So, after years of industry murmuring, it's official: the Michelin Guide is finally coming to Singapore.

The arbiter and kingmaker of good restaurants around the world – it's affiliated with French tyre company, Michelin – says its cabal of international inspectors have begun combing the city's many restaurants ahead of the red book's launch in the 'second half of 2016', according to The Straits Times. Hawker fare is also said to be getting its due in the guide, probably as Bib Gourmand (it refers to great food at affordable prices) recommendations.

Singapore will join other food capitals in Asia like Tokyo, Hong Kong and Macau to have its own guide. Which means boasting that our locally based chefs are 'Michelin-starred' will finally have real value and meaning.

What do you think about the vaunted guide coming to Singapore? And which restaurants do you hope to see get their stars?
