Not fully vaccinated yet? You can visit these 9 new Michelin Bib Gourmand hawker stalls for now

Are you that one friend who can't dine out at restaurants yet because you're not fully vaccinated? 

You don't have to feel FOMO (fear of missing out). You can instead take this opportunity to explore some of the hawker stalls that have made it to the Michelin Bib Gourmand 2021 list. 

Not to be confused with the Michelin Star or Michelin Recommendations, the Michelin Bib Gourmand highlights eateries "that offer diners very good value for money, with a complete and high-quality menu priced at a maximum of $45". 

Out of the 69 eateries listed, nine of these establishments are newly featured hawkers that are worth exploring while you wait for your vaccination status to turn green on TraceTogether.

It is popular for its roasted meats that are cooked with charcoal, resulting in a smoky and charred flavour. Do head over early as they are usually sold out early!
