👍🏻 From the mushy soft porridge to the yam rice to the tender duck. The winning material is really the sauce! There was a longgg 30mins wait though (apparently you can call in to reserve in advance. Anyone knows what's the number to call?)

Such braised duck rice reminds me of my childhood! There used to be a few braised duck rice stalls that I ate from as a kid. One was Hollywood braised duck rice, which used to be at the Haig road area behind the old lion city plaza hotel (they are now situated in Sims drive market). There used to be another shop along macpherson road (nearer to potong pasir side), probably in the 1994-1998. I still have vivid memories of dining there as a kid. Anyone knows the name of this stall and whether it is still around or where it has moved to? (Or was it this stall? Haha there are just too many similar brands around) #burpple #burpplesg #braisedduckrice #eastcoastlagoon #zuojiduckrice #作记duckrice
Every time I went to East Coast Langoon, I always craving for oysters omelette. Pair the dish with a Thai coconut water to ease the heatiness.
I would say this stall is well maintained as the owner quite aware of the cleanliness and they use a lil amount of starch to make an oyster omelette.
The edge is crisp and the oysters tasted fresh. However, I prefer starchy version of omelette and slightly bigger plump oysters to hit the shiokness!

The braised pork rice alone is worth a trip here. The Taiwanese sausage and the herbal pork ribs soup complimented it very well.
Really poor version of black carrot cake. Dry, with many prices burnt. Will avoid this place in the future.
Always a long, snaking queue in the mornings. The prata is however worth the wait: crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Worth traveling cross island for!
The food line and pace may seem Subway-esque, but you step into A Poke Theory and you'll be getting the freshest, the tastiest and the best produce. From sizable chunks of premium sashimi-grade fish, healthy toppings like kale chips, housemade spiced cashews, to the sweetest Persian pomegranate — step aside salad bars, this may be just the place to head to for a truly healthy and quick lunch. Of the four 🐠 options, my fave's the Spicy Sesame Tuna. It packs just the right amount of punch to stay refreshing and discernible amidst all the other ingredients. Those who like something milder and creamier, yet no less tastier, may enjoy the Avocado Miso Salmon.
Owner Ryan Tan is the current World Siphon Champion and a three-time Singapore Barista Champion, so your coffee is in good hands. If you like your coffee clean-tasting with pronounced flavours, go for the Siphon Coffee ($6.90), brewed with seasonal beans. For an espresso-based coffee, try Magic ($5.50). More robust than most milk-based coffee beverages, this is said to be made using the perfect milk to espresso ration.
Having moved from West Coast to a more spacious lot at Sunset Way, swing by The Tiny Roaster and sit at their alfresco area on a cool day — it's great for catching up with your friends or family over a cup of Iced White Brew ($5). It is served in a uniquely-shaped triangular cup with an added espresso ice sphere to cool, not dilute, your coffee. For those looking to learn and appreciate coffee, sit by the coffee bar and bask in the beauty of gorgeous coffee brewing equipment as you watch the baristas hand brew a cup of coffee (from $6) for you. There are roasted and unroasted beans sold here too, alongside filters and drippers.
From the good folks of Ronin, PUNCH has gained itself a reputation for their gorgeous courtyard and excellent coffee. Their filtered Batch Brew ($4.50) is brewed using a blend of Ethiopian beans, and is the perfect java fix to start the day with. Located just across from Hong Lim Park, swing by in the mornings and perch yourself on one of their wooden benches among the courtyard greenery. If you can spare more time, enjoy a simple breakfast of Poached Eggs With Smashed Avocado on Sourdough ($13).
Specially woke up early on Sunday and dragged my partner out of bed to try this famous bak chor mee. The last time I was there, I queued for 20 mins before I gave up as lunch time is just too short. When we reached (about 10.30am), there was already a queue though shorter and after 15 mins, we got our noodles. I ordered the $6 while she had the $5. The qq noodles were accompanied by meatballs, pork liver, minced meat, wantons, tender pork slices and a piece of fried fish. One of the more worth it bak chor mee around :)
Man, these Burpple Tastemakers... I LOVE THEM 😂
This beautiful mess right after a tasting. Doesn't get any better than this.
Rice, assorted fried bits and whatnots and soft boiled cabbage all slathered in that signature combination of curry, liu zhi and chili sauce. And best of all, the great company!
Good suppers are made of these. Just sayin'
