Gastronomes, take note. From May 15 to 28, Marina Bay Sands will host its inaugural two-week food and wine festival, “Where Your Senses Feast”.
With over 30 unique dining experiences, the festival is part of a series celebrating food, wellness, music, and more at the integrated resort.
Choosing where to eat will be worth it. Among the chefs leading these sensory escapades are renowned Australian restaurateur and chef Luke Mangan, Asia’s Best Female Chef 2023 Johanna Siy, and Stefan Stiller of three-Michelin-starred Taian Table in Shanghai.
On May 19 and 20, chef Stiller joins Marina Bay Sands’ in-house stars Greg Bess and Tetsuya Wakuda for the headline event, Six Star Dinner. Enjoy a five-course sit-down in an inflatable pop-up pavilion with astrological and elemental themes at The Event Plaza.
The Event Plaza will also host other feasts, including Mangan’s four-course Great Chef Showcase (May 17 and 18) with art installations and performances, and In A Culinary Symphony with Chef Ton on May 21. Bangkok’s Thitid “Ton” Tassanakajohn’s four-course modern Thai is served amidst live piano music and whimsical floral arrangements.
Then Jordy Navarra of Toyo Eatery in Manila and Johanne Siy of Lolla Singapore take diners on a sensory journey accompanied by theatrical performances during their Marquee Experiential Dining (May 23 and 24).
There’s something for everyone here: mixology masterclasses; rooftop parties; eating in one-of-a-kind settings at ArtScience Museum’s Future World and Marquee nightclub; Mott 32’s Peking duck and Champagne pairing; Koma’s wagyu flights; and Rise’s one-day takeover by four award-winning restaurants, and more.
The festival also ends on a high note. On May 27, enjoy an Epicurean Journey lunch buffet at Rise or escape to the Amalfi Coast at the Lavo Party Brunch: Festa Del Vino edition. Later, Spago Bar & Lounge has a special one-night collaboration with Bincho at its monthly “Shades of Spago” event.
