English Version | 中文版本 Yeo’s has expanded its Café Series with the launch of Pandan Chiffon Soy Milk , a dessert-inspired soy drink that reinterprets the familiar pandan chiffon cake flavour into a ready-to-drink format. The product leans toward a soft, fragrant, café-style profile, positioning soy milk as an occasional indulgence rather than a daily staple. The launch reflects a broader move within the soy beverage category toward flavour-led, dessert-adjacent offerings, designed to appeal to consumers looking for variety beyond traditional original or reduced-sugar options. Pandan, a flavour closely associated with Southeast Asian desserts, is used here as a recognisable but approachable reference point rather than a novelty ingredient. Pandan Chiffon Soy Milk is currently available at selected supermarkets in Singapore. For additional background on how Yeo’s first introduced the Café Series concept, refer to the earlier post here » English Version  |  中文版本

English Version | 中文版本 Feeding children at scale is not about cooking once. It is about making sure food shows up every school day. Singapore’s move toward a central kitchen model for selected school canteens is not a culinary decision. It is a care strategy. Faced with vendor shortages and rising costs, responsibility shifts from individual stallholders to shared infrastructure. Central kitchens prepare meals in advance, then deliver them to schools for reheating and service. The goal is reliability, not creativity. This reduces reliance on on-site labour and ensures lunch does not disappear when operations are under strain. The trade-off is clear. Food built to survive transport and holding will not chase peak freshness. That compromise is intentional. For children, predictability matters. When a society decides that children will be cared for every day, without exception, the system matters. Sometimes food matters not because it is special, but because it puts kids firs...

English Version | 中文版本 Lay’s has introduced a durian-flavoured potato chip, and it is now appearing in Singapore via import sellers , not through an official local retail launch. The product is sourced from Taiwan and is currently available only through online platforms and parallel import listings. Pricing, stock, and packaging vary by seller rather than following standard supermarket distribution. Durian is the core signal. The flavour is built for instant recognition and reaction , driven more by aroma than nuance. There is no visible Singapore-specific campaign or formal rollout tied to the market. This follows a familiar pattern, with many of the stranger snack flavours coming out of Taiwan first . As part of PepsiCo , Lay’s regularly releases regional experimental flavours. In this case, the product functions as an imported novelty item , with its relevance lying in how bold snack flavours surface through platform commerce before any official market adoption. English Versi...

English Version | 中文版本 Lay’s has introduced three limited-edition potato chip flavours in Singapore: Abalone, Bamboo, and Tangerine. The products are currently available at FairPrice , sold in 56g packs and positioned as short-run retail offerings rather than permanent additions. Among the three, Abalone stands out for its premium and festive connotations, commonly associated with Lunar New Year food culture in Singapore. Bamboo and Tangerine lean toward lighter, aromatic flavour profiles , offering contrast to the heavier savoury note of abalone. The chips are primarily surfaced through supermarket listings and in-store promotions , including multi-buy deals. There is no dedicated campaign page or official launch announcement tied specifically to these flavours, suggesting a retail-first rollout focused on shelf visibility and seasonal trial. Lay’s is a global snack brand under PepsiCo . The brand regularly releases region-specific flavours across Asian markets, using locali...

English Version | 中文版本 Din Tai Fung has added a new dessert item to its Singapore menu: Strawberry Mochi Xiao Long Bao . The product reinterprets the classic soup dumpling format as a sweet dish. Instead of a savoury filling, the dumplings contain a strawberry-based filling paired with mochi and white chocolate , wrapped in Din Tai Fung’s familiar thin skin. According to multiple listings and media reports, the Strawberry Mochi Xiao Long Bao will be available islandwide in Singapore from 1 February 2026 . It is sold in set portions, typically six or ten pieces per order . Some sources describe the item as a permanent menu addition , rather than a limited-time release. Dessert-style xiao long bao is not entirely new for Din Tai Fung, which has previously offered chocolate-based versions in other markets . This strawberry mochi variation continues that direction, positioning the dumpling as a sweet option rather than a main dish . The launch has been widely shared across social medi...

English | 中文 This is not a brand announcement or a promotional showcase, but a cultural environment shaped through the senses. At the Asian Civilisations Museum , tea is not positioned as an artifact to be studied or a product to be celebrated. It is treated as something more elemental: a cultural environment shaped by the senses, lived through the body, and understood through time rather than explanation . Garden of Senses / 茶苑梦：A Tea Reverie unfolds as a space to inhabit, not a story to decode. Visitors move through light, sound, texture, and scent, encountering tea as a shared human rhythm rather than a historical subject. There is no fixed route and no prescribed takeaway. Meaning forms gradually, carried by movement, attention, and presence. This curatorial choice reflects a clear cultural intelligence. Tea has always been grounded in calibration-temperature adjusted by hand, time measured by instinct, silence shared without instruction. By building the experience around senso...
