There’s delight for the food and drink industry in Suffolk this evening as a popular Bury St Edmunds restaurant celebrates being awarded one Michelin Star - the first ever achieved in the county.
Pea Porridge, opened by chef Justin Sharp and wife Jurga 11 years ago, has held a Michelin Bib Gourmand for several years and is often praised and recognised by leading guide books.
Justin’s food is fuelled by a passion for the best seasonal produce, with the chef often singing the praises of the small producers he supports in his kitchen.
Suntec City is where you can find plentiful of dining options, especially Chinese and local restaurants.
This includes Crystal Jade Hong Kong Kitchen, Din Tai Fung, Paradise Dynasty, Soup Restaurant, COCA, White Restaurant, Ho Fook Hei Soy Sauce Chicken, Tim Ho Wan, Shi Jian Hot Pot and Yong Xing Teochew Porridge and more.
If you are finding somewhere to celebrate with the family or have small group gatherings over sumptuous Chinese cuisine,
here are 10 places you can head to:
(Do check with individual restaurants as there may be varied opening hours during festive periods. Reservations, if applicable, is also recommended.)

Singaporeans love queuing, especially for things that are famous or highly raved about. So if an eatery wins the Michelin Bib Gourmand title, you can expect throngs of Singaporeans to form snaking queues outside the store soon after.
For the uninitiated, the Michelin Bib Gourmand is an award given to restaurants and street food establishments that offer diners very good value for money, with a complete and high quality menu priced at a maximum of SG$45 , as stated in the Michelin Guide. It is not to be confused with the Michelin Star or Michelin Recommendations.
As a self-proclaimed foodie, I don t mind waiting in an arduously long queue just to eat at an eatery with such a prestigious title. However, it can be quite upsetting when the food falls short of one s expectations, which I have unfortunately experienced with a number of award-winning dining establishments.

A piping bowl of ramen is probably the go-to Japanese comfort food for many Singaporeans, especially if it’s sweater weather.
TBH, nothing beats the authentic experience of noisily slurping down ramen at a hole-in-the-wall joint in a Kyoto alley.
Also TBH, many outstanding Japanese ramen brands have made their way to our shores, so there’s nothing stopping us from recreating that comfort eating (or should we say, slurping) experience in the most genuine way possible.
Here are our top picks of Japanese ramen restaurants in Singapore to get your fix.
