For carb-conscious individuals specifically the office workers at Tanjong Pagar, there are no lack of salad choices. But one to add to the growing list is definitely Kipos Gourmet. A standard $10 serving there gets you a choice of two base, five greens, one dressing, one ‘Lux it up” topping and three crunch. If you need your protein, they come at an extra charge except for tofu. One of the more expensive options, my favourite was none other than the Aburi Salmon Mentaiko (+$5). Flaky, fresh and slathered on with rich cod roe, the slab was well-worth the cost as the resulting textures were melty soft. My other recommended pick would the Coconut Chicken (+$3); it offering a nice crunch and seasoned perfectly. Clearly not your usual boring salads, they also serve dressings such as Truffle Shoyu, Apple Cider Yuzu and Wasabi Ponzu. Having the foolproof truffle dressing, the flavours were nicely infused into the tossed greens and really amped up the bowl with its aromatic punch.

Hence, those of you watching your waistlines can look forward to their second outlet at One Raffles Place. Scheduled to open in the end of April, the store would be carrying probiotic beers that are great for the immunity and gut.

A big thank you to @kiposgourmet for the warm hospitality!
