Carlo Cracco Joins Singapore Airlines International Culinary Panel

Italian star chef, Carlo Cracco, has become the latest member of the Singapore Airlines International Culinary Panel (ICP).

The Chef and Restaurateur of two Michelin-starred Ristorante Cracco in Milan joins a stellar team of eight other international chefs on the highly regarded ICP.

For a start, his dishes will be rolled out to Italian and other selected European routes from January 2013.

“It is a real honour to be selected to join the International Culinary Panel and I am proud to be part of the Singapore Airlines family. Creating menus for an airline will be very different from creating menus for my restaurant, but I look forward to challenging myself. I will strive to express my philosophy, experience, feelings and taste through my recipes and provide customers my cuisine as though they were at my restaurant in Milan,” said Chef Cracco.

A highly regarded culinary figure in the Italian, Western and Continental European dining scenes, Chef Cracco is known as a leader in the new generation of progressive Italian cuisine.

Ristorante Cracco has 2 Michelin stars and is listed among the top restaurants in the world, garnering worldwide attention for its creative takes on Classic Italian food.

A charming media personality who has been featured in countless print publications, Chef Cracco is also a resident judge on one of the most popular television programmes in Italy, MasterChef Italia, and has written two books.

"We are excited to welcome Chef Cracco as the newest member of our International Culinary Panel. His wide range of experience and innovative edge will complement the current panel of star chefs. This also marks another chapter in our commitment to constantly enhancing our inflight food and beverage offerings,” said SIA’s Senior Vice President Product & Services, Mr Tan Pee Teck.
