Throughout the month of March, 2018, Sigi's Bar & Grill at Golden Sands Resort Penang presents the Culinary Creations of Chef Fabio. This is a showcase of the culinary creativity of award-winning Chef Fabio Polidori, the executive chef at Shangri-La Hotel Qingdao. Chef Fabio was on a visit to Golden Sands Resort from 26-28 February. During his brief visit, he imparted a wide range of à la carte selections, including his specialty pizza and tajine creations, which local diners will get to experience throughout the month of March.
Born in a small town in Italy, Chef Fabio has risen to be one of the sought-after chefs in the hospitality industry, having established a distinguished career in a number of five-star luxury properties in Europe, the Middle East and Asia Pacific. His accolades included "Chef of the Year Award 2015" from the Grand Hotel Media Magazine, and also winner in the cooking competition on the TV programme, You are the Chef.
My wife and I were privileged to meet Chef Fabio and to enjoy his various culinary selections when he was in Penang. The affable chef has generously made available to Sigi's Bar & Grill a selection of signature dishes which showcases his culinary repertoire. Diners may order à la carte from Chef Polidori's Menu.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
