Fresh vegetables. Yum.

I’m so very into fresh (raw) vegetables and organic food. They just taste better. I did not know that we had organic farms here. If only they weren’t so far away. Kranji from the far east. gosh. =(

The kuehs rocked socks. =D

Bollywood veggies is a great place for the whole family; free-and-easy or go for a guided tour which includes a delicious lunch. There are vegetable plots to explore, a fish pond to fish in and you can buy fresh organically grown vegetables as well as potted herbs. There’s also a lovely bistro (cafe).
Location; 100 New Tiew Road
Opening hours:
Wed-Sun 9am-6pm (farm and bistro) (including public holidays)
Charges: Free entry to the Bistro; $2/entry for the free-and-easy Farm Discovery On Your Own. Free entry for kids below 12 years and elderly above 60 years. For organised groups/bus tours, fee is payable by everyone.

(Note: I felt very cheated by their claims to sell fresh organically grown vegetables – they only had bananas and some random leaves. I had envisioned a farmer’s market stall of sorts. =( For that, Fireflies is a much better option. They had to drag me out from that place. =P)

A very long while ago, I trawled the net for interesting, funky cafes at which I could chill and people-watch for an afternoon. I chanced upon 25 degrees celsius. I was attracted by its concept – a cafe + cookbook shop. Coffee and food books. whee~

The interior design of the place was modern and slick. Being there on a weekday afternoon ensured that there weren’t very much other people save for a couple who looked like they were getting their wedding photos taken. (awesome idea, that) I do hope that they get more business on weekends though, otherwise I don’t see how they’d survive. The tea was decent, as was the cake. Though, it is one of the pricier cafes to chill at.

25 degrees celsius is hidden at a corner of Keong Saik Street off Chinatown.

Baking. The (almost) precise measurement of flour, the whirl of the mixer, the smell of fresh baked goods wafting through the house. A plate, cake and a slice of love.
