World renowned Chef-Entrepreneur Joel Robuchon flew into the lion city with the prospects of having his signature restaurants opening their doors by next year at the Resorts World Sentosa.

Both IRs have been courting world class celebrity chefs to be a part of their F&B dinning concepts program and Chef’s Robuchon’s partnership with RWS is certain to add more weight in making Singapore a culinary hotspot in the gastronomic world of fine cuisine.
