(Singapore) – It was a rainy Friday lunch break and one of our colleagues suggested a place for our usual Friday lunch outs 2 blocks away from our office – Food For Thought. The place has a nice, relaxing and comforting atmosphere and for some reasons, it will make you feel light and easy when you enter. Once we got seated, we immediately realized why. Their place mats were printed with the following texts:
2. Feed Good Food
3. Help End Poverty
4. Educate the People
5. Encourage Good Acts
Also found on the wall – a verse from the Bible, Ecclesiastes 3:13
Then we were told that the restaurant was actually meant to invest a minimum of 10% of their profits to support the above! It’s eating for a good cause! No more guilt with eating all those yummy selections of pastas, sandwiches, cakes and other desserts! Their waiters were also very cheerful and nice. They will make you feel like they were just volunteers and are not being paid to work – not sure if it’s really the case though. Anyway, here’s our lunch selection (menu description from foodforthought.com.sg):
