Singapore-Inspired Salad Dressing Workshop by Myristica Hill (TGW'26)

What does Singapore taste like when you bottle it? In this flavour-led, hands-on workshop by Myristica Hill, participants are invited to explore Singapore's edible landscape through the creation of a personalised salad dressing inspired by local ingredients and culinary influences. Drawing from Singapore's rich biodiversity and food culture, this session transforms familiar herbs, plants, and flavours into something contemporary, expressive, and entirely your own. Guided by Lita Nithiyanandan, participants will discover how edible plants can be reimagined into everyday condiments while gaining insight into Singapore's unique food heritage, urban farming movement, and the stories behind local ingredients. Part workshop, part tasting journey, this experience encourages participants to see Singapore's landscape through a new lens - one that is both edible and connected to place. Myristica Hill supports meaningful employment by hiring seniors and individuals navigating mental health challenges.

ABOUT MYRISTICA HILL: Myristica Hill was founded by Laletha Nithiyandan (Lita) and artist Steve Chua under the umbrella of Gastrogeography of Singapore. Together, they celebrate Singapore's flavours and edible landscape through botanical gastronomy experiences, recipe development, and creative explorations of local food culture. - This workshop is part of The Good Weekend 2026 - a National Day weekend market created to celebrate the people, ideas, and small businesses shaping a more thoughtful Singapore. Beyond the workshops, the weekend brings together local makers, social enterprises, independent brands, food vendors, and community groups who are using what they do to create impact in different ways - from supporting vulnerable communities to championing sustainability, local craft, and more conscious choices.
