SUFOOD Tasting

Last week, Javin and I were invited for a food tasting session at SUFOOD. When we read that SUFOOD is a meat-free dining concept, we were pretty excited because Javin goes meat-free and although I am not vegetarian, meat is pretty much absent from my meals. I would talk about the reasons why I avoid eating meat since it's quite a popular question among friends and people I eat with, but for this post the focus will be on SUFOOD.

The idea of going meat-free is still relatively new in Singapore and Singaporeans are still not that open to this idea, so we were glad that Pu Tien brought in SUFOOD from Taiwan in collaboration with Wowprime (one of Taiwan's biggest restaurant operators). Hopefully it is a sign that people are more willing to go meat-free, for good or occasionally.

We were lucky to have Pu Tien's Brand Manager sit with us at the table because she was very knowledgeable about SUFOOD and explained a lot of things to us. This meat-free dining concept actually came from Taiwan and is apparently very popular there, especially among the ladies and I can understand why. The food served was pretty much what I like in my food - fresh-tasting and clean yet tasty without being overpowering; no artificial flavourings or MSG. Perfect for feasting with much less guilt.

The restaurant serves an 8-course meal at $25++, which is pretty affordable. The meal comprises of a general starter, bread and palate cleanser and you are given a choice for which salad, soup, main, dessert and drink that you want. Javin and I ordered different dishes, so here's what we tried that day:


My favourites were the mushroom salad, conchiglie mushroom bake, osmanthus flower jelly and sesame panna cotta. Even though each course was very light, I actually started to feel really full towards the end but it was an enjoyable experience. For those who do not want an 8-course meal, you can order ala-carte.

Here's the menu for those who are interested:
