Spain's Michelin-starred chef Santi Santamaria died Wednesday while on a visit to Singapore, one of his restaurants : Santi @MBS Hotel.
Taken from News:
One of the world's top chefs Santi Santamaria died after collapsing at a marathon food tasting event at Marina Bay Sands for the international media tonight.
The three-star Michelin chef from Barcelona was hosting journalists at his restaurant at the casino resort when he fainted at around 7.30pm.
Staff from the restaurant gave assistance while Marina Bay Sands staff alerted the ambulance service. He was then taken by an ambulance to the Singapore General Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.

Facts when I'm there:
The chef actually had already passed away @the restaurant not long after he fainted.
As my event girls and I were there as well, it was kinda sad though..
We were hired for this event assignment which is to ursher the international media journalist friends @Mbs with the 6 celebrity chefs on the day itself.
Had food tasting in 6 Celebrity Chefs' restaurants- Guy Savoy; Waku ghin; Santi; Pizzeria Mozza; Cut and DB Bistro Moderne @Mbs.
&Also the signatures of some of the celebrity chefs lol
I still remembered we even had a picture with him before he collasped.
I think the picture is with the media.
And what's depressed was, he fainted right infront of Yanyan and passed away not long ago after he dropped on the floor. And I'm just at the next restaurant with the Thai media friends.

Sigh.
