Michelin-Starred Guest Chef- Jarad Gallagher At The Cliff (4 – 8 June 2014 )

The Singapore Resort and Spa Sentosa (managed by Accor) is a stylish, tranquil 5-star hotel set atop a cliff in 27 acres of lush tropical woodlands and landscaped water gardens.  The resort boasts glorious views of the South China Sea. From the elegant Luxury Rooms to the sprawling garden villas with private lap pool, the resort in Sentosa offers superb accommodation rivalled by none in Singapore as well as complimentary wireless internet access all around the property. 

Beside the 18-hole championship golf course, the various attractions on Sentosa Island, you will never forget the tantalising gastronomy at one of Singapore’s best restaurants - The Cliff.

I'm thankful and honor to be invited for a media tasting with our Michellin Star Chef Jarad Gallagher at The Cliff.

Michelin-Starred Guest Chef- Jarad Gallagher
At The Cliff (4 – 8 June 2014 )

Chef Jarad Gallagher, a Seattle native and second-generation chef, began cooking at the age of five alongside his father. As a Sous Chef at nineteen and Executive Chef at twenty-one, Chef Gallagher refined his natural skills at cooking and developed business savvy.

Having a strong passion for French cooking, he took intensive training classes at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris and London. This led to obtaining a stage at the acclaimed Bras restaurant in Laguiole, France. Working at Michelin starred restaurants including Michael Mina, One Market and Plumed Horse, Jarad obtained the skills and knowledge to drive the stoves at Chez TJ.


Chez TJ will turn 30 years old this year. Three decades is a long run for any restaurant, but what's more remarkable is that Chez TJ continues to be a culinary hit maker. The restaurant has become an unlikely training ground for some of the Bay Area's top chefs.

Chez TJ is proud to have been Michelin Star-rated for the past consecutive eight years. Recently Chez TJ received the Best Service award by the Palo Alto Daily News.

Personally, as the grand final day drew nearer, and diet and water had to be stricter, it was hard trying to keep up with the nutrition portion as well as the rest and recovery portion.

1) During your entire time of Mr World Singapore 2022 from the time you auditioned till you won the title, tell us - what was the most overwhelming moment for you? To be honest, it was when i saw my friend Stanley give the most touching proposal on coronation night. It really made me tear up seeing how emotional he got while on his knee 2) What was the prep process like? The prep process was pretty vigorous nearing towards the end, as there were many events to go for and practices to attend.

I guess how I dealt with it was to just let down my shoulders and enjoy the moment. Being relaxed and just being myself because that’s what people want to see! 4...
