It’s been a celebratory June Awards Season for Marguerite. On 28 June, the restaurant proudly clinched the coveted Singapore Tourism Awards 2024 Outstanding Dining Experience accolade. This is just days after it was the recipient of One Michelin star in 2024, an achievement it has celebrated 3 years running. Since receiving its first Michelin star in 2022, a mere 8 months after Marguerite’s opening, the restaurant under the helm of Australian Chef-Patron Michael Wilson remains committed to a relentless pursuit of culinary excellence.
“It’s moments of recognition such as this that uplift us as a collective and give us an impetus to keep pushing to develop, innovate and elevate. We’re always looking to enhance our culinary offering at Marguerite and create a dining experience that excites the travelling and local gourmand.” Says Chef-Patron Michael Wilson.
The Singapore Tourism Awards 2024- Outstanding Dining Experience
The Singapore Tourism Board celebrates 60 years of shaping Singapore into a vibrant destination that drives innovation in the tourism sector. As an extension of this, the Singapore Tourism Awards celebrates individuals and organisations in the tourism industry for delivering outstanding and enterprise excellence.
Marguerite clinched the Outstanding Dining Experience award with its offering of a Michelin star dining experience set within the breathtaking Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay (ranked the 8th best attraction in the world on Tripadvisor’s Traveler’s Choice Awards Best Of The Best 2024). Creating a unique garden dining experience indoors, the restaurant was also praised for its personalised service and adaptive approach to the economic climate, providing exceptional value while maintaining Michelin star quality.
Guests arrive at Gardens by the Bay and are whisked away via a complimentary limousine buggy service that offers stunning sights of the gardens and Marina Bay Reservoir. They enter the Flower Dome through a secret back entrance, embarking on a culinary journey that blends creativity with tradition and seasonal inspirations. Multi-course tasting menus reflect the team’s travels and experiences, showcasing a culinary expression that celebrates nature, innovation, craftsmanship, and the joy of exploration through food. To complement, Marguerite offers a curated selection of fine wines and a house-made non-alcoholic temperance beverage program featuring clarified juices and fermented jun teas. Free Flower Dome access allows guests to enjoy the floral expanse of the Dome in all its glory, pre or post meal.
A 7 Course Tasting Menu is available for both lunch and dinner at $288++ per person. The restaurant also recently launched a brand new 4 course lunch experience at $128++ per person. 4 courses are accompanied by all the fine flourishes of a Michelin star worthy meal. A welcome snack, spelt sourdough, still and sparkling water, a selection of mignardises and coffee and tea make for a comprehensive experience.
A Michelin Star in 2024
