Plant-based review platform abillion has released its annual list of ’50 Best Vegan Dishes in Singapore’.
abillion is a digital platform and app that features members’ reviews of plant-based food and products. This is the third year that it has released the awards. This year’s 50 best vegan dishes in Singapore is based on more than 18,000 reviews that abillion’s members posted in 2021. More than 10,000 dishes from over 2,500 individual restaurants were evaluated.
Topping the awards for the second year in a row is The Kind Pho, by Vietnamese vegan restaurant The Kind Bowl. Instead of the traditional slices of beef or chicken, the dish is served with shredded marinated seitan and grilled oyster mushrooms with a belly-warming umami soup in place of the bone-based broth. The Kind Bowl has also bagged five other spots on the list, those being other variations of pho and noodle dishes, as well as a banh mi with “no pork” seitan.
The rest of the entrants are a combination of dishes from healthy and plant-based cafes and, notably, ones from mainstream restaurants. New to the list is Israeli restaurant Miznon with three dishes and Violet Oon. Plant-based meats have also proven that they are here to stay, with Tindle ‘chicken’ and omni meats as prominent favourites.
The number of restaurants on the abillion app surged by 5 times between 2017 and 2021, with growth driven both by new restaurants as well as existing restaurants incorporating vegan items…What is very exciting is that fuelling this growth are not just hardcore vegans or vegetarians but an exponentially growing number of flexitarians who are looking to eat more healthily and ethically. On our own platform, flexitarians are the fastest growing community of members, both in Singapore and around the world.”
Vikas Garg, CEO & founder of abillion.
