This festive season, Go Vegetarian with Celebrity Chefs in Singapore! Isn’t there something about celebrity restaurants that makes them irresistible? They come with the assurance of excellent food, amazing presentation and an awesome vibe. Plus, we in Singapore love everything branded and celebrity, don’t we?
I can only think of two reasons that would make us rethink going to a celebrity restaurant – one, a lack of vegetarian options and two, the cost. While, we can’t really help you with the second, we decided it was time to look into the first, especially with the festive season upon us.
So anyway, once we started researching, we realized that the vegetarian scenario has definitely changed over the last couple of years and quite a few celebrity restaurants in Singapore are now offering vegetarian menus. Although we haven’t visited them all (umm, guess why), these restaurants are backed by names that are renowned the world over, they have a reputation to live up to, and they pretty much set the highest standards in the food industry. So we’re guessing these should be some of the best vegetarian eats in town. And a few of them are not insanely priced either. How thrilling is that!
So, fellow vegetarians, go all out and treat yourself to an indulgent meal at one of these vegetarian-friendly fine-dining eateries with our list of 9 Celebrity Chef Restaurants in Singapore, that offer Vegetarian Menus, and then some more.
Bread Street Kitchen by Gordon Ramsay
Who doesn’t know Gordon Ramsay; the obnoxious boss in Hell’s Kitchen who is also an equally passionate, wonderful chef? Having trained under some of the world’s leading chefs, he is one of the most widely recognised chefs in the world, with 7 Michelin stars to boast of. His Singaporean venture, Bread Street Kitchen is the perfect place for casual dining in a sophisticated setting, with English classics done to perfection.
Not only is Bread Street Kitchen offering a dedicated vegetarian menu, they’re also offering a dedicated vegan menu. The vegan menu is comparatively limited though, with one starter – Flatbread, spinach, red chili, shallots, S$20++); 3 different fruit/vegetable/grain salads; a main – Mushroom risotto, deep fried enoki, frissé S$32++) and 3 sides. The Flatbread (picture above) is quite good.
Vegetarians get more variety with dishes like Cider and onion soup with cheddar cheese toastie; Red cabbage, kale, carrots, candied pecans, alfalfa sprouts, pomegranate, orange dressing salad (S$13/25++); and Basil and ricotta cannelloni, pine nuts, tomato sauce, Parmesan cheese, to name a few.

Hungry still? Try the Shiitake and Mitsuba Tagliatelle (smoked chili oil, taleggio, S$28++). In fact, this menu looks like most, if not all of it, might be vegan. Dig in!

Long Chim by David Thompson

Celebrity chef David Thompson’s Long Chim is a much loved Thai restaurant that offers a Vegetarian Set Menu (S$69++). This is apart from the vegetarian dishes on their regular menu, and a budget-friendly Vegetarian Weekend Brunch Menu at just S$49++. Inspired by the roadside eateries of Bangkok, the place serves authentic Thai street style dishes in a casual yet vibrant and chic ambience. This is one celebrity restaurant we have gorged at. Our favourite dish here would have to be the extremely flavourful Chive Cakes (S$15++). Also excellent are the Silken beancurd shitake mushroom garlic chives, Rice noodles with Chinese Broccoli and Soy Egg (which was excluded upon request for us) and the Banana Roti. The Vegetarian Set Menu will indulge you with even more mouthwatering treats like Grilled long eggplant mint coriander shallots, Aromatic vegetable curry tomatoes cauliflowers red shallots and Rin’s thai tea ice cream pistachio young coconut.

We tried Ocean’s Vegetarian Set Lunch Menu a couple of years ago and the food was fabulous (although the current menu offers different dishes).
At S$108, the Vegetarian Set Dinner Menu offers 2 additional dishes to those in the lunch menu – Roasted Beet (Grilled Lettuce/ Goat Cream Cheese/ Beet Reduction) and (Butternut Cream Roasted Butternut/ Scallion/ Pumpkin Seed).

And Then Some

While the celebrity chefs mentioned above have taken the trouble to demarcate veg menus, not all are at par. Looks like vegetarians still get limited choice at Ocean Restaurant by Cat Cora or at Janice Wong Singapore, while the Mozza Restaurants, Tunglok Heen and Long Chim fare better where variety is concerned.
And then there are the ones not listed above. Jamie’s Italian remains one of our favourite Celebrity Chef Restaurants in Singapore, with its awesome family-friendly factor and (comparatively) wallet-friendly pizzas, pastas and more. They might not offer a separate veg menu but they have a host of vegetarian dishes on their regular menu. You can check out our pick of the Top 8 Vegetarian Dishes at Jamie’s Italian.
Then there is Singapore’s Food Ambassador Violet Oon, with her refreshing Singaporean cuisine, who also offers a handful of vegetarian options in all her restaurants. Also, Resort World Sentosa’s Italian celebrity chef restaurant, Fratelli also offers a selection of a-la-carte vegetarian options on their menus.
With all these choices, if you do decide to go all out and dine in style, you should be covered as far as your vegetarian needs go. Happy Dining!
