  • Inside the Rise of PastaGo: Science & Corporate Culture [TBS 41]

    Inside the Rise of PastaGo: Science & Corporate Culture [TBS 41]
    2025/12/02

    We meet the guy who looked at Singapore’s brutal F&B scene and said…


    “Yeah, sure. Let’s sell fresh pasta.”


    Introducing Darren Tan, Co-founder & Brand Manager of PastaGo, the young entrepreneur who went from kneading dough in an abandoned kitchen during COVID to building one of the fastest-growing pasta brands around.


    And trust us, nothing about this journey is “al dente.”


    Think:

    🔥 Opening-day chaos

    🔥 The surprising science behind making pasta that survives delivery (AND picky customers)

    🔥 The secret psychology behind portions, add-ons, and why you think you’re full

    🔥 And why he refuses to offer discounts even on Day 1


    This isn’t just a pasta story.


    It’s a masterclass in product obsession, scrappy scaling, and breaking F&B “rules” one plate at a time.


    🎧 Tune in to hear Darren’s full story — the risks, the realities, and the pasta revolution he’s trying to build.
