Unlike what its name suggests, this cosy vegan shop along South Bridge Road serves more than just salads. Signature salad bowls like their Well Dressed Green Goddess ($9.50) are great if you want to load up on fresh veggies, but the menu also includes heartier choices like sandwiches and wraps (from $6.50). What the Burpple community often heads here for however are the vegan cakes, served by the slice. Made without eggs and dairy, these cakes are usually on the denser side, and are not too sweet. Choice bakes include the delicate French Rose Vanilla Cake ($4) and the earthy Green Tea Matcha Cake ($3.50). One of their coveted slices has to be the Matcha Gao Gao Cake ($7.50), which really packs in the green tea flavour. Burppler Natalie Wong describes it to as "a huge slice of vegan matcha flavoured cake sandwiched and adorned with matcha cream", topped off with fudgy matcha white chocolate brownie crumbles. It's a special bake that's not always on the menu. They usually post an announcement on their Instagram page (@welldressedsaladbarsg) when it's available, so stalk them if you must.
Avg Price: $15 per person

😅 Thanks @welldressedsaladbarsg for the reservation 🙂. A huge slice of vegan matcha flavoured cake sandwiched and adorned with matcha cream, topped off with matcha crumbles. The matcha crumbles are actually the matcha white chocolate brownie in disguise, which is fudgy and sufficiently moist, with a distinctive earthy note. The matcha cake was dense and resembled more of a pound cake, which I would have preferred it to be softer and more fluffy instead. Nevertheless, I love how the matcha flavour was distinctive with a characteristic subtle bitter undertone. The matcha cream was creamy and smooth, though a tad too rich and buttery for me. The main highlight overall to me were the matcha "crumbles"!! 💚💚 .
