TGS featured in Art Jam & The Executive
Recently we also got featured in Art Jam, it is NTU’s cultural club magazine. Click here for the scanned article, or pop by and grab yourself a copy of Art Jam - plenty of other interesting stuff in there too!
The other article dates way back (September 2007 actually.. Procrastinators ‘r’ Us), it’s a 2-page interview article under the “Novice” section for The Executive’s The Service Issue. The title of “Novice” is quite apt - because we were barely one year into the business then. Even till today, we still feel like novices in many ways. We have learned a tonne of stuff along the way but it wouldn’t be right to call ourselves masters of anything yet. We still see ourselves as students, and it can be extremely trying at times but learning can also be fun! We’re not resting on our laurels though, we still have quite a few tricks up our sleeves for The Garden Slug, so watch this space!
There should still be a copy or two of The Executive sitting around on the bookshelf, buried under a tonne of Her World and National Geographic. Scanned images are here and here.
Most of the pictures taken with any one of our humble phone cameras, except the lovely picture of the Egg Pasta - credit goes to Ernie Su. Thanks Ernie! And also a big thanks to Hazel Almeida (Art Jam) and Felicia Ng (The Executive) for taking the time to talk to us and write about us. xoxo




4 slugs got into our trusty ol’ van today and made our way to Face Bistro at Robinson Road
Face Bistro is located at 90 Robinson Road ( Tel 65382968), a really nicely -setup makeup and face spa that’s staffed by some really professional and friendly folks.. Face Bistro is owned by one of Singapore’s most well-known make up maestros, Miss Dily Wang.
Such a lovely lady, and very glam in person, I must say.. Check out their website at
The face spa was filled with so many congratulatory floral baskets, and most of them were from celebs that we know.. We saw baskets from David Gan, Patricia Mok and lots more. Wow, we think the Face Bistro folks are seriously connected, man! Unfortunately, we werent there to mingle with the cuties. I hope Deepa slug and Michael slug are not too disappointed, hehe :-0
We served mainly cocktail favourites like Sweet Melon,feta and olive… Strawberries coated with white chocolate, Bratwurst knobs and such. The food complemented the wine selection perfectly, we’re glad that the host and guests were happy with the colourful selection. ( The food had to be cling-wrapped as the party hasn’t started yet. Yup, the Face Bistro folks are professional hygienists through and through! )
“Kawa-ii neh!” We printed coloured traymats with Face Bistro’s logo on it, but of course, we couldn’t resist having our equally kawa-ii slug on it , hard-sell hard sell!! The trays went very well with Face Bistro’s stark white stylo-mylo decor, and looked like part of their shop. The Face Bistro folks seemed quite tickled by the trays. We were!



Melon with greek herbed feta and stuffed olive on a pick! Jon slug had so many of these, he lost count. Then again, he lost count of almost everything after his 3rd glass of chardonnay. hic* :-0

Norwegian smoked salmon on Pumpernickel, topped with lowfat cream cheese and fresh chives / Grilled German bratwurst sausage knobs topped with zucchini and fire-blistered cherry tomatoes. Check out the white trays in the background! Instead of serving the food on plates, we created some paper placemats with Oscar Wilde quotes and placed them on trays. For tongue-tied nerds, it worked in other ways too- it helped them to break the ice with potential cuties too. Nervous Nerd: “Erm, hi! Have you heard of the oscar wilde quote, ” blah …. ** cue: read from tray placemat** hehe >
And hey, what’s a party without some fabulous sweets right? Plump ripe Strawberries dipped in fine belgian white chocolate. A perfect foil to the “slim pickings” hehe.
