VIDEO: A LOOK AT DELIVEROO EDITIONS 2 AT LAVENDER

Food delivery service provider Deliveroo, which started operations here in late 2015, opened its second Deliveroo Editions site - a purpose-built central kitchen for partner restaurants that do not have a physical presence in the area - about two weeks ago.

Located at Lavender's CT Hub 2, it features seven restaurants, as well as a dine-in area.

ST Food has put together a guide on where to dine out if you want your dollar to go a little further.

Fancy restaurants often have great lunch deals that start at about $30 for three courses.

But if you want something simpler, we have that covered too - think ramen and dim sum with free-flow tea for $10.70.
