With new openings and brands to check out at Tampines 1, you’re going to want to make a trip there asap – whether you live in the east or not!
There are plenty of shopping malls in Singapore that are worth spending hours exploring, but if you happen to live in the east and feel like hanging out in the neighbourhood, we say head to Tampines 1 for their new outlets and some old favourites.
New bites
Pop by the travel-themed HyfeCafé, which serves fusion fare with Asian influences. Think teriyaki salmon udon, salted egg fish and chips, and golden waffles – while digging in, you can use the tablet device at your table and the interactive trip-planning tool on it to lock down your next vacay.
Crazy for ice cream and coffee? Making its debut in Singapore is Tru Birch (pictured top), a soft-serve and coffee specialist that offers fresh (and organic!) takeaway pick-me-ups such as cold brew coffee topped with its signature Nordic Soft Serve. They’re also selling their cold treats by the tub, which come in flavours such as white chocolate and rose, and ‘Singapore Sling’ for that local touch.
Familiar names
Tampines 1 is also home to brands like Gain City; the electronic specialist’s store here is massive – the largest one in the east, in fact. And here’s an interesting twist from a household name: the mall’s UOB outlet has dining spot Sugarhaus – makers of Instagram-worthy “galaxy cakes” and homemade ice cream – attached to it, so you can run bank errands while enjoying that sweet treat.
Other hot spots
Food, drinks, and things you need for that #adultlife aside, another place worth visiting is Cosmo Cleanse. The wellness spa targets your needs and wants in the health and beauty department with the help of natural solutions, state-of-the-art technology, and basics like detox juices.
Oh, by the way, if you’re a member of AMperkz, AsiaMalls’ loyalty programme, you can snap up weekday food coupons* worth over $40 from 22 March to 31 May 2018. To redeem them, all you have to do is spend a minimum of $100 at any F&B outlet (or $150 at other retail stores in Tampines 1).
