Hyundai Discovery Centre Singapore: Free Tour of EVs, Robot Farming & Smart Factory

ABBEY: When it comes to innovation, the Hyundai Motor Group Innovation Center Singapore (HMGICS) truly lives up to its name. Located on Bulim Avenue, this cutting-edge facility showcases some of the most exciting advancements in technology, sustainability, and manufacturing.

One of the highlights of the tour was their state-of-the-art hydroponics farm. Spanning multiple floors within the building, this smart farm uses advanced robotics to grow kale, lettuce, and mustard greens. We were walked through the entire farming process—from seed germination to harvest—and it was nothing short of fascinating.


The best part? We got to enjoy a tasting session, omakase-style, featuring fresh produce from the farm. The flavors were vibrant, and the freshness was unparalleled. And as a bonus, we even got to take home some of the freshly harvested greens!


HMGICS doesn’t stop at agriculture; their car manufacturing processes are equally impressive. The tour included an immersive experience in their virtual factory, where VR technology transported us into a world of futuristic automation.


We explored the workings of robodogs and intelligent “conveyors,” which seamlessly move materials between stations in the fully automated facility. After the VR tour, the curtains lifted to reveal the actual factory, giving us a real-life view of this technological marvel.


Unfortunately, the weather didn’t cooperate, so we missed the chance to test-drive their electric vehicles on the track. But even without that, the tour was packed with awe-inspiring moments.


This tour is a must for anyone curious about how technology is shaping the future. From sustainable farming to groundbreaking manufacturing, HMGICS offers a firsthand look at how innovation can solve real-world challenges.

WILL: I was looking for a place to learn about hydroponics, but many had closed due to lack of support. Just when I was about to give up, I came across a post about the Hyundai Discovery Centre—a place where robots handle both car manufacturing and hydroponic farming. I booked a free tour right away!


The tour started with a showcase of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6, both assembled in Singapore. These electric cars are so advanced that they’re already being tested as self-driving police cars in the USA. Next, we moved to the fully automated indoor hydroponics section. Here, robots carefully plant mustard seeds one by one—a fascinating process to watch!

On the second floor, we saw a larger hydroponic farm filled with leafy greens, ready for harvest. We even got to taste the fresh produce and compare the flavors There’s also a farm-to-table restaurant inside the building—an exciting way to enjoy food grown with high-tech farming methods.

We entered a VR room that showed how Hyundai’s machines assemble cars step by step. Then, the projection screen lifted, revealing the real factory behind it! It was spotless, unlike the greasy factories I had imagined.


This 2-hour tour is perfect if you:

- Love tech and robotics

- Want to see automated hydroponics in action

- Are curious about electric cars

And the best part? It’s FREE!

🚀 Slots fill up fast, so book ASAP!

🇨🇭Läderach, Lindt or Cailler? Which is the Best Chocolate Museum in Switzerland?

ABBEY: I am a BIG fan of chocolate. And there’s no way we’ll be missing the chocolate factories when we go to Switzerland. Upon landing in Zurich, we dropped our luggages at the hotel and off we go to our first order of “business”: go to House of Läderach at Bilten. The train staff even told us that it’s far and we should go to Lindt instead. Little did he know that we will go there as well. House of Läderach is not that much crowdy and we liked it. We explore the museum how the chocolate was made. We had a sensory experience where we got a chance to taste their chocolate while watching a video that explains how to spot fresh chocolates. Upon seeing their molds, process, and their story we were led to four fountains. Yes, they are all chocolate; milk, dark, white, and blonde. We also experienced to be a chocolatier even for a while. I made my own bar with pistachios and pine nuts and completed it with a ribbon. And while in queue at the cashier we were given samples of liqueur chocola...

Duo Deluxe Golden Village - Paya Lebar Laser-projected Movie Hall

ABBEY: Golden Village Paya Lebar boasts its laser projection system and its spacious twin leather seats. So we went ahead and watch Justice League on a weekend.  Only the food and drinks bought in the cinema will be allowed.  I thought the seats are able to recline but its not. The space between the other twins are not that apart. I can still feel the feet or maybe the knee of the person behind me.  When it comes to the projection I don’t find any difference with other cinema. Maybe I’m not just keen into that technology. Duo Deluxe Golden Village - SEAT  Duo Deluxe Golden Village - TICKET PRICE Duo Deluxe Golden Village -  WILL:  We are not that bored to the old seat or lazy boys kind of cinemas, we just want to explore new things to serve our readers. So here, we went to the first laser cinema of Golden Village at Singapore Post (Paya Lebar).  This Duo Deluxe is one of the latest offering of GV! It has leather seat...

Shaw Theatres premiere Review: Is This Premium Cinema Worth It?

ABBEY:  Recently, we finally got to experience the newly renovated Shaw Theatres Lido along Orchard Road just in time for The Devil Wears Prada 2 hitting the silver screen. From the moment we stepped in, it was clear that Shaw has elevated the cinema experience into something far more premium and comfortable for moviegoers in Singapore. One of the first things you will notice is the impressive selection of food and beverage options available. Guests are spoiled for choice with concepts like Centro, Espresso and Matcha Bar , and even a Cocktail Bar, making it feel more like an upscale lounge than a traditional cinema. If you are planning a date night or weekend movie experience, the value is surprisingly decent too. A SGD90 package already includes a pair of Lido Premiere tickets along with two SGD15 F&B credits. The service also stood out during our visit. An usher personally welcomed us and guided us to our leather recliner seats while explaining how the in-seat servi...
