“I always wanted a restaurant and always wanted to call it Story, because I was going to tell everyone what I was all about. My story, my life, everything I’ve worked for: the hours of blood, sweat and tears, it all came down to this,” he relates.
After a successful sell-out residency with Michelin-starred KOKS last month, culinary platform Chef Residence is now turning the spotlight on another rising superstar in the Michelin circle. Chef Tom Sellers from London will be manning the kitchen of Flutes Restaurant at National Museum of Singapore to showcase his unconventional masterful dishes from March 29 – April 29.
One of the youngest Michelin chefs around, Sellers was only 26 when he opened his first flagship restaurant, called Restaurant Story, near London Bridge in 2013. The restaurant was awarded one Michelin star just five months after its opening, and received its second star last year. “It’s hard to say why we were awarded so quickly, but I’d like to think the originality and unique identity of Story played a part,” says Sellers.
