A student-run café at the National University of Singapore, Munchie Monkey serves decent food at reasonable prices. The café is on the third floor of Yusoff Ishak House.
Its menu includes various soups, salads, pastas, pizzas, sandwiches, as well as starters like wedges and onion rings. I recently tried its cakes, and the chocolate truffle is wonderfully chocolatey!

Yunnan Garden Restaurant
Today, I went with my colleagues to Yunnan Garden Restaurant for lunch. This restaurant is located on the 5th floor of the IMM building.
As usual, whenever we go out for lunch, my colleagues have to make sure there is vegetarian food. They have been really good at that. This time, there were 21 of us, so we had 2 tables and the omnivores had the set lunch -> an 8-course meal that looked pretty good!
Me? Ah, I wasn't forgotten. The restaurant also catered a 6-course vegetarian menu for me. It was quite good! I had
What is nice is that there wasn't too much of the mock-stuff!

- soup with bamboo pith
- tofu on a bed of greens
- (goodness, I can't remember what I ate now!)
- wrap of po-piah vegetables in lor-bak skin
- ee-fu noodles
- mango pudding

Rangooli
Rangooli is an Indian restaurant at Pasir Panjang Village. Though the place is small, the food is good and reasonably priced.
Earlier this year, it also started operating a stall at "Best Bites", a food center in Science Park I. That totally makes up for the crappy choices at lunch in Science Park I. Recently I noticed that Rangooli has also taken over operation of the "Western Food" stall next to it. It must be doing well - good for them! :-)

Sakae Sushi
We met our cousin at the airport last weekend when she was on a 4-hour stop-over. We had lunch at Sakae Sushi...
Sakae Sushi now has a vegetarian menu! Generally, I would not be so inclined to go to Japanese food, as the vegetarian choices are not exactly so exciting. However, we thought we'd give it a try this time.
It was actually much more pleasant than I'd expected. The sushi belt had the same boring stuff, but the set meal was actually not too bad. There was also several other items on the menu which looked good but we did not try. The meal, though had lots of mushrooms - which my DH avoids, so I got to have most of the fungus.
Overall, I wouldn't mind going there again!
