This International Women’s Day, toast to female empowerment at these restaurants and bars with women at its helm
When it comes to the food and beverage industry, especially in the past, it was often rare to find female chefs and bartenders helming kitchens and bars. Fortunately for us, times have changed as we increasingly see women stepping into these male-dominated roles.
Today, we see prominent chefs like Canchita’s Tamara Chavez and Ichigo Ichie’s Akane Eno helming the kitchen. While bartenders Hazel Long of Junior the Pocket Bar and Yana Keller of Atlas Bar are making a name for themselves in the drink industry.
With intentional Women’s Day falling on March 8, why not head out and support some of these women? Below, we shine the spotlight on some female-led restaurants and bars to look out for in Singapore.
1. 67 Pall Mall Singapore
Opening 24 establishments in her lifetime, 67 Pall Mall’s general manager Kori Millar knows more than a thing or two about the industry. At the forefront of welcoming the new generation of wine enthusiasts in Singapore, Millar has been a part of the private wine club’s team since day one, lending her expertise to the design of the club’s space and experience even before its launch.
Her previous roles in the industry have taken her all around the globe, including Sydney, New Zealand, the UK and the Caribbean, providing her with a unique global outlook. Millar’s extensive background makes her the ideal lead for the members-only establishment that houses over 1,000 different wines from every corner of the world.
