You might think there is a stopwatch somewhere: from pressing the service button in the new Singapore Airlines Business Class it takes just 15 seconds for the on-board staff to fulfill every feasible wish. It’s just one of the many examples that makes the airline one of the world’s leading airlines, but now more…
Above The Clouds – The New Singapore Airlines Business Class
Flying can be quite exhausting, but here it becomes a pure pleasure – a non-stop flight from Zurich to Singapore takes approximately 12 hours 15 minutes – once arrived, one somehow does not want to get off again.
Large space available
The new Singapore Airlines A380 has 471 seats and offers passengers in all classes more space and privacy. The bed in the new Business Class is 63.5 cm wide 198 cm long, which is particularly suitable for taller passengers, is very comfortable and offers a great deal of reclining comfort. The back shell of the seat completely surrounds the cabin for more privacy.
A new feature for couples
We particularly like it and it is suitable for couples or families: the two centre seats can be joined together to form a double bed because the centre backrest can be completely lowered.
Various amenities
The new Singapore Airlines Business Class offers so much: The seats are made of carbon fiber, each cabin includes an 18-inch HD touch screen, USB ports, power connection, reading lamps, fold-out dining table and plenty of compartments and storage space for luggage or shoes. While sleeping is somewhat difficult in the economy, we slept a good 7-8 hours here. The rest of the time is taken care of: the entertainment offers various Hollywood blockbusters, music, games or TV series.
Golf bag and special luggage included
The golf courses on Sentosa Island are astonishing, so why not pack your golf clubs? The Singapore Airlines Business Class offers a combination of 40 kg, so a large suitcase & golf bag can be transported easily and free of charge.
Additional Services
Excellent service
As on the last flight, the food was very yummy, and we were treated friendly and courteous by the crew. We are thrilled by the tested the 15 seconds service time mentioned in the beginning – can’t wait for the next flight!
Prices: Zurich to Singapore in Business Class from approx. 3’919 CHF round trip
The History Of The Guide Michelin
The Guide Michelin is today the holy grail, scale and something like a Bible of all chefs and gourmets around the globe. So it’s not surprising that the chefs are sitting nervously on their chairs when awarding the Michelin stars, so the joy is all the greater when one or the other Michelin star is added. But how did this happen and what does history have to do with the tyre manufacturer Michelin?
We’re eating at every opportunity
How about a lunch for the next business meeting or a Sushi with friends in the city in the evening? When going out or meeting business people these days, it’s all about eating.
The importance of a tasty meal is constantly growing in our society and a self-confessed gourmet also likes to take a trip to Tuscany to visit his favourite Michelin restaurant. Almost without exception, we also plan our trips with a focus on beautiful good food and picturesque wine regions.
Culinary delights are a trend
The average Swiss household spends around 12% of its gross income on food, restaurants and hotels* – which is about as much as on taxes. Not surprising, since the subject of culinary delights and the art of cooking has been on a trend for years. Today, people order burgers with wholemeal bread or avocado and practice cooking Indian food at home in the evenings.
What to find in the Michelin Guide
The annual edition of the Guide Michelin is a guide to the best restaurants in the world. The guide is easily recognisable by the red book cover, which has become the typical hallmark of the guide. Between 1 and 3 stars are awarded, whereby the 3 stars represent the maxim of gourmet cuisine and are therefore not commonplace. It is described in the Michelin Guide as follows:
✭✩✩- “A kitchen full of finesse – worth a stop”.
✭✭✩ – “A top kitchen – worth a detour!”
✭✭✭ – “A unique cuisine – worth a trip!”
The history of the Guide Michelin – It all began in France
It is the year 1900 in France – well, where else! France is the land of culinary delights, gourmets and pioneers. The concept was developed by the tyre manufacturer Michelin to offer the 3000 drivers of the time a workshop guide with tips on how to use the car. With a circulation of 35,000 copies, it was then limited to France and was later offered in Belgium, Germany and Switzerland.
20s – The importance grows
Already in the 20’s hotel and restaurant recommendations with star ratings appeared in the Guide Michelin for the first time, which helped the famous booklet to more popularity.
The Michelin Guide is still number 1 today
Today, the guide is considered an international reference and covers 30 countries in Europe, Asia and North and South America. In the era of TripAdvisor and other evaluation tools, it is anything but self-evident that the Guide Michelin is the undisputed number 1 in the gourmet scene. The fact that films such as ‘Burnt’ or ‘The Hundred-Foot Journey’ are now celebrating their greatest popularity underlines it the more.
Anonymous inspectors
The inspectors always act as normal customers: Reservation, order, accommodation and payment are the same as for all other guests. The award of a Michelin star for a street snack in Bangkok proves that diversity also plays a role. Which house picks up the coveted stars remains a well-kept secret until the stars are awarded.
Why tyres & fine dining fit so well
Mobility means more than just driving from A to B. Mobility is also a pleasure, the opportunity to drive out into the world and discover the most beautiful places. The Guide Michelin offers a great platform offering all sorts of destinations for detours, road trips and trips of all kinds. It is therefore a perfect travel essential for everyone who enjoys traveling and the beautiful things in life.
2019 – The role of the Guide Michelin today
Today, the Guide Michelin is without question the most highly regarded and rated gastronomic and hotel guide. In Switzerland, we are celebrating a new record: a total of 128 establishments have at least one star, whereby it is no longer just the famous ‘haute-cuisine’ that is supposed to be, it can also be casual. On 15 February 2019, the Michelin stars were awarded at the KKL Lucerne, the entire industry sat patiently on its chairs until the biggest and probably most emotional surprise followed: the chef Patrick Mahler, who picked up 2 stars after his first year in office at the Parkhotel Vitznau.
