New in town: Teng Xpress – clean, light vegetarian tempura in CBD
When you're searching for places for lunch, how many vegetarian options are there? But don't worry, there's the newly opened Teng Xpress in The Heart, Marina One.
Teng Xpress is a concept store opened by Teng Bespoke Vegetarian Dining, founded in 2012. They focus on creating flavourful meals with little to no additives. Teng Xpress incorporates seasonal vegetables and vegetarian alternatives into their tempura for a fresh, light bite.
As it is a kiosk-style store, you can place your order via machines, which gives you more time to scroll through their extensive customisation options. Introverts rejoice (myself included)!
Teng Xpress's opening offers the Teriyaki Glaze Set Menu (S$9.90). It comes with cold buckwheat noodles, a choice of 4 tempura items and a bowl of miso soup. For the CBD area, I'd say this is worth the price.
The tempura ingredients vary from mock prawn (or ebi) to enoki mushrooms, asparagus, eggplant and more. Since they will bring in seasonal produce, I'm excited to see new menu items pop up throughout the year.
Apart from mains, Teng Xpress also offers snacks such as youtiao and tau huay. As they are available from 8am, you can get these for a light breakfast or a midday snack. Who could say no to youtiao that's crispy on the outside and fluffy inside, eaten with silky tau huay?
Note that there is no seating area within the store itself as it's a 'pick-and-go' sort of place. A small price for a quick and easy meal, I suppose. If you need to sit, though, there are seating areas around the mall you can use.
Within walking distance from Downtown, Shenton Way and Marina Bay MRT stations, Teng Xpress's opening provides an accessible and affordable vegetarian option. If you have yet to decide on what to eat today, why not drop by?

11 Practical Father's Day Gifts
Father's Day is nigh, so it's time for the annual late spring PSA: Dads are notoriously hard to shop for. Maybe it's the constant refrain of 'don't worry about me, I don't need anything.' Maybe you don't want to watch another present you thought long and hard about makes its way into the dusty graveyard of unused gifts. Or maybe his cupboard simply cannot fit another version of the requisite 'World's Greatest Dad' mug. Whatever the reason, it can pretty much knock the wind out of your gift-giving don't worry, all hope is not lost — there are a few things to buy for Dad that he'll actually use. And rather than spend the countdown to Father's Day agonizing over how to prove this statement true, you can just peruse our our list below, you'll find giftable versions of practical, downright necessary items, at least one of which your father won't be able to turn down. Even better: you can get all of them quickly and easily, because they all come from Target. So read on, and give yourself one less thing to worry about between now and Sunday, June 15. If his gym bag has seen better days And speaking of gym rats, if Dad does hit the gym regularly, there's a good chance his gym bag has seen better days (they can get stinky and ratty pretty quick). Upgrade him with this incredibly durable, subtly chic, and surprisingly affordable 21.5-inch duffle. It'll fit his workout and shower gear with room to spare, and he can even wear it as a backpack when his hands are $29.99 If he moves his body at all Everyone loves (and most likely needs) a massage — including the dad who doesn't normally go for that kind of thing. So if he doesn't have a Theragun, get him one. It's the simplest route to some necessary muscle relaxation. Price: $319.99 If he's a suit-and-tie guy Dads with dressier wardrobes may not need a new gym bag, but they're bound to appreciate a good garment bag or (if they already have one) two. This 5-stars-only option from Target's Open Story private label has a large main compartment, two smaller zippered pockets for smaller items, and built-in luggage strap. Price: $24.99 If he's a music man For dads who love music, this all-in-one sound system will definitely see some action. In addition to the three-speed turntable and bookshelf speakers, it also has bluetooth connectivity that'll let him stream music from any compatible device, and manual outputs that connect to existing stereo $139.99 If he likes a close shave Upgrade Dad's shaving game with this dermatologist-tested shaving kit. It comes with a safety razor, beard-lifting shaving brush, replacement blades, pre-shave oil, shaving cream, and a post-shave balm. The combination of a quality equipment and moisturizing, non-comedogenic ingredients promises to prevent razor bumps, reduce skin irritation, and, when used regularly, make skin softer and smoother overall. Price: $89.99 If he's looking far ahead Whether he's into hiking, birding, stargazing, or just spying on the neighbors, a decent pair of binoculars will definitely come in handy. This pair provides an ultra-high definition view. They're also designed to be lightweight and extremely $169.99 If his camping chair is on its last legs Camping, tailgating, sitting on the sidelines at a middle school soccer game — a plain old camping chair is fine, but this portable, full-size rocking chair with a cozy sling seat is definitely better. It's also very highly $90 (available in two colors) If he's loves a great cup of coffee If Dad downs java like it's his job, there's really no excuse for not having a Bialetti Moka stovetop espresso maker. It's simple (analog and easy-to-clean), affordable and cost-effective (no filters or pods to buy), and makes a smooth — and strong — Italian-style cup in less than 5 minutes. Price: $39.99 (originally $44.99) If he cooks… pretty much anything Even if Dad's only dish is scrambled eggs, he should be doing it in a Lodge cast iron. This best-in-class skillet is naturally non-stick; can be used on a grill, in the oven, or on a stovetop; and, if you care for it properly, will last foreverPrice: $29.90 If he's into… pretty much anything It's pricy, but even diehard Luddite dads will find it hard to deny the universal appeal of an iPad. It's also a great gift if he already has one but hasn't upgraded in a few $299.99+ (originally $349.99+; available in three sizes and four colors) If he's running low on staples 'Boring' items can sometimes make the best gifts. These totally un-fancy crew socks and 4-pack of plain white tees pictured from Target house brand Goodfellow may seem 11th-hour buys, but if Dad is a fan of these ubiquitous basics, they're actually quite thoughtful. Get the tees in sizes S–XXL and in black and the socks in black or $20 for the four-pack of tees and $10 for the six-pack of socks
