SINGAPORE: Few would dispute that Singapore has some of the best street food in the region.

But now, according to the inaugural Miele Guide, published by German home appliance maker Miele, Singapore also has Asia's best fine dining restaurant in the form of Iggy's.

However, choosing the best was not easy.

It took 84 of the most respected food critics, votes from over 15,000 diners across 40 countries, and a special jury of 1500 journalists and foodies, to come up with the final list.

Eight Hong Kong restaurants and four in Singapore made it to the list of Asia's Top 20 Restaurants. The ones from Singapore include Les Amis, Gunther’s and Garibaldi, which are placed at the third, fourth and seventh spot respectively.

To come up with the guide that lists 200 of the best, restaurants in 16 countries were evaluated.

Managing director of Miele South East Asia, Mario Miranda, said: “There was actually no serious credible guide in Asia - such a rich and diverse region, such great dining experiences."

The full list of the Top 20 restaurants is available at this website.
