Dining at Open Farm Community has always been a delight. With a menu of farm-to-table options, the double-digit-priced appetisers and mains and perfect as sharing plates when you enjoy a meal with friends or family. The relaxing environment here is what I like whenever I dine here. We were at Open Farm Community earlier this month for a shoot over a meal and got to try a couple of dishes from the appetiser, mains and dessert menu.
We chose to dine outdoors and it wasn’t crowded so we got the privacy to photograph and film while enjoying our meal. It wasn’t too hot given it was noon. But you know how Singapore’s climate can change in a jiffy. But the natural sunlight and slight breeze from the fans outside made it conducive for our mission.
A dish that surprised me was the Fried Cauliflower “Wings” tempura cooked with miso caramel glaze and chilli black sesame seasoning & green onion. If I wasn’t told it was cauliflower, I would have thought it was fried chicken.
I like watermelon. So the Watermelon Wild Honey salad that was prepared with local watermelon, aloe vera, Thai basil and frozen goats milk was another favourite.
Desserts here are also something. If you like bananas, try the Singa’Smore, a tamarind fudge, caramelised banana mousse, five spice biscuit and dark soy marshmallow. Pair that with a cuppa coffee. Or now you have the option to get pastries from TBB Safari which recently opened its doors.
