Well I am not a particularly big fan of veggies - more of a carnivore than a omnivore, but when I was invited to try out The Lawn by a university mate (wow, that was ages ago) I was rather intrigued by the philosophy behind the place.

The idea for The Lawn came about after an exchange trip to the golden state of California, where we quickly realized that the salad-eating trend has advanced and evolved beyond the conventional salad bars in Singapore now. Unlike conventional salad bars where cold, processed meat with run-of-the-mill dressings (we think that’s totally flat and boring) are served with your greens, Salad Cafes in California serves tantalizing premium grills with unique and wacky dressings! Surely that will tease your tastebuds!

As the old adage goes, “What’s good for you is almost certainly not going to taste good”. The Lawn is on a mission to shatter this myth and put the “Oomph” back into all well-deserving salads.

So for hungry tastebuds hunting for yummier & healthier options in the bustling city of Singapore, we proudly present to you, The Lawn.

The only Specialty Grill & Salad Café in Singapore where you get to fully customize your own Salad, pairing your favorite perky greens to your favorite premium grills, topped with unique dressings AND without a hefty bill to go along with it.

As we say it here at The Lawn, "Come Meat your Greens", just the way you want it!

I asked whether there are any standard combinations that people can just pick in order to avoid a disaster in making the salad, but was told that whatever you pick will naturally work well with each other if you like them. Ok, that's reasonable. Some dressings will go better with others as well, but you get to keep the dressing separate so you can dip sparingly if it is too strong for the entire bowl.

You then pick the greens from the counter. There is quite a wide variety of ingredients to choose from.

Well on to the salads! First up, the beef cubes and dory fish. The beef was juicy and flavorful and quite solid to bite on to (not tough). It felt like someone cut up a piece of steak and laid it on salad. There was also the dory fish which was in my opinion, better than the beef! The marinate is very well done and the fish was fresh.




Overall it was a great deal for a meal though. Also do note that they might be closing dinner service soon and opening up for weekends instead.

If you are feeling ready for some grilled meat, and wouldn't mind being a bit more healthy at the same time, go to The Lawn and take away some deliciousness at a price that is hard to beat! Don't go there if you are only feeling up for something "light" -- there is nothing light about these bowls.

I first knew about this car thing when a halved car was spotted at the Expo during one of the weekend. People were tweeting #halfcar about it and seems rather incredulous that it got halved. It's not everyday that you get to see a halved car. How did it happen?

Then this video came out:


So apparently on the Youtube description, I found out that it is to show the most bizarre and unexpected footage captured on in-car cameras. You'll never know what could happen to your car on the road.

Then 2 other videos popped up.

This is pretty cool, you never know if someone will spray something on your car.



This is my favorite:



What are these videos are trying to say?
Answer: Get a free in-car camera when you sign up for DriveShield, a comprehensive motor insurance, for added peace of mind. You never know what's gonna happen to your car so.. expect the unexpected!
