Office Workers Can Eat ‘Atas’ For Cheaper With This New Delivery App

Lunch breaks can feel like a chore especially if there is not a variety of food options around your office area. Trust us, we’re damn sian of the food in our office area already.

If you feel the same way as us, then fret not. There’s a brand new app in town that will make you look forward to having lunch everyday.

Best part, there’s no delivery charges and no minimum orders!

The Modern Tingkat

Plum is a food curation company that is about to revolutionise the way we think of lunch.

Instead of the traditional food delivery apps that we are used to, Plum curates an entire menu every day so you no longer have to spend time looking, buying and waiting for your next lunch.

Plum’s restaurant curation team managed to scour over 6,000 restaurants in Singapore so you have the option of gourmet meals at insider prices.

There’s even halal and vegetarian meals available everyday so everyone has an option on the Plum app.

Their menu changes daily so be sure to check out the Plum app every day!

But there’s a catch, Plum currently only delivers to certain pick-up points and is not available island wide yet.

Current pick-up locations include Fusionopolis, Metropolis, Biopolis, Mediapolis, Raffles Place, One George Street, Ocean Financial Centre, Marina Bay Financial Centre, and soon, Tanjong Pagar.

So not all of us are able to enjoy this amazing service yet. For those that are working near these pick-up points, hop on over to the app and check out their menu.

All you have to do is sign up for an account,

choose from the daily curated menu,

and proceed to pay!

Do note that there is a cut off time for orders so you might want to pre-order your lunch by 10.30am to secure your first choice.

First time users can use their promo code “WOWPLUM” and get 50% off their first meal purchase.

In 9-to-5 environments, lunch breaks isn’t always such a big deal, but making time for a healthy lunch can pay off both mentally and physically.

Here’s to hoping that Plum expands and offers more pick up points islandwide!

This S’pore-Made Lightsaber Will Fulfil Every Geek’s Fantasy Of Being A Jedi

For true-blue Jedis, owning a lightsaber is a mark of training and honour.

I’ve always dreamt of being a Jedi Knight but there’s just one problem – you can’t get legit lightsabers in Singapore.

You only have the option of the plastic lightsabers from Toys R Us or you end up buying a lightsaber from the US which can get pretty expensive.

However, this dream of mine is about to become a reality thanks to Singapore company SaberMach, that specialises in high quality combat illuminated sabers.

The Force Is Strong With This One

SaberMach is a Singapore brand focused on building high quality sabers for Star Wars enthusiasts.

Started by two budget-conscious Singaporean Star Wars fan who could not afford lightsabers from the United States when they were in their teens, they joined forces to create the most badass sabers we’ve seen to date.

Unlike the licensed replicas found in toyshops, SaberMach lightsabers are manufactured in-house and made for one purpose – combat duelling.

This means that you can pretty much fight with these lightsabers but your body parts won’t get sliced off!

The Sabers

For the lightsaber fanatics, the Master Series sabers ($759) is the ultimate choice for the complete saber experience.

There are 7 hilts available from the Master series. I gotta say, they look pretty badass to me.

The Master Series saber provides up to 16 different LED colours in a single saber hilt and a flash-on-clash effect which is a flash of any color of light when your saber impacts on your opponent’s saber.

Best part, if you’re a collector, your saber comes with an acrylic casing for you to display your amazing hilts.

If you’re looking for a saber that’s more suited for combat duelling, SaberMach came up with a Sportz MACH model ($549) which is meticulously handcrafted for faultless precision handling.

Designed with serious combat in mind, its lightweight and sleek chassis is perfect for speed and accuracy.

Fans can also choose to personalise their sabers by engraving their names or logos onto it.

If you’re looking for a one of a kind lightsaber. SaberMach has expanded their services and is now taking custom 1 of a kind saber commissions.

The custom sabers will come with the quality of their standard SaberMach products together with the electronic chassis system found in their premium sabers.

Just as a Jedi knight builds his or her own lightsaber by hand, every single SaberMach saber is hand-crafted from an anodized aluminum tube at Sabermach’s factory in Singapore.

Owning a lightsaber has always been every geek’s lifelong dream and I can’t wait to get my hands on their creations!

These Steamboat Spots In S’pore Confirm Will Make You Steaaammm

Hai Di Lao is arguably the most popular steamboat spot in Singapore. They’ve been drawing crowds with their insanely good tomato broths and noodle-bending staff.

However, while Hai Di Lao is great, I refuse to wait over an hour just for a table. Especially when I’m hungry. Here’s a list of great alternatives to satisfy that steamboat craving.

1. JPOT

JPOT only offers individual hotpots, which is great because I’m picky when it comes to the ingredients that goes into my hotpot.

They offer a wide variety of ingredients and 9 different soup bases. My personal favourites are the Tom Yum Soup and the JPOT Superior Broth.

The other unique soup bases include the Laksa, Chilli Crab Soup, Bak Kut Teh Soup, Fish Head Soup and Porridge. Yes, that’s right. You can choose to cook your ingredients in a pot of porridge.

You have to order their Wagyu Ribeye, Handmade Jumbo Pork Ball, and their Handmade Fish Balls. The marbling on the Wagyu Ribeye is perfect and is so tender it barely holds its form on my chopsticks.

The Handmade Fish Balls come in a platter of 6 and are different from the conventional fishballs. The fishballs are made fresh and you can actually taste the fish instead of just a generic fish paste. One platter is never enough.

You can view their complete menu here.

That’s not all, with 16 sauces and condiments available, you can create your own dips for your hotpot experience.

JPOT is the place to go if you’re looking for a genuinely good and fuss-free steamboat meal.

Shi Li Fang is one of the few affordable steamboat places in Singapore.

They have a good variety of broths available. Choose from their Tonic Chicken Soup, Specialty Mala Soup, Beauty Chicken Collagen Soup, Nourishing Fish Soup, Ravishing Tomato Soup, and Tasty Mushroom Soup.

Their Specialty Mala Soup is actually milder and drinkable, unlike Hai Di Lao’s intense Mala broth.

Be sure to order their Japanese Kurobuta Pork, Japanese Wagyu Beef, and their Fish Roe ‘Glue’. The quality of the meat is surprisingly decent and the Fish Roe ‘Glue’ is a paste that has been incorporated generously with Fish Roe.

Shi Li Fang is one of the best and most wallet-friendly steamboat places to chill and catch up with your friends.

There’s the Herbal Drunk Chicken Broth, Cooling Coconut Broth, Longevity Wild Pine Mushroom Broth, and the Vitamin C Tomato Sweet Corn Broth.

All-you-can-eat buffets are great but you know what’s better?

A buffet that indulges your need for variety, and at the same time, gives you a new look while giving back to the community.

Carousell is organising a clothes buffet next weekend, so instead of stuffing your tummy, stuff a bag for charity!

Revamp Your Wardrobe

From 28 April onwards, Carousell will be rolling out trusted meet-up spots, all centrally located within Frasers Property malls, to make it even easier and safer to buy, sell and connect.

Face Your Fears This Friday The 13th At Science Centre’s New Exhibition

Does the thought of drowning scare you?

What about being buried alive?

Face your fears at this brand new exhibition that explores the science behind fear.

Rationalise and conquer your fears at Phobia²: The Science of Fear from 13th April onwards.

Clowns, Coffins And Claustrophobia

Guests will embark on a journey about common fears and phobias as well as self-discovery. So if you’re planning on overcoming your fears, we suggest you bring a friend with you.

[caption id="attachment_33963" align="aligncenter" width="280"] GIF Credit: giphy.com[/caption]

This exhibition is designed to stimulate guests with a low-level anxiety experience so you don’t have to worry about any clowns jumping on you or being trapped in a tiny box.

We went through it and survived to tell the tale. We promise you, it’s 100% safe.

Designed by Newman Entertainment International (NEI), the exhibition features all sorts of interactive galleries for guests to gain a better understanding about fear.

Here are the galleries we highly recommend!

Buried Alive

[caption id="attachment_33952" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] Buried Alive Gallery[/caption]

Have you ever had a dream where you’re being buried alive and you scream but no one ever hears you?

Taphophobia is the fear of being buried alive. So if you ever want to know how it feels like to be buried alive, all you have to do is slide under the coffin and see it for yourself.

We got to try it out ourselves, safe to say, we don’t ever want to face that situation ever again.

Sideshow Carnival

We all hate clowns. Nobody likes clowns.

Needless to say, this clown gallery scared the living daylights out of us.

[caption id="attachment_33959" align="aligncenter" width="480"] Sideshow Carnival Gallery[/caption]

You can expect to enter a space which is decorated like a side-show carnival. This room contains various sculptures, a life sized comical clown and interactive displays.

This was hands down the freakiest gallery in the entire exhibition.

We could barely last more than 5 minutes in this room.

Claustrophobia

[caption id="attachment_33960" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] Claustrophobia Gallery[/caption]

Claustrophobia is the fear of enclosed spaces and boy oh boy, this particular one felt like there was no way out.

As you walk into this tunnel, it becomes smaller so you are required to stoop down and squeeze out into a small winding tunnel to exit.

The exit was so small that we had to get down on our hands and legs just to be able to get out.

Do remember that you can bypass this experience by taking a ‘Chicken Out’ door.

The Stage Is Yours

[caption id="attachment_33961" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] The Stage Is Yours Gallery[/caption]

Have you ever given a speech in school or work that made your palms sweaty and your knees go weak?

Speaking in front of a crowd may come naturally for some but a nightmare for others.

The exhibit offers guests the opportunity to stand in front of a projection dome. You are to read out loud from a teleprompter to a projected audience who will then react in real-time to the comments made in the speech.

We couldn’t help but feel slightly insecure when the crowd started laughing mid-speech but don’t worry, they’ll give you a standing ovation at the end.

Give this one a try if you haven’t tried speaking in front of a crowd.

Sitting For An Exam

[caption id="attachment_33962" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] Sitting For An Exam Gallery[/caption]

Studying for an exam is pretty nerve wrecking, especially when your final grades depend on it.

Enter a room with study desks that contain TV panels built within the desk tops.

Through the TV panels, students will share their experiences on exam fears and provide tips on how to overcome them.

If you know someone who fears sitting for an exam, bring them here to learn tips and tricks on how to overcome their fears.

Phobia²: The Science of Fear is the perfect opportunity for you to conquer your fears. With over 14 galleries for you to choose from, this exhibition is truly educational and highly interactive.

Who knows, you might eventually face your fears this Friday the 13th.

Grab your friends, gather some courage and head on down to Science Centre for this exciting exhibition!

Phobia²: The Science of Fear
Price: Admission to the exhibition is free. Standard admission charges to the Science Centre applies.
