The First Day We Got Our Stars: Sun Kim
"The South Korean chef shares what it was like the day his restaurant Meta in Singapore got one Michelin star. Regulars who dine along the trendy Keong Saik Road will be familiar with the understated yet elegant Meta, and its chef-owner Sun Kim. The South Korean native is soft-spoken by nature, but the open-concept kitchen over at one-Michelin-starred Meta might be enough for one to nudge him into speaking up that bit more. Don't walk into Meta expecting a bibimbap though. The food here is contemporary Asian, a fusion of French and Asian flavours thanks to Kim's training in Seoul, and subsequently at Tetsuya's in Sydney and two-Michelin-starred Waku Ghin by chef Tetsuya Wakuda." - Meryl Koh
