Pay What You Like: 3 Experiences Where You Decide How Much It’s Worth!
Drop by, enjoy and pay what you think is appropriate. Would you believe that there is not just one, but three ways in which you can do that in Singapore? Read on for the big reveal.
Annalakshmi
Whether it’s Thosai, Gobi Manchurian or Masala Dal that you crave, have it satiated at Annalakshmi’s delicious Indian vegetarian buffet. Located just a stone’s throw from Clarke Quay, it’s where you should go to fill up on carbs before heading for a night out. Expect unpretentious, home-style cooking, served with a side of the genuine love for humanity that drives the non-profit restaurant’s belief of “Eat what you want, give what you feel”. Your contribution goes towards supporting an arts and cultural organisation, so it’s all for a worthy cause. Call ahead for reservations as this place tends to get really busy at mealtimes.

Drury Lane
Named after the street in English nursery rhyme “The Muffin Man”, Drury Lane pays homage to its namesake by letting customers decide how much to pay for its delicious muffins. Their muffins come in an assortment of flavours, ranging from banana and walnut, to kaya (coconut jam), to green tea, and they go great with a latte or as an accompaniment to the café’s other home baked treats. If you have a sweet tooth, you’ll love the Candy Bar Pie – a rich tart made of peanut butter nougat and salted caramel, glazed with chocolate. With menu specials that change every week, the café is a hit with the weekend brunch crowd. Just look out for the unit along Tanjong Pagar Road that features a bright red shop front!
