Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) held its first ever RWS Street Eats Showdown today at Malaysian Food Street featuring two accomplished RWS chefs against authentic Thai & Vietnamese chefs. Are you excited? We sure are! 

Our Parenting World (OPW) team is one of the judges for this inaugural showdown event and as foodies, we are looking forward to try out the street food and support the chefs. Who will win?

The event is hosted by Pornsak Sukhumvit aka Chua En Lai who spiced up the showdown with his humour. The 1st round is between Chef Lorenz Hoja from RWS’s L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon (Two Michelin Stars) and Thai Chef Aom Pongmorn from Bangkok’s revered ‘King of Phad Thai’ restaurant Baan Phadtha in cooking the best Phad Thai.

The 2 chefs have 10 minutes to whip up the dishes. 

This dish on the left is from Chef Lorenz Hoja and the right is prepared by Thai Chef Aom Pongmorn.

The winner is Chef Lorenz Hoja!

The 2nd round which is the final round is between Chef Benjamin Halat from CURATE and Chef Steven Long of Hanoi’s Sen Tay Ho on coming up with the best Vietnamese Grilled Pork with Rice Noodles.

This delightful and unique version is prepared by Chef Benjamin Halat.

This dish is beautifully presented in a boat prepared by Chef Steven Long. Both dishes are visually appealing and delicious, it is so hard to decide, who will win?

The winner is Chef Steven Long!
