Yummy Salad Bowl at Soup Spoon Union

I had my dinner at Soup Spoon Union at Raffles City shopping mall. I selected the salad bowl set with roasted pumpkin soup and lemon tea drink. The salad portion size is big and comes with about four or five falafel balls. I'm not really a fan of falafel balls but there are only two vegetarian choices for protein. The other option is teriyaki tofu but I read that they are not delicious. Maybe next time, I will try teriyaki tofu.

I like romain lettuce,corn, avocado, pineapple, dried cranberries. However the chilled soba is not recommended. It was just a clump of soba and tasted soggy soft. Last week I chose pesto penne for carbohydrate and I find it much better than the chilled soba though they were rather oily. I felt very full after eating the salad bowl and roasted pumpkin soup. I enjoyed the salad bowl with basil pesto penne with mint aioli. 

I find the order list very helpful as you know what nutrients you are eating. You can choose three fibre, one protein, one carbo, one base and one dressing.

Very Cold Weather in Singapore

Today, temperature dropped to 21.2 degrees celsius. I like cold weather and it reminds me of the great time I had in Taiwan. How wonderful if Singapore is always so cool. 

In a way, we are saving electricity as now we don't switch on fans when we sleep. I guess this month, electricity usage in Singapore will drop as there is no need to switch on fan or air-conditioner. 

One thing I'm surprised about the weather is my mum complained that her hands are painful from cracks. Even though it very cold, humidity level in Singapore is normally high.

Superb Vegetarian (素Perb) Restaurant at Tampines

Located at Blk 835 Tampines street 83, Superb vegetarian offers a good selection of local dishes at affordable price. I like their noodle which is springy smooth. The laksa ($3.50) is also delicious. They also have Chwee kueh and Chee Cheong fun. I'm happy that there is finally a vegetarian eatery that offers delicious at affordable price. 

How to get there?

At Tampines bus interchange, go to bus 291(red) to Tampines Street 83

                          Xin Zhou bee hoon ($4.00) is quite good but a little salty. 

Shredded chicken noodle ($3.50)

Laksa ($3.50). I think this tastes better than the one at Grove.

                                                Chewe Kueh (5 for $2.00)

Vegetarian Lunch Buffet at Lingzhi Vegetarian Restaurant

I was looking forward to my first vegetarian buffet! I must say it's quite worth a try. If any of you know of any vegetarian buffet, please share.

I went to Velocity@Novena Square Lingzhi vegetarian restaurant. I was delighted to see fried bee Hoon and curry vegetables. They are quite delicious and reminds me of the free fried bee Hoon and curry vegetables I had at the temple. 

We opted for tom yum and vegetable soup. Then we went to select various vegetables, dimsum. For dessert, I took walnut cream and almond cream which I enjoyed thoroughly. My cousin had almond jelly. We did not try the banana cake as we were too full. I'm most impressed with the delicious fresh yam. The yam literally melted in my mouth (after I put in the soup for a long time)! If you love yam, you must try it! 

I was delighted to see various vegetarian dishes like dim sum and rojak. It's quite challenging to find vegetarian dim sum and rojak.
