"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
"Chef Sun Kim cut his teeth under Japanese chef Tetsuya Wakuda at Wakuda's eponymous restaurant in Sydney and at his Singapore outpost Waku Ghin. So it’s not surprising that his style of modern European cooking at Meta is similarly light and elegant, and inflected with pronounced Korean accents. The menu changes, but you'll find dishes like a beef tartare riff on Korean beef bulgogi, a list of pricey wines by the glass, and a service style that's efficient and professional. Make sure to sit at the bar fronting the open kitchen for a chance to chat with the chefs." - Annette Tan
