Food is life, and then some. With that said, paying for a meal of quality is an occasional necessity. Even the most avid discount hunters amongst us can’t always score a meal on the cheap. 

Thankfully, from 1 July to 30 September 2018, Singapore Restaurant Festival is giving all ardent foodies a chance to dine and win a slew of prizes and dining vouchers. The premise is simple: The more you dine at any of the participating restaurants, the higher your chances of winning. 

Every dining experience automatically earns you 1 stamp. You’re then given the opportunity to earn additional stamps through simple tasks such as settling the bill with your DBS/POSB Card or ordering a salted egg yolk dish.

Here are some of the participating restaurants that will up your chances of winning and make you feel less guilty about all that feasting:

 

1. Dean & Deluca

Add on an order of their Army Stew and some makgeolli (Korean rice wine) for ultimate enjoyment.
