As you’d expect from Open Farm Community’s sister restaurant, Noka is Singapore’s first rooftop urban farm-to-table restaurant. Head chef Seki Takuma from Niigata, Japan, melds Japanese cooking techniques and sustainable produce from the rooftop farm right outside the restaurant. Seasonal mushrooms and vegetables find their way into salads and mains. For that special occasion, indulge in the miso-glazed Black Cod Saikyo-Yaki ($34) or perhaps the Noka Feast for Two ($94), featuring assorted sushi, mains and delicious Japanese beer.

As its name suggests, the subs from Rebel aren’t your usual, run-of-the-mill sandwiches. Most are made using a banh mi-inspired baguette base, but the fillings pull from a range of cuisine. There’s the Asian Po Boy with battered shrimp drizzled with sweet Thai chilli ($9.80), or The Original Rebel ($7.60) stuffed with chicken patties and tangy Asian slaw. But Rebel has a selection of vegetarian options that are just as hearty and delicious. Made using meat-free Quorn products, like the popular Pure ($7.60) with Quorn fillet and tempeh, these meat-free subs not only taste great, but are better for you and the environment too. Look out for Rebel’s Meatless Monday promotion, where its Quorn-stuffed creations go for $1.90 off its original price.
