Real Food

Real Food?

Heyyy there, so sorry for the hiatus there.

Been really lazy to update this space, but trust me lots of post coming up this weekend

Came over Real Food for lunch cause one of my colleague wanted to eat something healthy~

It is conveniently located at the basement of The Central @Clarke Quay Mrt Station.

Looked really clean with the 

$9.80 

4/4/14

The central b1-52

After contemplating between pastas/grains/sandwich...

Decided to go for the simplest:

Grilled Veggie Sandwich ($9.80) just because my colleagues had chosen the grains & pasta so i shall try something different as well!

Sneak peak of what's on the inside!! 

Here's the secret! It's basically somewhat vegetarian food..

Lots of colours ^^ which makes me feel really happy!

From tomato sauce to capciums to cucumbers to eggplants topped with mozzarella cheese 

Served with a side of fresh salad (there isn't any dressing, imo)

Pleasantly presented, this is definitely a light lunch so if you're feeling really hungry go for the pastas or grains instead! Although this sandwich cost less than $10, I felt that it can be cheaper, a lil expensive for a vegan sandwich! 

------

My colleagues ordered the Organic Fried Rice ($7.80) which was pretty yummy!

It is brown-rices with lotsa mini capcium, carrots and beans!

I like the idea of having brown rice, I mean it's pretty rare to have fried rice using brown rice right?

-----

Saw a handful of customers ordering the wanton soups! Smelled so delish to me! If you're planning to come over here, give it a try too! The mushrooms pasta are pretty normal in my opinion, nothing too fancy.

-----

The store is also a little mini-grocer where they sell various organic fruits/veg & 

there's even a section where there is sauces/ grains/ apple chips etc etc

A cozy place to chill but do bear in mind the lightning is little dim, so I don't advocate studying here!

Loving the idea of having something healthy to eat amidst all the fast-food/ fried food/food with gravy..

Will come over for a second try! Prices on the menu are nett priced!!:)

---

Sometimes, our body are crying out for us to eat cleaner!

Try it, or better still, start your day right, start from wholegrain!
I know how it's tempting to walk pass those neighbourhood bakery smeling the tuna/hotdog fresh from the oven, how damn hard it is to resist such yummy goodness, but do it anyway.

Walk right pass & get that loaf of wholemeal bread instead!

My Awesome Cafe

My Awesome Cafe

Hey there, been busy working which explains why this space has been much neglected, but don't worry I have more new cafes to share with you guys!

-----

Yes, this time it's all about the greens~!

It's been awhile since I last ate a decent salad, miss the ones at amoy oh god.

Hopped over to Telok Ayer for some awesome dinner!

Pretty interesting concept eh?

Yes, you've probably would have walked right past this cafe without even realising it is actually a cafe to begin with! 

Okay so here is the menu, it's a really old school/ vintage kinda cafe.
& ironically they don't serve chinese food.

the interior of the cafe, the rustic look

& the old school tables, and the napkins were carefully folded like calligraphy papers!

Oh how I miss my secondary school days

& now after we order our food, as usual I'll walked around the shop floor tryna take pics to show your guys, I always appear like some weirdo taking pic of everything haha don;t judge me.

Now pick a glass, they have it in all shapes & sizes!

& of course, fill you glass with some water!

hahaha yes, this is the water dispenser! how cool, looked like some ancient holy water or sort eh?

& here is where they prepare the salads~!

Yes, the bread & pudding is tempting me so badly, ughhh

they look so chewy and good 

more brownies & Bread&pudding~

It cost about $4-5 per slice, it was pretty steep imo, for the small slice of pastry~

Decide to give it a miss cause we were too full after the salad.

Yes, we were actually feeling really full after the salad!

-----

So here is the MY AWESOME SALAD ($15.00)

It was an incredibly large bowl of salad!

Lotsa greens packed with lotsa proteins too

Quite amazed at the generosity and portion given

We had a hearty meal indeed!
Breaking it down: 

How awesome is this, so good! You name it they have it!
Well maybe if they offer eggs to replace one other protein will be even better!
I am sucker for having eggs in my salad!
-----

The place on a weekday was not too crowded, a good place to unwind,

Especially so if you are working nearby the CBD Area.

It is conveniently located near Amoy Food Centre/ Telok Ayer MRT station as well!

Hope over for your daily greens & eat clean!

Makes me feel healthier altogether!

-----

Another commendable thing about this cafe is that even the toilet are decorated, at least I see some efforts even in the toilet.

not sure if it was originally like that but the basins tap was like some old school pipe & I actually didn't know how to use them *face palm* so I ended up washing my hands at the nearby basins (normal) tap. Din't manage to take photo cause my phone wasn't with me. 

Go have some fun at the tap in the toilet yeah!
---
What's more they operate till late on most days!
A good place to chill after work for those working at he CBD area!
Staff was pretty friendly as well! Good job! :)

Going Green

Green Wednesday.

virgin try at Salad Stop @ Marina Bay Financial Center Branch

---

Had 5 basic sides for $6.00/-

Brown Rice | Corn | Pumpkin | Kimchi | Lentils

Takeaway- Additional 30cents.

To be honest, I think the Salads at Amoy Food Centre or even the one at Fresh + was way better than this.

Not only the price was a little cheaper $4.50 (for 5 basic toppings) or $5 (for a side of meat)- Amoy Salad pricing

----

Most disappointing part, there isn't egg at all :(
Salad without egg is like not having cherries on a cake boohoo

& one side of meat is additional $2.50?! What in the world.

Oh well, & the portion of the base salad was pretty pathetic too.

Dinner

Favourite

Sunday.

Made my own soup \y brunh! Really been into eating healthier lately.

I mean of course I still eat-out but I try to order things that are not too heavy~

No oil or MSG just a pinch of salt ~ 

it's always gonna be healthy Sunday (fingers crossed, no temptation on Sundays)

I even borrowed mags reading up on fitness & nutrition etc..

How I wish my mom allows me to use the oven/ stir fry

& if you don't know I am a big fan of

*DrumRolll pleasee*

& yes, my friend actually got me a box of these from Japan...

Really touched, I thought she'll give me a few but not the entire box!

ok well, there's only 8 inside but it's strawberryyyy flavoured  (*_*)y

y'all know the thing about Japanese food, they look so exquisite, wrapped and presented so neatly 

it's almost as if all their food are ready to be gifted to your friends without even having the hassle to wrap it, cause it's already wrapped...

mag + strawberries + mini strawberry cake~ 

    

pic below credits

it's custard with a strawberry layer!
it is pretty much similar to Tokyo Banana but with strawberry filling!
why isn't this bigger? it should be the size of Tokyo bananna!

gave some to my family member so I am left with 2
I heart strawberries!-----

G'night it's Monday yet again.
