2025 Flavours of Tomorrow Festival

It is our second time going for Flavours of Tomorrow Festival. Call me bias, but it keeps getting better. I absolutely love this event because it introduces me to alternative options that brings me closer to a sustainable lifestyle. It is one of those events that make you feel more fulfilled and a better version of yourself after attending. Previously, the focus was just on alternative proteins, but I was really glad that they incorporated a lot more booths on other aspects. 

The location this time round was a lot more convenient at the newly built Geneo which was right beside Kent Ridge MRT. Talk about workplace goals, this probably ranks high. Beautiful, futuristic and a great selection of food and amenities. The organisers really did a great job making sure the place was quite children friendly - the bouncy castle was there again. 


On a separate note, there was also commendable effort to engage people for different walk of lives. Through the incorporation, of cooking demonstration, clothes pop-up, Grab-boxes, there was a lot more vibrancy. Personally, I was also pretty pleased to see some of the initiatives which I support there. Some being:
  1. MoNo.sg - For people looking for some bang for their bucks, you can grab a contribution box (range of price varies depending on the size) and it up with goodies. Please note that ost of the food are close to their expiry date. It is one of my favourite place to check out because they hold very interesting snacks and at really affordable price. Plus, tackling food waste is one of my core casuse.
     
  2. Slurpy Bear - We use this as home. The refillable dehumidiser is really effective and quite easy to use. Plus it makes me feel good about myself everytime I opt it instead because it makes me feel like I am contributing to the environment. 

  3. w0w Noodles - My favourite. It taste really good and gives 0 glycemic response, leaving no impact on blood sugar response. Great for people with diabetes or pregnant ladies with gestational diabetes. Made from barley, it is high in protein and dietary fibre. As take-up rate is low, the price is still a little on the high side. But with time and a little public education, I am sure it will soon be econmoical. 

Some great new finds/ things I can't wait to try:
  • Botanict - The nonya food was really good, can't wait to try the whole menu in its restaurant. 
  • Fogo Fungi - Mushroom Grow Kits. Have always wanted one, but yet to get myself one. 
  • Strawberry picking at Blooom - Have long heard about it but just couldn't find an available slot that matches our schedule to go down to. 
Flavours of Tomorrow Festival is from 25 – 27 April 2025, 10AM – 7PM at Geneo at Singapore Science Park. Catch it while it is there, don't miss it.
