SCCC Winter Solistice SG60 Event 2025

The SCCC Winter Solistice SG60 event took place on 21st December 2025, SCCC and its community partners achieved two new Singapore Book of Records title, marking a festive finale to SCCC’s year long SG60 celebrations.

Close to 200 participants from organisations such as Singapore Federation of Chinese Clan Associations (SFCCA), The Peranakan Association Singapore, Anandha Traditional Arts & Music Ltd (ATAM), Singapore Cancer Society, and Brighton Connections, came together to make 12 different varieties of tangyuan, celebrating cultural unity and shared heritage. 

SCCC Chief Executive Officer, Mr Alvin Tan, said, “During the Winter Solstice, the making and eating of tangyuan signify reunion, and foster a sense of kinship. It is therefore apt that SCCC celebrates the festival with our community partners and friends from different ethnic communities, and together, mark the culmination of our SG60 commemorative events by gifting Singapore with two new records.” 

Understanding and Learning more about Winter Solstice (Beyond just eating)

For many of us, during 冬至 (Winter Solstice), while we know about the traditions and significance of this day, we probably look forward more to eating more tangyuan instead.

There was a great sharing by Kok Leong at the start of this special Winter Solstice event, on “The Art and Science of Winter Solstice – A beautiful blend of astronomy and culture”. The highlight for me from this sharing was the varieties of tangyuan on offer! 

There were 12 varieties of tangyuan, namely plain with no filling, black sesame paste, white sesame paste filling, red bean paste filling, peanut filling, lotus seed paste filling, green tea paste, fried tangyuan, chocolate filling, sweet potato filling, Hakka (Vegetarian) and Peranakan. 

SCCC x Singapore Book of Records 

The experienced and friendly Chefs were on hand to share and guide us on our tangyuan making experience, with facilitators on hand at each table to also help guide us throughout the process. Thereafter, we began our tangyuan making adventures! 

Some of us like myself, I don’t recall having much hands on experience making tangyuan. Together with the rest of the guests at SCCC Winter Solstice SG60 event, we came together and rolled out 168 bowls of tangyaun, arranged to form a 2.4m by 2.4m SG60 logo as a gift to Singapore marking Singapore’s 60th year of independence.

We got ourselves entered (through our participation) into Singapore Book of Records for the “Most Varieties of Tangyuan Made at an Event” and “Largest SG60 Logo Made from Bowls of Tangyuan”.

All these were completed in an hour as 12 professional chefs prepared the soup bases while the guests were all hands on deck simultaneously carving out the pre-prepared dough and assigned fillings to make the tangyuan. 

Once the completed tangyuan were cooked, they were scooped into bowls arranged to form the words “SG60” in the SG60 logo.

Marking SCCC Winter Solstice SG60 Celebrations (and eating tangyuan) 

Since we made into the Singapore Book of Records, we must take a big community group (happy family reunion) photo!, to mark this unique and special SCCC Winter Solstice SG60 celebrations. Of course, once the photo taking formalities were done, we went straight for the tables that were cooking the different tangyuan, attempting to try as many different varieties of tangyuan on offer!

Personally, I was very keen on the Hakka and Peranakan tangyuan, I have never heard or know about those two varieties of tangyuan. Alas, my fellow guests also had the same thoughts as me, many queuing up to try those two.

Although I didn’t get to taste the Hakka and Peranakan tangyuan, I still got to eat other varieties of tangyuan to celebrate Winter Solstice 2025 with my family, and group of heritage and cultural kakis.

Make this Community Level Winter Solstice Celebration at SCCC a regular annual event!

This fun, unique, fun and enjoyable hands on Winter Solstice SG60 celebration event organised by SCCC, I feel this event deserves to be a regular annual event at SCCC, where we can bring different communities, organisations, friends and supporters from different dialect and ethnic communities to come together for a community level of cross cultural interaction, building community bonds through this special gathering and reunion, getting hands on action in the making and tasting of tangyuan.

I also learned much more about Winter Solstice (冬至), beyond just family reunion and kinship, the deeper cultural significance and varieties of tangyuan made by different dialect groups. 

Thank you Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre for planning and organising a uniquely Singapo人 community festival, the SCCC Winter Solstice SG60 Community Celebration Event 2025!

Wishing all a Happy Winter Solstice 2025, may this season of reunion bring you, your family and loved ones, warmth, harmony, and good health! 

祝大家冬至快乐，团团圆圆，冬至安康！

60 Years of Diplomatic Relations between Singapore and Malaysia, as well as Singapore and Thailand

This special exhibition is the first collaboration between SCCC with the High Commission of Malaysia and the Royal Thai Embassy Singapore, to commemorate the establishment of 60 years of diplomatic relations between Singapore and Malaysia, as well as Singapore and Thailand.

According to Mr Alvin Tan, CEO/SCCC: “There is no better way to commemorate 60 years of diplomatic relations between Singapore and the two countries than with a photography exhibition on traditional kopitiams which can be found in all three countries. This is because kopitiams not only represent a common cultural experience shared by our three countries, they also symbolise the warm ties between our countries that endure even with the passing of time.” 

Mrs. Chonlatee Chanrachakul, Charge d’Affaires a.i. from Royal Thai Embassy Singapore said: “Kopitiams are more than just coffee shops; they are the enduring social pulse of our communities and a testament to the rich, interwoven cultural heritage of Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia. This exhibition, marking 60 years of diplomatic relations, invites everyone to savor the shared taste of Nanyang coffee and kaya toast—a sweet reminder that our deep history and warm friendships are beautifully brewed together.”

24 B&W Photographs of various Traditional Kopitiams in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand

This exhibition features 24 black-and-white photographs of various traditional kopitiams in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, taken by award-winning travel photographer and write Lester V. Ledesma over a period of more than a year.

This series of black and white photographs of traditional kopitiams honours the region’s vibrant kopitiam culture. They are well-cherished and well-loved community gathering spaces, enduring icons of Southeast Asia lifestyle. 

Lester shot the photographs on black-and-white film using vintage cameras as a timeless tribute to the iconic yet humble kopitiam that we in Southeast Asia loved so much, authentically capturing the character, raw charm and kopitiam lifestyle, beautifully showcased across the different 24 black-and-white photographs on display.

Photographer Mr Lester V. Ledesma shared: “I started this project in early 2024 at a humble Singapore coffeehouse, with a roll of black-and-white film and a 70-years-old rangefinder camera. Brewing Nostalgia is my way of celebrating what has been part of my life in the two-plus decades that I’ve lived in Singapore and I am thankful to SCCC for their support in showcasing our rich, authentic and truly homegrown coffee heritage.” 

Nostalgic Memories – Planning to Re-Explore my Old Places and Traditional Kopitiams 

Looking at the different traditional kopitiams in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, it brought back nostalgic memories of my childhood and travel days. The rustic, old school, laid back kopitiams, with their iconic wooden furniture, white marble table top, sipping my Nanyang kopi, with kaya bread toast and soft boiled eggs. 

In Singapore, there aren’t many traditional kopitiams around, most of them have changed with the modern times. Although I have visited some of the remaining traditional kopitiams in Singapore at North Bridge Road, Tanglin Halt and Lengkok Bahru, I have yet to check out the kopitiams at Jalan Benaan Kapal and Jalan Minyak. 

This is the time to reignite my nostalgic memories to re-explore those traditional kopitiams and old places in Singapore. 

As for those traditional kopitiams in Malaysia and Thailand, I will definitely keep a lookout for them when I travel and visit both countries again.

Brewing Nostalgia: Kopitiams in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand Special Exhibition

• Venue: Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre, Concourse, Level 1
• Dates: 3rd December 2025 to 30th April 2026

History of Lamb Weston

Lamb Weston was founded in 1950 by Gilbert Lamb, on a small farm in Weston, in the Pacific Northwest of the United States of America. They have grown into one of the world’s largest frozen potato companies and a trusted partner for restaurants worldwide. 

Over the decades, Lamb Weston has led the industry in innovation – from inventing the water gun knife (an innovative potato cutting technology), in the 1960s to pioneering its proprietary Stealth batter coating and developing a variety of unique fry cuts enjoyed by consumers globally. 

Four signature fries now in Singapore

Lamb Weston new retail range brings four distinct fry styles to Singapore, each designed to deliver crispy perfection every time:

1. Original Fries: Classic skin-on cut for a rustic, hand-cut appeal and authentic potato flavour
2. Grill Fries: Bold crinkle grooves seasoned with salt and pepper for a crunchy exterior and fluffy interior
3. Ziggy Fries: Signature zig-zag cut with deep ridges for unbeatable crispiness 
4. Potato Dippers: Unique scoop-shaped fries perfect for dipping, sharing, and adding fun to any meal

Each fry is coated with Lamb Weston’s exclusive Stealth batter, an invisible coating that locks in crispiness for twice as long as the regular fries – whether cooked in the oven or air fryer. All products are Halal-certified, vegan, and gluten-free, catering a diverse group of dietary preferences. 

Sustainability at the core

With sustainability at the core, Lamb Weston goes beyond production innovation with its sustainable packaging. The new retail packs are 20% thinner and contain at least 60% bio-renewable polyethylene made from used cooking oil, cutting their carbon footprint by around 30% compared to conventional packaging. 

This initiative supports Lamb Westons’s global sustainability targets to halve food waste and reduce carbon emissions by 25% by 2033.

Exclusive launch offers in Singapore

Lamb Weston is celebrating its debut in Singapore, the fries are available at a special introductory price of SGD$6.15 (usual price of SGD$6.65) for a limited time at FairPrice stores across Singapore.

From 22nd November 2025, there will be weekend sampling roadshows held at select FairPrice locations, where shoppers can taste the new fries and redeem a free Lamb Weston Fry Clip Fridge Magnet – a fun and practical food sealer shaped like a fry – with any two-pack purchase in a single transaction. Redemptions are available only during sampling events and while stocks last. 

“We’re thrilled to bring Lamb Weston’s world-class fries to consumers homes in Singapore,” said Jeevan Dass, Senior Commercial Director, Asia Pacific. “For 75 years, we’ve been driven by a love of potatoes and a passion for innovation. Our fries are more Lamb Weston Proprietary than just a snack, they’re crafted for real moments of joy – whether you’re sharing with family, entertaining friends, or simply indulging yourself. Launching in Singapore allows more consumers to experience the crispiness, flavor, and quality that have made Lamb Weston a trusted name around the world.”

ChefGenie – Singapore’s first AI-powered automated kitchen solution

ArtiChefGenie is Singapore’s first AI-powered automated kitchen solution, setting the stage for new era of food innovation in Singapore.

They are supported by EnterpriseSG, embarking on a 6-month F&B autonomous kitchen pilot around Singapore with local F&B brands. This pilot programme aims to trial autonomous kitchens as a manpower-lean format of expansion for F&B companies, and increase consumer receptivity towards those concepts.

This pilot programme was recently launched on 9th September 2025, at Punggol Digital District (PDD) by Guest of Honour, Ms Low Yen Ling, Senior Minister of State for Trade and Industry, and Culture, Community, and Youth. The PDD is a testbed for smart solutions spanning JTC’s business park, the Singapore Institute of Technology, Punggol Coast Mall, public transport nodes and community amenities, enabling a diverse community to try out ChefGenie’s offerings.

Bringing World Flavours to Life with Precision and Consistent Quality at SG 1st Autonomous International Food Fair

At Singapore first autonomous international food fair, ChefGenie is bringing world flavours to life with precision and consistent quality. This event features eight homegrown brands, including Warong Pak Sapari (MICHELIN Bib Gourmand), Springleaf Prata (MICHELIN recommended), Eat Pizza, Shihlin Taiwan Street Snacks, Takagi Ramen, Tuk Tuk Cha, The Hainan Story, and Instachef.

From hand-pulled prata to slow-brewed laksa broth, delicate Japanese ramen to traditional Taiwanese street snacks, the diversity and complexity of these dishes are made possible through ChefGenie’s proprietary smart cooking technology. The system is designed to replicate sophisticated cooking methods with precision, ensuring that each meal is prepared fresh and of restaurant quality.

From Pilot Success to Scalable Solutions for the F&B Industry

Aikit is the company behind ChefGenie,  they identified broader industry gaps of poor food quality and low customer engagement, with traditional options relying on microwaved frozen meals and outdated technology, leading to the development of ChefGenie – an AI-powered smart kitchen, capable of cooking globally inspired dishes round the clock.

They are designed to empower restaurants and food service providers with scalable, cost-efficient solutions. ChefGenie provides AI-driven kitchen capabilities with the aim of easing labour constraints, lowering operating costs, and building a more resilient, future-ready F&B ecosystem. 

This is a Singapore-grown blueprint for how food and technology can work together to serve better, smarter, and further. 

Powered by its proprietary AI-kitchen technology, ChefGenie ensures consistency, precision, and reliability, efficiently preparing each meal to order in just minutes. ChefGenie combines culinary authenticity with automation, making it possible to deliver richly layered, freshly cooked meals round the clock without compromising on flavour and texture.

It’s more than just an automated kitchen, ChefGenie’s smart technology supports end-to-end efficiency by automating key backend processes such as a stock tracking, ingredients replenishment, and data analysis. 

With its AI capabilities, they also allow for demand forecasting, popular items suggestions, and real-time menu adjustments based on consumer trends. A scalable solution designed to transform how local F&B businesses cook, serve, and grow. They addresses critical industry challenges such as labour shortages, rising operating costs, and quality consistency. 

“Autonomous kitchens are one way for F&B operators to develop new business models through the use of AI and technology. This pilot is also a good showcase of how brands can collaborate and collectively open new channels for growth. Enterprise Singapore will continue to support innovative formats like ChefGenie, to help local brands scale efficiently by leveraging automation, and remain relevant and competitive in today’s landscape”,said Jason Lim, Director, Food Services & Heartland Enterprises, Enterprise Singapore.

“At Aikit, we believe in building technology that solves real problems for everyday people and businesses. The success of InstaChef showed us how automation could improve food accessibility and address manpower challenges meaningfully.” Said Sky Goh, VP Business and Operations of Aikit Pte Ltd. “ChefGenie is the natural next step, an evolution of that vision into a future-ready platform that supports local enterprises, uplifts communities and delivers hot, quality meals at the touch of a button. We are happy to have launched in Punggol Digital District which is the best place to showcase how smart solutions can improve quality of life and look forward to sharing food from our local brands with the rest of Singapore.” 

Official Launch Promotion: Enjoy 4,000 Meals for Only $1.99 at PDD

From 9 to 14 September 2025, everyone is invited to savour freshly cooked meals for just $1.99 each, exclusively from ChefGenie-powered machines at the Punggol Coast Mall in Punggol Digital District. The offer is available daily from 12pm-8pm, while stocks last. This limited-time treat is the perfect chance to experience ChefGenie’s advanced AI kitchen in action and enjoy hot, delicious meals prepared on demand, featuring a variety of beloved local favourites.

Thoughts and Views from ChefGenie Official Media Launch Event

At the ChefGenie official media launch event on 9th September 2025, hearing the speeches, checking out how ChefGenie works and tasting some of their cuisines on offer, learning and understanding more about how technology innovation such as AI, can play a role in the F&B industry. I have been covering and writing about AI technology on my TGH Technology and Business portal/blog, and I can now add AI technology innovation coverage in the F&B industry.

Vending machine food quality and choices of food offered has become better with ChefGenie AI-powered automated kitchen solution. They are not going to (and will not) replace other F&B businesses, instead they plug a gap in offering more F&B choices at various locations in Singapore, from residential, schools, public spaces to industrial areas.

Ordering the food via the food kiosk or from the app, collecting the freshly cooked food from the vending machine, it was smooth and easy. Some cuisine might take a bit more time though. For someone like me who doesn’t buy much food from vending machines, or those microwaved frozen meals, I was impressed by the quality and consistency of some of the food that I tasted. 

I ordered a Butashoga Ramen during the ChefGenie official media launch event, for a ramen fan myself, I had to see and taste it for myself how would ramen turn out from a vending machine. Check out the photos below, from collection to eating a hearty hot ramen straight-out from ChefGenie vending machine. The Butashoga Ramen was good, I enjoyed it. 

Overall, I wasn’t able to try all the different cuisines on offer by ChefGenie, I would love to try out the prata by Springleaf (as a prata fan myself) and many more different cuisines on offer. I would check the ChefGenie app for the locations, and I would try out a different cuisine (and do my own food tasting) if I do come across a ChefGenie vending machine.

The Nanyang Breakfast in Singapore – A brief history and evolution 

While it may look like a humble and simple breakfast food to those who doesn’t know too much about this, the traditional Nanyang breakfast in Singapore tells a rich history and cultural heritage story. 

Pioneered by the Hainanese, and shaped by the diverse influences of Chinese, Malay, Peranakan, and Western cultures, the Nanyang breakfast I more than just a meal – It’s a reflection of Singapore’s multicultural identity. 

When you visit The Nanyang Breakfast Club, you will get a cosy and immersive clubhouse experience where you can learn more about the history and evolution of the traditional Nanyang breakfast. 

The Nanyang Breakfast Club has interactive displays, informative storytelling, and rich archival materials. This exhibition will also showcase the components and impact of this humble and iconic breakfast food on Singaporean life and culture, as well as the role of kopitiams (a.k.a. coffee shops) as community spaces that have connected generations of Singaporeans. 

According to Mr Alvin Tan, CEO/SCCC: “With this travelling exhibition, SCCC hopes to provide the historical, cultural and social context behind one of Singapore’s favourite breakfast staples, showcase how this traditional breakfast has evolved with the times, and highlight how local Chinese culture can be found in everyday life here in Singapore.” 

Heartwarming Nanyang Kopi Sharing and Brewing at The Nanyang Breakfast Club

At the media launch of The Nanyang Breakfast Club: Let’s Lim Kopi, Jiak Roti, we had a heartwarming kopi sharing from the curator on the exhibition. Thereafter, we heard heartwarming Nanyang kopi stories from Kim Guan Guan Coffee and probably Singapore’s No.1 Nanyang kopi fan Kopi Scott!

Get ready for exciting galore and diverse range of programmes, such as offshore tours to kelongs and kampongs, ghostly encounters with the spookier parts of our heritage, exploring old schools and heritage hotels, also a secret “undisclosed” experience, and many more!

Singapore’s rich built heritage includes 75 National Monuments, over 7,000 conserved buildings and structures, and many more other historical sites and landmarks such as bridges, reservoirs and cemeteries, which may not be commonly associated with the term! Through SHF 2024 workshops, tours, trails, exhibitions and other activities across (and beyond the usual norm) Singapore, SHF festival goers will get to experience the history, heritage, culture and stories behind these buildings, sites and structures, packed with its own unique culture and heritage of the communities that live, work and play in and around them. 

SHF Festival Director David Chew said, “Singapore’s buildings, sites and structures – our built heritage – are more than just brick and stone. They hold the stories and experiences of diverse communities past and present, and it is the people and their stories that bring these spaces to life. They are showcases of the rich, unique culture and heritage that Singaporeans share, and we hope that many will have fun at the exciting offerings this year and discover new facets of our heritage at the same time. Ultimately, we hope that SHF will inspire Singaporeans to join us in celebrating and safeguarding our heritage together.” 

Together with more than 80 community partners, SHF 2024 celebrates the richness of Singapore’s built heritage which you can explore by foot, on bus and even on a boat. For the first time, local heritage brand Yeo’s will be an Official Partner of SHF.
