6 F&B spots that reward you for bringing reusable containers

In light of both last year’s Circuit Breaker and our current Phase 2 (Heightened Alert) measures, it is undeniable that every Singaporean is familiar with having to tapau food. As a result of being unable to dine-in, Singaporeans are only allowed to consume their food at home, leading to a steep influx of discarded disposable containers.

Many have adopted an eco-friendlier lifestyle with reusable containers and cups, which is supported by numerous F&B outlets who now offer incentives in the form of free food or discounts in order to encourage more consumers to bring their own tapau containers. This way, it’s good for the environment and it’s good for you.
