Clean, Green, and Irresistible: Sustainable Restaurants for the Ethical Diner

written by Emerline Su April 17, 2018July 5, 2018

As we become more aware of the ethical issues surrounding unsustainable food sources, even the simple joy of eating becomes fraught with worry. Thankfully, it’s not just diners that want to save the Earth – restaurants do, too!

Ease your conscience and feast in peace at these restaurants using sustainable foods and local produce that’s farm-fresh, delicious, and eco-friendly.

Rumah Rasa

Indonesian food has always been a favourite among Singaporeans. Filled with fragrant herbs, piquant spices, rich coconut milk, and decadent gula melaka, it’s an immensely satisfying meal. Rumah Rasa takes all that goodness and brings it a step higher with their focus on sustainable dining and bringing fresh, delicious ingredients to your plate. Many of the herbs and spices used in their homestyle dishes, like kaffir lime, pandan leaves, galangal, and chillies, can be found in their rooftop garden so you can be sure you’re only getting authentic, traditional flavours that all Indonesians know and love.

You’ll be in for a unique dining experience as well, with rows of herbs and veggies lining every vertical surface available in their bistro. With food that’s yummy, healthy, and eco-friendly all at once, there’s no reason for you not to drop by.

How do you like your veggies: stir-fried, baked, or raw? Afterglow brings eating and dining back to its roots, with a vegan menu that’s filled mostly with raw foods. Livestock deals the most damage to the environment, so by cutting meat from their menu and preparing plant-based meals that are vibrant and full of flavour, they’re making a huge impact on the environment. The Deconstructed Sushi Bowl is a healthy and wholesome favourite, while Raw Salted Caramel Fudge is rich and decadent despite containing no dairy. It’s surprising how satisfying vegan food can be!

It’s not every day we get to see what Singapore was like in its kampong era, so a visit to the farm-to-table Poison Ivy Bistro is nothing less than a nostalgic journey back to simpler times. Seated in a rustic, old-school building nestled in a 10-acre farm, you’ll be served comforting local foods like nasi lemak and laksa. Most of their vegetables are organic and straight from the sprawling farm, while the fish is locally farmed. Even the laksa noodles are handmade by the chef, intensifying the heartwarming home-cooked vibes. Take the chance to stroll through the farm, see hundreds of everyday veggies, and breathe in the refreshing farm air.
