Initially i wanted to have lunch @ 7 sensations.
However, as i walked past The Verge, i saw the newly renovated vegsenz having 20% off their food. They are a new cafe serving organic food.

I was browsing at the menu outside the shop and one of the staff came to assist me. They are abt 18 different types of food being served. I ordered the luohan vegetarian brown rice set($9.50). The staff there strongly recommended me the rainbow millet rice as it is quite special- 2 moulded millet rice being served with salad and other veggies.

The brown rice set took abt 5 mins to arrive. It was served with a moulded red brown rice, 2 sushi roll, a side salad, mixed veggies( consists of lotus roots, asparagus, cabbage,carrots...etc) and a soup. The rice is quite ok, not too mushy or hard. The mixed veggies is flavourful, with so many colours in a portion and it was well-braised- even the capsicum were tender and soft.

While i was enjoying the food, the staff came and asked me how was the food and asked for improvements. I suggested implementing the daily brown rice set so that customers would get to try different food everyday. As they are still a new establishment, they would slowly add more items to their menu.

They are having 20% discount for their food. Hurry down now and try it!

It's a little ridiculous to pay $17 for a plate of salad and a bowl of mushroom soup.
I had lunch tat marche vivocity.
I had salad from the salad bar and there are 3 sizes to choose from- small, medium and large. I requested for the medium size but when i saw the plate, i think it's too small for the veggies thus i requested for the large. I also had a cream of mushroom soup. When the staff saw my plate of salad, they told me that i could actually pile up a few more, like salmon salad, cucumber salad and olives. However, i knew i couldnt finish even if i pile up the whole plate. I jus take what i could finish.

The salad bar is quite ok, quite a few choices.
The cream of mushroom soup is a little too diluted, too milky and there wasnt much mushroom flavour in it.

I paid $17 inclusive of GST for jus a plate of salad and a bowl of mushroom soup.

Had vegetarian food @ Create healthy lifestyle cafe.
The Brown rice set of the day: Budock brown rice set.
I was told it comes with a boiled veggies, curry veggies and a side salad.
However, my brown rice set comes with a boiled veggies, beancurd and side salad.
I was a little puzzled and asked them why my set is different.
The staff said replied that i did not inform them dat i want the curry veggies.
What nonsense! The other customers who ordered the brown rice set did not inform them that they wanted curry veggies but they still got it. It was their mistake but they do not wanna own up. Even the portion and the type of veggies i got were different.

I was a little upset and perhaps i would never step in to the shop again.

I love walking along boat quay, sitting there, watching the river and taking photos
I was at the CBD area and my stomach is calling for help.
I walked to raffles xchange and saw ''souperlicious''.
It was located in a small cafe, housed together with cook book asia, yummi chiffon.
''Souperlicious'', from the name u would have guessed that they specialised in soups.
Well, i ordered half size of the caesar salad, a shroomy mushroom soup and an ice peach tea.($11.15)inclusive of Svc charge.

The mushroom soup taste quite ok but i think it's a little too thick(too much flour) and there were bits of walnuts in it. It added some crunch.

The 1/2 sized caesar salad is just enough for one person. Romaine lettuce, croutons and cherry tomatoes in caesar dressing. The dressing is a little on the heavy side and they have added too much dressing.

I had to ''self-svc'' myself and i cant understand why do they have to impose svc charge.

After reading some reviews frm HGW, i discovered another salad bar at marina square.
The salad bar took over the place where kam boat used to be.
The inerior looks very clean and there are a few station where u order, pay and collect ur food.

They have 10 signature salads to choose frm but if u can ''create ur own salad'' by choosing the salad base, toppings and even dressings! There are quite a number of salad dressings to choose frm- asian, western and light.

I ordered one of their signature salad- ''Oh crab Lah''. This is actually a ''singapore style'' salad. There are croutons, cherry tomatoes, crabstick, vermicelli, onions mixed with romaine lettuce and their own chilli crab dressing. The salad comes in quite a big portion and the ingredients are very fresh. I like the dressing which taste a little like mayonnaise and a little spicyness to finish it off. YOu can also ask to reduce the dressing if u want something light.

There is also a corner where u can get pre-packed salads and wraps. They have thai papaya salad, quinoa salad, yoghurt and fruit juice.

Svc here is friendly.

Lunch was @ pastamania.
Lot 1 shopper's mall is quite small and there isnt much food here.
I ordered a caesar salad & a bowl of minestrone soup.
It was a simple salad with hard-boiled egg, croutons and bacon bits.
The bacon bits were too salty, the croutons were quite ok... fragrant.
The minestrone soup is a little too watery. There were cubes of carrots and onions. However, it was too mild.

After lunch, i went to boon lay shping ctr with mum. There wasnt much to buy as we are going on a tour soon.

Lunch today @ The soup spoon.
It's my first time there and there were already quite alot of people having their soup, tortilla wraps.

I ordered a caesar salad, top up with a chicken and mushroom soup and a cup of ice lemon tea. The portion of the caesar salad is a little small, a few leaves of romaine lettuce and hard-boiled egg. I could not find any bacon bits in it. I like the dried cranberries that add a little sweetness.

The chicken and mushroom soup looks more like a stew. There were generous chunks of chicken meat, potates and my fav carrot, stewed with various types of mushrooms. It wasnt creamy and it's really nice.

I saw a gentleman wearing black uniform. I think he is the manager or in-charge. Instead of having the staff meeting at somewhere more appropriate, they chose to have their discussion at the dining premise. I think it wasnt very appropriate.
