Pasta making + durian tasting

We feasted on handmade pasta and fresh MSW durians for this team-building event.

Pasta making + durian tasting

Jon, our resident chef, teaches lab members how to make beautiful pasta!

It was a lot of fun!


Jean-Sebastien’s pasta machine was doing wonders!

Our pasta is artisanal, handmade, and crafted from the best ingredients- just like our research 😉

Sarah, the head chef, helped us cook our own pasta!

After devouring our cooked pasta, we treated ourselves to some durian! We tried out the D88 (XO), D13 (Red Prawn), Black Thorn and MSW varieties.

Not only do we like to eat durian, but we also like to sequence it too.

Thanks Jon for organizing, and thanks everyone for joining and helping out! 📸 A perfect day captured by Zhenhao, Jon, and Seeu Si.
