Food for every palate

The food festival is said to have something for every palate, with a total of 13 F&B vendors onsite.

If you’ve not tried the Impossible meat patty, here’s your chance to try Three Bun’s Impossible Inferno Slider (S$15), which has the vegan Impossible meat patty, some spicy roasted scotch bonnet salsa verde, a slice of cheese, some pickles and ketchup.
