Ding Dong Across Asia – An Asian Gastronomic Tour

Widely recognised as a melting pot of Asian cuisine, Singapore is a gateway to the eclectic culinary flavours of Asia.

Enter Ding Dong, one of Singapore’s foremost restaurants to join in the Mod-Asian epicurean movement since opening its doors in 2013; the restaurant prides itself in continuously putting forth innovative dishes that meld familiar and traditional flavours of Asian cuisine with innovative plating, and modern, progressive culinary techniques.

Introducing 18 new exciting dishes to its ala carte menu, diners can expect a creative reimagination of Asia’s quintessential flavours through modern and progressive execution by newly appointed Head Chef, Miller Mai, as well as an equally inventive cocktail programme – Not So Lonely Planet, conceptualised and created by Group Bar Manager, Joe Schofield.
