Think salad and the first thing that comes to mind (at least for this bunny) will be plain boring greens. Well, The Lawn was set up to change this particular perception. The bunny visited the 2nd outlet of the not-so-usual salad bar, located at AXA Tower, with the hubby, at owner Jonathan's invitation. Oh my, looking at the offerings, the bunny was really spoilt for choice!The order process is fairly straightforward. Customers just have to mark on the order chit what they'll like to get and orde
The order process is fairly straightforward. Customers just have to mark on the order chit what they'll like to get and order at the counter that is nearest to the door. Then, simply pay at the cashier.
The decision part for ordering is gonna take a lot more work. Choose from salad or olive rice as the base and there's a mind-boggling 10 types of grills that goes with the base and a whopping 12 different kinds of dressing that you can pick. If you've picked the salad, you'll still need to choose 5 out of 26 toppings that goes into the salad bowl.
A quick chat with Jonathan revealed that the most popular grills in the house are (in no particular order) Ben's Beef Rub (+$5), Chicken Breast with Fresh Herbs and the Char-grilled Prawns with Garlic. Jonathan had also generously brought out all the grills for us to try.
On sampling, I had to agree with the crowd's selection of the Char-grilled Prawns with Garlic (+$4). The prawns had a really buttery fragrance to them. Texture wise, I could almost feel the prawns bouncing around my mouth as I chewed - they're really QQ.
Moving on to the dressings, there's a mixture of classic dressings such as apple cider vinaigrette and more "unique" ones like the maple peanut out of
the 12 types that are available. It took a while to taste all of them, but here's the verdict - my fav is the Red Island, which is a twist to the Thousand Island sauce that most of us would be familiar with by adding in tomato puree. The concept of The Lawn is definitely giving the other salad bars a run for their money. I guess The Lawn has proven that eating healthy doesn't equate to boring and tasteless greens, tasty grills can be part of the menu too!
