hor Fun which has been a local favourite for over 30 years, serving up umami-rich fried hor fun (flat rice noodles).
Singaporean street food establishment Sin Heng Claypot Bak Koot Teh also made the cut this year. The stall has been around for over four decades and is currently run by the second-generation owner.
Their speciality, as the name suggests, is claypot bak kut teh featuring a peppery and garlicky broth that is not overwhelmingly spicy. Their claypot sesame oil chicken is also a crowd favourite, where succulent wings are coated in a sauce boasting nutty aromas and mild sweetness.
The lineup of restaurants this year spans multiple cuisines as well. First up, Thai restaurant Jungle, which offers a warm atmosphere within its simple, cosy space, featuring exposed beams and wooden furnishings. The chef skilfully transforms fresh produce into modern Thai dishes, masterfully balancing sweet, sour, and salty notes with fiery heat for maximum flavour. Its signatures include the chargrilled pork jowl and the yellow crab curry.
Meanwhile, Kotuwa offers a vibrant journey through Sri Lankan cuisine where every dish, from quintessential Sri Lankan street food to curries, is packed with robust flavours. Their strength lies in seafood, particularly crab prepared in myriad ways, such as the standout crab curry, with its balanced, layered flavours and subtle warmth of cinnamon.

Lastly, if you're looking for authentic nasi lemak, Kitchenman Nasi Lemak won't let you down. Served in a simple, inviting setting, the Malaysian chef cooks rice in coconut milk with pandan leaves, complemented by garnishes of fried anchovies, peanuts, fried egg, sliced cucumber, and spicy sambal.
Out of the 11 new entrants, two moved from the Michelin Selected category, which recognises restaurants that offer high-quality cuisine and a good dining experience. One of which is the popular Boon Tong Kee, whose original branch at Balestier Road remains a favourite since its opening in 1983, drawing crowds with its signature boiled chicken, which boosts succulent and tender meat. Diners seeking a full zi char feast will also find plenty of dishes to enjoy.
The other is Ji Ji Noodle House, which has been serving its signature wanton noodles since 1965. Available as soup or dry versions, the noodles are served with char siew, deep-fried wonton, and vegetables, accompanied with wanton soup.
'The expansion of Singapore's Bib Gourmand selection this year, with over 70 per cent of the establishments being street food stalls, stands as a strong testament to Singapore's unwavering commitment to preserving its hawker culture amidst an evolving culinary landscape,' said Gwendal Poullennec, the international director of the Michelin Guide. 'Our inspectors were not only pleased to discover more local culinary gems, but also to celebrate the enduring legacy of the long-serving heritage hawkers.'
He added: 'It is truly heartening to witness the younger generation entering the food and beverage industry, dedicated to continuing their family's cherished recipes.'
