With food options and retail stores galore, the new Funan mall is definitely one of Singapore’s hot topics. If you haven’t yet gone down to Funan, you might want to take this chance to drop by for some retail therapy or just a meal with your buddies – no matter what, you’ll be spoilt for choice!

One of Funan’s hidden gems would definitely be Trufflelicious, stowed away on the second floor of the mall in the shape of a food truck. They specialise in all things truffle-related yet keep their prices friendly on your wallets!

First up on the table was the Truffle Sukiyaki Beef Don (S$12). Thin slices of sweet sukiyaki beef and a wobbly onsen egg sits on a bed of rice and is topped off with freshly-grated black truffle!

The beef was super tender and flavourful, having a delicious sweet-and-savoury taste from the sukiyaki sauce. Mix it all in with the egg and truffle shavings to perfume the dish with that strong umami flavour of truffle!

Their Truffle Chicken Don (S$10) definitely did not disappoint as well. Tender chunks of chicken, coated in a savoury glaze, is also topped with an onsen egg and freshly grated truffle. We loved how succulent the chicken was and given the price point, the portions were rather generous as well!

Last but not least, we had a taste of their cold Truffle Mushroom Pasta (S$10). Cold angel hair pasta is tossed in truffle oil and a medley of mushrooms. It is then finished with a generous grating of black truffle.

A mouthful of this pasta will send you to truffle-heaven and back – it packs a strong punch of truffle, both from the truffle oil and the fresh truffle. If you’re a truffle-lover, prepare to come back often for this!

Overall, we felt that Trufflelicious was very affordable given their pretty generous servings. If you’re hungry and happen to crave some good truffle dishes, Trufflelicious just might be the best option for you!

Despite being labelled as an IT-focused mall, the newly-reopened Funan is home to a myriad of new F&B concepts and stores. From bubble tea to protein bowls and ice cream, Funan is quite the budding hot spot in Singapore.

From the same people who brought us Chye Seng Huat Hardware, PPP Coffee (previously known as Papa Palheta) has opened in the revamped Funan. Serving up an extensive range of single-origin filter coffees, pastries and other signature brews, it’s a great place to stop by if you need a quick pick-me-up.

Nestled in the centre of Funan, PPP Coffee is one great place to grab a quick cuppa after a scrumptious lunch at the many new F&B shops at the refurbished mall. Just walking up to the cafe, we were greeted by the strong aroma of freshly brewed espresso.

We ordered a refreshing Iced White (S$7), made with their signature Throwback Blend of coffee beans. It contains beans from India and Columbia, giving it a rich dark chocolate and hazelnut note.

The coffee was very smooth and not acidic at all. The blend would appeal to those who love their coffee heavy bodied and on the bitter side.

We also enjoyed a Lemon Meringue Tart (S$7) and were pleasantly surprised by the tart as the curd was zesty and vibrant despite looking a little pale. The crunchy tart base and the petite meringue topping chased the acidic tang of the lemon curd perfectly.

Other than just western pastries, PPP Coffee serves up some colourful kuehs, honouring its Singaporean roots. Some kuehs you can expect are the ever-popular Ang Ku Kueh (S$2.50) and their signature Coffee-Infused Gula Melaka Ondeh Ondeh (S$1.20).
