To foster closer friendships among neighbours, the Let’s Makan initiative encourages neighbours to gather and get to know each other better over food. We are always looking for interesting makan stories to share and have partnered with Neo Garden Catering to organise the photo contest. A massive thank you to everyone who sent in your entries!
The winning entry was “My wonderful neighbours” by Mabel Tan. You may see her submission here.
In addition to submitting a photo, Mabel also shared her story of how she came to be close friends with her neighbours in an interview with The Sunday Times. We’re truly inspired by how a simple makan session has brought Mabel and her neighbours together to explore other interests!
The next round of the photo contest is now open! This time, we are looking not only for the most interesting photo, but also the best caption along with the photo. To win a Neo Garden buffet session for you and your neighbours, join the contest now at http://kindness.sg/letsmakan.
