The COVID-19 pandemic has put a damper on plenty of things for us Singaporeans, and with the Circuit Breaker in Singapore being extended till 1 June 2020, things haven’t exactly been looking up.

One thing that we truly miss while being stuck at home is being able to dine out and enjoy good food. For us especially, food is a significant part of our lives and is one of the few things that have always managed to perk us up during hard times.

The F&B industry in Singapore, despite being very badly hit by the pandemic, has been fighting to stay afloat during this period. While some of our favourite dining establishments have had to temporarily close their doors till they are given the good-to-go sign by our government, we thankfully do still have quite a number of restaurants that are open for takeaway and islandwide delivery.

Some of these include restaurants under Refinery Concepts, an institution that has over a decade of experience in creating, curating and managing unique F&B concepts in Singapore. Big names include The Marmalade Pantry, Fat Cow and Bedrock, and these restaurants have rolled out specially curated delivery and takeaway menus for this period so you can stay sane and still enjoy your favourite foods without having to take one step out of your door. There are also a number of promotions you can enjoy when you order food from these places, including islandwide delivery, when you spend a certain amount of money using Mastercard.

We hope that despite the trying times, Singaporeans will continue to support our F&B industry and together help to reduce the impact caused by the pandemic. It would be sad for us to come out of this Circuit Breaker just to find out that a bulk of our well-loved eateries did not make it to the end of the crisis.

Stay home and stay safe, everyone.
