Cover Tatler Best Takeover Series lands in Singapore this July

For the inaugural Tatler Best Takeover Series in the Lion City this month, Asia’s top culinary and mixology talents come together to curate exclusive menus over two days

The anticipation is buzzing for the first Tatler Best Takeover Series in Singapore, taking place at Tatler Best-awarded restaurant Shangri-La Singapore on July 18 and 19. The excitement is palpable as Simon Bell, the head chef of modern European restaurant Origin Grill, is teaming up with four of Asia’s award-winning chefs for exclusive six-hands dinners over two nights. These experiences are exclusively available on priceless.com.

The first night (July 18) unites Bell with Darren Teoh, the chef-owner of contemporary Malaysian restaurant Dewakan in Kuala Lumpur, and Santiago Fernandez, the head chef of Peruvian establishment Maz in Tokyo. Proving that cuisines know no boundaries, their collaboration features Fernandez's Japanese terroir with Peruvian influences, Teoh’s mastery of forgotten Malaysian native ingredients, and Bell’s command of smoke and flame with his Josper grill.
