Eco-Harmony Retail & Cafe

A visit to Eco-Harmony, Singapore's organic plant-based restaurant nestled under HDB blocks, offers more than just a meal—it’s a celebration of nature’s richness and a step towards a sustainable lifestyle. Founded in 2007, this café is a social enterprise, supporting Kampung Senang’s charity and education initiatives. Committed to quality, they craft every dish using high-quality organic ingredients at affordable prices, ensuring that healthy eating remains accessible to all.

We started off with their tempeh, and although I’m not usually a fan, this one took me by surprise. It was crispy, flavorful, and surprisingly addictive. I found myself reaching for more without even realizing it!

Initially, I mistook the chicken chop for luncheon meat pieces based on its presentation. It was served alongside lettuce and a mixed fruit salad dressed in a creamy sauce, adding a refreshing contrast to the dish.

The Yam Abacus looked promising, but my pet peeve was how they all clumped together into a sticky mass. Instead of distinct, chewy abacus beads, they stuck to one another, making it hard to pick up an individual piece. The texture leaned more towards a lump of starch rather than the bouncy, firm bite I was expecting.

Every set meal comes with organic salad and daily soup, making it a wholesome choice. Since the Olive Fried Organic Noodle Set was a new addition to the menu, we had to give it a try. The noodles were generously tossed in olive oil, mixed with tau gua (beancurd) and cabbage, giving it a light yet fragrant touch. However, as a non-vegetarian, I found the flavors a bit too simple and lacking the depth I usually enjoy in a noodle dish.

The Sesame Sauce with Organic Noodle Set had a comforting, home-cooked feel, featuring fresh greens, carrots, and mushrooms. The rich sesame sauce was generously drizzled over the noodles, adding a nutty aroma and creaminess. While the ingredients were simple, the sauce brought everything together, making it a hearty and wholesome dish.

The Toona Organic Fried Rice Set is a wholesome, plant-based dish packed with earthy flavors and vibrant ingredients. Infused with toona leaves, the rice carries a distinctive, aromatic taste, perfectly complemented by a mix of multigrain rice, crunchy vegetables, and light seasoning. Each bite delivers a nutrient-rich and satisfying experience, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a healthy yet flavorful meal.

The Dumplings with Organic Noodle Soup Set felt like a comforting, homemade meal, perhaps something I would whip up with instant noodles, fresh vegetables, and mushrooms at home. The simplicity of the dish, paired with the light yet flavorful broth, made it a hearty and familiar choice.

The Organic Vegetable Popiah Set stood out with its thick wrap and generously packed fillings. Unlike typical vegetarian popiah, this version featured tau gua cubes, vegetables, and more, giving it a unique texture.

While the taste leaned towards the bland side, dipping it in their chilli or white sauce instantly elevated the flavors, adding an extra kick to each bite.

The soup intrigued me with its combination of beetroot, walnut, and cashew nut, a mix I don’t often come across. At first sip, it had a slightly raw taste, but after a few mouthfuls, I got used to it. The flavors gradually grew on me, leaving a light and clean aftertaste, making it quite a refreshing experience.

Last but not least, we decided to end our meal with their healthy desserts. Made with all-natural ingredients and minimal sweetness, they stayed true to the cafe’s wholesome approach. As we finished our meal, we could feel the lightness and cleanliness in our bodies—no heaviness, just a refreshing sense of well-being. I was even told that having a full meal here wouldn’t leave you with a food coma!
