Farm-To-Table

Really loved their healthy and delicious vegan food with fresh produce from Fireflies Health Farm... Unfortunately the farm has been shut down to reprupose the land for military use, and the eateries have closed down too. The food court stall has been taken over by Lotus Vegetarian Kitchen which serves allium-free and vegan food, including their own leicha.

Delicious kolomee

Had a big feast here. The leicha kolomee was my favourite because the sesame oil sauce was SO fragrant! Side dishes were delicious: Hakka yong tau foo, braised radish, stewed bittergourd, yam cake and tempeh in ginger/pineapple sauce. So sad it’s closing down tomorrow 😭

Organic, fresh

I ordered the lei cha kolomee, probably would recommend to stick to the original and get it with rice! I loved all the toppings, a good mix of crunchy and fresh, they would have mixed better with rice. Good flavor, nice, healthy meal. I also tried the taro cake, wasn't my favorite I've had but still alright!

Award winning Thunder Tea Kolo Mee

Their Thunder Tea Kolo Mee won several awards as shown in pictures, the kolo mee is really good, full of sesame oil fragrance, the sweet potato leaves and other ingredients are well cooked too, but their Tea tastes normal only, for the Tea (the soul of Thunder Tea), imho Living Wholesome serves the best Tea. Tried one each of their side dishes too, all are good especially the Hakka and bitter gourd Yong Tau Foo, like the herbal broth and Yong Tau Foo paste very much, their chilli is spicy enough and shiok, do come and enjoy before 30-6-2022 (their last day of operation)

Has jain option too

They have 1 item for strict jain ppl like me. Other options are 100% vegan - vegetarian.

Food was tasty & fresh.

Just a request to keep carrots separate & not mix them with veggies or tofu.

Note: Strict Jain means apart from no egg - meat - fish - etc, We also avoid all root vegetables & aubergine & brocoli / cauliflower & brinjal. We are okay with groundnut.

Pros: 100% vegan - also has a jain dish, Very busy - quick turnaround - always fresh , Lady at counter very helpful

Cons: In food court, sitting difficult to find

Best Thunder Tea Rice (same as PPC Thunder Tree ;)

Came here at 2:30pm for lunch and it was so nice and empty in the canteen, hardly anyone there! Perfect time to eat!! The canteen is very clean and nice, more upmarket than the one at People's Park Centre (PPC). The food, however, is just as good as it's sister location in PPC. The best Thunder Tea Rice EVER. Seriously, if I could afford it, I would want to eat here everyday. So healthy, you can really taste the difference of how fresh the ingredients are.

We also tried the auspicious yam cake today, and we're feeling pretty auspicious now!😉It was delicious. All in all, one of my favourite places in Singapore.

Pros: Fresh, organic produce, Best Thunder Tea Rice, Clean environment

Healthy + Delicious!

despite only having a few main options, the food is delicious! the portions are pretty big to me, but it’s very healthy and filling! the people are really nice and friendly too☺️ the only thing is that it is a little pricey. however, i think it is very worth it as everything they serve is very nutritious and the portion is good!👍🏻 definitely recommend to try it out when you’re in the area(even though it’s situated in a hospital)! you can access through the glass door beside Dimbulah Coffee and head down to Basement 1.

Affordable dishes, uses mainly organic ingredients

Went on a weekday evening and there wasn't a crowd. Staff were very friendly and told me about their menu specials which are only available on the 1st and 15th days of the lunar month.

Kolo mee was nicely cooked and not too salty. The fried wantons added a nice crunch to the overall taste. It came with a soup (corn, I think!) which was great for cleansing the palate.

Wide variety and healthy greens

Conveniently located near Bugis MRT, at Raffles Specialist Centre. Offers Lei Cha, a variety of kolomee and snacks. Comes with greens to make a healthy meal.

Just the right taste. Not too salty, not too bland.
