With the
success of its first outlet in Biopolis, “Meat Your Greens” team
decided to bring the concept to the heart of the Central Business
District in Singapore. What a better place to cater to the busy but
health conscious Singaporean other than in Shenton Way.
In case
that you are curious on the concept of The Lawn at Biopolis, you can
click here for the review.
Located on
the food section of Basement 1 of AXA Tower, The Lawn is not hard to
find. The décor is simple, neat and look huge with long salad bar
for your to choose your toppings. The full size glass wall allow the
passerby to see what's on offer in the restaurant. The grill are
placed at the and with good air circulation you won't come out
smelling like your food.

- Choose Base: Salad or Olive Rice (for those that need their carbohydrate)
- Choose your Grill (protein: such as chicken, prawn, dory fish, duck, beef or even vegetables)
- For Salad Box, Choose your toppings & dressings, you have 26 type toppings (such as vegetables, fruits, pasta, nuts, cheese, etc) and 9 types of dressing options. For Olive rice, you have a standard side salad with no dressing.
The first thing that I noticed
when they serve the salad bowl is the size. Lets just say it is 25%
bigger than the size in Biopolis. Base on their past experience, the
team has created three Chef's pick of top salad combination: Sweet &
Chick, Hunky Dory and Crunches with Munches.

I personally like to choose my
own salad and toppings. My top pick from the grill is Butter Seared Pacific Dory with parsley rub. It is tender and juicy , the portion
of the dory is very generous, while the parsley rub helps to remove
any fishy smell in the dory. The prawns are another seafood option,
it is fresh and juicy, however I don't think the portion deliver a
good value for money compare to fish.

For those who prefer chicken,
you can have the selection of chicken breast or chicken thigh. For
something sweet, try their maple infusion. For TexMex flair, go with
the cajun chicken. I will personally choose the chicken thigh, as it
is more juicy and tender.

The major improvement that I
like about The Lawn in Shenton Way is their coffee machine. They
decided to get serious and invest a bit more on their coffee machine
to accompany the beans from Smitten. The outcome is a consistent,
smooth and creamy cup of coffee that won't disappoint you.

To end the meal, or if you want
to have some to satisfy your sweet tooth, the cakes are from Gobi
while their tiramisu is from The Tiramisu Hero. The chocolate cake
and green tea get my thumbs up where both are light in texture with a
nice balance in flavour.

The service is minimum. The
order process goes like this, Chop your seat (Yes, we are very
Singaporean), take your order sheet, tick your selections and go to
the counter to pay. The food will then be delivered to you. Price
starting at $8.90 for Olive Rice and $9.90 for Salad. For grill
Chicken / vegetables +$3, Fish / Duck / Prawns +$4 and Beef +$5.
Overall, The Lawn has bring the
“Meat Your Greens” concept for those health conscious people in
Shenton Way. The price is not cheap, but it is reasonable. With the
quality of the food here, I believe it will satisfy your cravings for
good food and watching your figure at the same time. Cheers!!
Thanks to Jonathan and The Lawn team for the invitation.
