Taking over the defunct Late Plate in NUS Shaw Foundation Alumni House, Waa Cow! may just be reason enough to go to school. The Japanese-inspired menu features both rice bowls and small bites — perfect for lunch or a snack during those long breaks between tutorials. With thin strips of pink wagyu beef on a bed of lightly charred rice, the Wagyu Don ($17.90) is delicious and value for money; or tame the munchies with the the crispy and flavourful Soy Glazed Wings ($8.90). There are plans to roll out a dinner menu, but till then, the cafe opens only from 11:30am to 3pm. Go early as the bowls run out quickly!
