F’east: Chill garden cafe located inside new Far East Flora Centre, an 11-storey garden repository
Here’s some exciting news for plant lovers: Clementi now has a giant plant mall by Far East Flora.
A popular saying among the younger generation goes like this: “Pets are the new children and plants are the new pets.”
If you’re an aspiring plant parent, then you’d need to pop by Far East Flora Centre for your shopping.
There’s even a breezy rooftop area, grocer and an in-house cafe, cutely named F’east.
The one-stop location has nine storeys, along with a basement and rooftop, and houses a staggering 1,000 varieties of flowers and more than 500 different types of plants.
While you’re there, you can also take a breather and relax at Far East Flora Centre’s very own plant-filled indoor cafe, F’east.
The menu at F’east is simple, mostly comprising familiar cafe-style items, along with a healthy selection of pastas and protein-based mains.
Available from 8am, the cafe includes a plethora of “all-day breakfast” and “all-day favourite” dishes, as well as an “all-day kids menu” for the tots.
All-day breakfast entails comforting brunch hits such as the ever-popular avocado toast (S$19), saucy shakshuka (S$16) and flaky croissant breakfast sandwich (S$14).
On the other hand, the favourites section comes chock-full of Insta-worthy cafe staples — think ricotta hotcakes (S$17) and F’east croffles (S$16).
In case you find yourself at Far East Flora Centre during lunch, you’re in luck since the mains and pastas start rolling out from 12pm.
To fill up those hungry tummies, all kinds of hearty Western dishes can be found on F’east’s selection of mains. Expect beef burgers (S$19.90), fish & chips (S$17.90), beef sirloin steak (S$32.90), and more.
Pasta lovers will also be able to dive into a creamy carbonara (S$17.90), Japanese-inspired nori pasta (S$15.90) and fragrant bacon shimeji pesto (S$18.90) — a diverse offering to suit different palates.
Or, if you’re just looking to rest your legs after exploring Far East Flora Centre’s various botanical offerings, F’east serves up delightful sweet confectioneries such as ondeh ondeh cake (S$8.90) or burnt cheesecake (S$8) that will serve as the perfect sweet ending to your plant-hunting trip.
