GO TO: OFC Social Market #5
If you’re into fresh local and artisanal produce then you should totally check out Open Farm Community Social Market happening this weekend! From homemade smoothie bowls to locally farmed oysters, indulge in these yummy guilt-free goodies and chill to some live music. I’m going to stock up on my Beenut Butters by Second Helpings (I often go for thirds), made with honey and without preservatives. Do bring your best tote bag and also don’t forget your sunscreen, hat and brollies!
Social Market is located at 130E Minden Road, Singapore 248819

EAT: Salted Egg Black Sesame Cake
Gonna get my weekly dessert fix at Dapper Coffee this weekend! They boast an endless parade of experiential cakes like Gula Melaka Walnut Oat, Matcha Raspberry White Chocolate and a low sugar Honey Lemon Crumble Cake. But I’m in for the Salted Egg Sesame Cake and Salted Egg Earl Grey Cake cause the weekend is for indulging.

What’s brewing at the Singapore Coffee Festival? From 9 to 12 June, indulge in a weekend of specialty coffee, coffee appreciation talks, barista workshops and a local kopi showcase while you chill out to live performances from the likes of Charlie Lim, Enec.e, Cashew Chemists, and more. For the caffeine-immune night owls, find a cosy spot, grab a cup of joe, and enjoy a local film or two (881, 7 Letters, Eating Air etc.) under the stars. Ticket sales have already stopped online, but you can still purchase tickets at the door.
Singapore Coffee Festival will be happening from 9 to 12 June at the FT Pit Building. Check out our guide to SCF here.
ATTEND: Gentle Bones Live in Concert
From penning songs in his bedroom to performing in front of sold-out crowds, Gentle Bones (aka Joel Tan) has certainly made his mark as one of the most sought-after artistes in Singapore. And he’s now staging his first ever solo concert on 10 and 11 June at The Esplanade Concert Hall. Look forward to a night of eargasmic tunes from his forthcoming sophomore EP, along with earlier crowd favourites like ‘Until We Die’, ‘Save Me’ and ‘Sixty Five’. In case you need more reasons to get a ticket, give this a read.
Tickets for 11 June are still available on SISTIC! From $35.
DO: Juice Crawl Singapore

Can’t go on pub crawls? Instead of chugging alcohol, you’ll be gulping wholesome cold-pressed juices. Enter Juice Crawl, the first-of-its-kind social gathering where you can sample up to 20 different juices from HIC Juice, Seed & Soil and Juice Junkie, and mingle with other health-conscious individuals. Not just that, there’ll be hatha yoga sessions, exciting games and activities, as well as attractive goodie bags to take home!
Juice Crawl Singapore is happening on 11 June from 1.30pm to 4.30pm at 54 Tras Street, School of Meditation & Yoga #03-01, Singapore 078993. For more info, visit www.juicecrawlsingapore.com
