Folks Collective - The Grand Brasserie, Asia Square

ABBEY: After a hard day’s work we treated ourselves with a very late lunch at Folks Collective (The Grand Brassiere). It is a Thai-Western fusion type restaurant. 

I ordered Phad Thai. The noodles were firm, flavorful and zesty. The pork was tender and the meal really filled me up. 

It was cozy inside the restaurant and they have antique-like ambiance. Did I mention they also have a bar?

WILL: We split the team to attend separate meetings and all of us met at Folks Collective which is located at Asia Square. Three blocks away from 80RR Fintech Hub. 

Abbey ordered Pork Green Curry and white rice for me. The presentation is indeed on the next level. The taste? Green curry is quite watery but the taste was not affected by the soup texture. It satisfied and fulfilled my very late lunch (430pm). 

The ambiance of the restaurant is indeed GRAND! The beautiful chandelier hanging, the lighting, the table designs, the flowers! Splendid!

Don’t go anywhere at CBD! Go directly here at Folks Collective and book a lunch date.

PS.Cafe at Harding Road

ABBEY: After making more than 18 thousand steps roaming in Singapore Botanic Gardens, we decided to treat ourselves at PS.Cafe Harding Road. And yes we continued our walk there. 

The ambiance was cozy and we were greeted by cakes on their glorious pedestals. We shared a serving of roasted chicken. It was juicy and the sauce was very creamy. But that is not the star of the meal. Remember the cakes at the entrance of the restaurant? We got two of them. A slice of Ultimate Fudge Brownie and Double Chocolate Blackout Cake. 

All I can say is that they are loaded with creamy, smooth chocolate. I think whatever calories we burned on our walk were instantly replenished with those chocolate indulgence. Recommended for dinner dates. We’ll a make visit at their One Fullerton branch.

WILL: After a serious but fun walk at Singapore Botanic Gardens, we rewarded ourselves with a sweet treat at PS.Cafe Dempsey Hill Branch. We accumulated 18k+ steps for that activity. Thanks Chat and Shane for joining us. 

So, what’s with PS.Cafe? Cake, a humongous slice which was poured an additional choco syrup on top. After an exercise we cheated with sugar rush. Haha. Ultimate Fudge Brownie and Double Chocolate Blackout Cake is absolutely a hit. Perfect partner for my tea. 

The ambiance... the lighting gives an extra plus for a romantic date night. The staffs are cheerful and knowledgeable about the menu, they gave a good recommendations. 

PS: Please visit one of their branches 🤗

Hans im Glück | German Burger Bar Singapore

ABBEY: We dined at Hans Im Glück (Raffles Place) with fellow blockchain enthusiasts to continue with our stories. I had the Klassik burger. It was dubbed as mother of all burgers so I wanted to try it. 

The burger patty is big and packed as if it was pressed very tightly. But it is still juicy and moist. I added ketchup and mustard which brought more flavor to it. It also came with fries. 

The forest-like ambiance (birch tree everywhere) gives a relaxing feel as you enjoy your burger.

WILL: After the third and last NEM Talk of 2018. We had happy dinner with Ms Poesy (http://poesyliang.com/), Brain (nemash.io) and Valerie (Instagram: @gourmetartistry). Abbey and I was starstrucked of this big and famous people. Omg! 


It is pretty late and we are not in the mood to walk around and on that we settled aHans im Glück. They are offering western food but with a good vegetarian selection. I went for Kasebor- I am happy that the cheesy patty is not dry, fresh vegetables gives the good crunch on it and the sauce is complementing it all.

A good place to have a break and catch-up with your friends after work. Totally recommend their vegetarian burgers.
