Salad Corner at Amoy Food Centre

I ♥ Salad!

On days when I'm feeling really guilty for eating a lot of unhealthy and sinful food I'd then make up for it by having salad on my next meal. However, I'm quite picky on where to get fresh greens as I don't want to run the risk of ending up with a bad stomach or worst amoebiasis. I'm glad though that our local hawker stalls are taking the precautionary steps to practice proper food handling and hygiene all the time. Oh, one of the many things I love about the Lion City.

Working in the CBD has its perks. One is definitely the endless food choices available. Since Amoy Food Centre is just a few steps away from my office, this has been my go-to place on days when I'm just too lazy to bring a packed lunch. Let me share with you one of my favorite stalls.

Introducing The Salad Corner.



The ordering process here is quick and easy:

First, you choose whether you want to create your own salad or to get one of the listed ones on the menu board. I normally go for the 1st option which is to have my DIY salad.

Second step is to choose 5 basic toppings -- the choices are endless! From fruits (mandarin orange, apple, pineapple), beans, nuts, egg, carbs (pasta, soba noodles, red rice) and more veggies (celery, olives, carrots, mushrooms, cucumber, cabbage, tomatoes, corn, bell peppers)! You can also add some meat like tuna, crab meat, chicken for a minimal charge.

My personal favorite includes : mushrooms, egg, fusilli pasta, olives and mandarin orange!

The 3rd and final step is to choose your dressing from more than 10 kinds available. I've tried the Japanese Sesame, Honey Mustard Vinaigrette and the Honey Balsamic Vinaigrette and they're all very yummy!

What makes The Salad Corner a hit among its loyal patrons is the fact that you're getting clean, fresh and delicious salad mixes at such affordable price. The basic salad is just S$4.90 and believe me, the serving is HUGE! Even Paul loves The Salad Corner too that we began a little weekly tradition of having salad for dinner a few months back. Deciding what toppings and dressing goes into our individual salad has become an interesting evening conversation every now and then.

So, when it comes to having a healthy salad for lunch, The Salad Corner is my #1 choice in Singapore.

The Salad Corner is located at Amoy Street Food Centre stalls #01-41 & #01-60 (Grab and Go Salad), 7 Maxwell Rd, Singapore. They also have a branch at Market Street stall #01-10, 50 Market Street, Singapore.

Franny Mommy Finds : Happy Noz Sticker Patch

As a parent, I have one thing that I dread the most and that's when any of my kids fall sick. From the moment we detect the faintest sniffle followed by sneezes and runny nose, we know one thing is for sure -- we will be having a couple of sleepless nights. For twins, it is very common that when one falls sick, expect the other one to follow suit in just a matter of days, sometimes within hours even.  A few years ago, my twins would catch a cold and we really would struggle because they'd become very fussy and cranky at night. They're sleepy and tired from the cold but with a clogged nose, they can't really have a restful night and this means, either one of us will have to sit up and carry them all throughout the night. It came to a point wherein both kids were sick and Paul and I eventually caught the bug too. It was just so hard to care for the kids while you're not in the best condition as well. This got me researching on remedies on how we can have a good night ...

Bag of Beans (Charito) in Tagaytay

I can't believe that we have been frequenting Tagaytay for more than a decade now and not once have I written about Bag of Beans ! I tried searching all over this blog and I found..nothing. To think that not a single trip to Tagaytay, back then, would ever be complete without stopping by Bag of Beans for lunch or merienda. I must have been to engrossed with their coffee and bread that I wasn't able to take photos of the place and their food thus no blog entry. They, after all, have one of the best brewed coffee in Tagaytay and the yummiest bread to go with it too. Bag of Beans has been an institution in Tagaytay. Just like us, other tourists and visitors would make sure to drop by in order to grab a bite or to take home some of their homemade goodies every time they find themselves in Tagaytay. Bag of Beans started with one branch along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Main Road across Residence Inn Zoo and it wasn't even overlooking the Taal. While they may lack in having a scenic ...

IKEA Singapore Pyjamas Party

For those who have watched the movie 500 Days of Summer starring Zooey Deschanel and my ex-boyfriend Joseph Gordon-Levitt, you probably also loved this scene: Paul and I are regular shoppers of IKEA . It's highly possible that someday, we will be able to furnish our future home with IKEA furniture pieces and items as it has been our go-to place since our 1st day here in Singapore. We would joke that if only we can live in IKEA, we probably would go for it. Well, who would have thought that the opportunity would come for us to "spend the night" in IKEA? A week ago, Paul and I were chosen to be one of the lucky few to join the exclusive IKEA Pyjamas Party . It was a 4-hour event starting at 11PM and we were told to come in..what else?!...our PJs. We were too shy though so we just went in our comfy t-shirt and shorts. Well, some were really brave and came in their full PJs complete with fluffy bedroom slippers! This event was to launch the 2015 IKEA catalogue also...
