Didnât have any truffle taste and was a weird combination of cream, mushrooms and capsicum bits. For $16.90, i donât think i would order this again? Thank god for the Beyond deal, which was applicable for a wide range of dishes on the menu.
Head to Haji Lane for an authentic Turkish feast at this cozy restaurant! From Lamb Kofta ($24.90), Spinach Pide ($19.90) to classics such as Chicken Shawarma ($16) and Falafeel ($17.50) wraps, you'll be spoilt for choice. Take Burppler Shiba Yukari's lead and indulge in their Mix Grill Kebab ($44.90 for 2 Pax), which "tasted good, the lamb was well seasoned and not gamey."

Known for their spitfire chicken, Chico Loco was a Mexican-inspired bistro and bar along Amoy St! Headed over for their happy hour (before 7pm) and had the frozen margarita ($8), alongside the Half Chicken and Lamb Tacos! Shared the food amongst 2 and was just nice. Chicken was tender and flavorful, though the Lamb Tacos had a strong taste so if youâre not the biggest fan of mutton, you might want to order something else.
Had some kimbap cravings so we decided to try this out for the first time! Got the Original Kimbap, Kimbap and Spicy Chicken with Tteokbokki (total was about ~$30?)
The kimbaps were alright, nothing to shout about. But the Spicy Fried Chicken was pretty good! The fried tteokbokki was a nice touch to the dish đđ»
Used #BurppleBeyond and had their rice bowls for a quick lunch in City Hall. Service was quick and food was served warm, however the price of the rice bowls ($15.20 each for the Yakiniku Tender Beef and Teriyaki Salmon) was a tad steep for the portion size! Might not revisit if there wasnât 1-for-1. The salmon was slightly over cooked too, leaving a dry texture.
Head over during peak hours and youâll see snaking queues outside this cozy eatery! If itâs your first time here, definitely opt for the Three Bowls Set w Drink ($15) to get the full experience (Lu Rou Fan, Oyster Mee Sua, Chicken Rice). Personally I really love their Lu Rou Fan ($4.50 for ala carte, $8 for set) because itâs fragrant and tastes just like Taiwan! From their menu, to the seating and decor, itâll have you reminiscing of the good old days in primary school too đ§đ»đ§đ»
Found this hidden gem on SG Food on Foot blog and can confirm that this was one of the best Soy Sauce Chicken Iâve had! Never used to be a fan and this humble stall in Telok Blangah Crescent totally converted me.
Affordable and delicious, we ordered Half Chicken ($7) and two plates of noodle ($1 each) which only amounted to $9? The chicken was tender and just the right amount of saltiness đđ» The noodle was my favourite, QQ and packed with flavor from the chili and sauces! đŻ
Had cravings for green curry (not pictured) and headed back to my old TP after school haunt for some affordable thai food! One of the best dishes would be the Pad Thai ($7?) and Red Tom Yum Soup (if thatâs your jam because we realised we prefer the clear version over the creamier red version)
The Green Curry Chicken was also very generous with their ingredients and was pretty good IMO đ
Would give the Pineapple Fried Rice ($6/7?) a miss though! Lacking in any flavour and barely had pineapple in it. Would skip on their Basil Pork too as it was a tad too salty and lacked the basil punch...
Iâve never had Pate before so Iâm not sure how this is supposed to taste like but it was pretty good! The taste was akin to our âluncheon meatâ, and the baguette and picked gherkins served alongside definitely helped to balance out the saltiness đđ» the Pate portion size was decent for two people as well
Went to LâEntrecĂŽte for my birthday dinner and had the best steak + fries! Ordered the Trimmed EntrecĂŽte Steak ($36.80) and it was so tender! Especially liked the âlegendary secret sauceâ which was creamy, peppery with some citrusy notes. The steak came precut so it was easy to devour too (lol)
Iâm a sucker for shoe string fries so free flow fries fried to crispy perfection and served hot? Thatâs a win for me! It was very nice of them to offer us birthday complimentary glasses of champagne and white wine infused with berry as well.
Used #BurppleBeyond for the Chicken Bean Paste La Mian (Lrg) Set which came with a H U G E portion of noodles and a side of potato salad đ Tbh super worth it for the portion size ($14.90 total?)
Chose the thin noodles, which was cooked to al dente perfection, and went well with the salty chicken bean paste sauce! Came with shredded cucumberđ„, which helped to counter the saltiness of the sauce. Would definitely add on extra chilli because it wasnât as spicy as I expected.
The potato salad was crunchy and pickled (I think)? Great palate cleanser in between bites of noods đ„ą
Have been wanting to try Lâeclair Patisserie so definitely glad they are on #BurppleBeyond đđ» Aside from being aesthetically pleasing to look at, they had up to 10 or more varieties of eclair flavors to choose from. Ranging from classic Dark Chocolate to localized flavours Kaya Pandan and specialty Isaphan!
Iâm not a huge fan of eclairs so paying $16.80 for 4 artisanal eclairs (after the deal), it was super worth it IMO đŻ
In order from left to right:
Dark Chocolate: 8/10 - Good balance of bittersweet chocolate
Isaphan: 8/10 - Lychee flavour was the strongest and was refreshing
Pistachio: 7/10 - The pistachio flavour wasnât as strong as I liked (but apparently everyone else said it was strong so....)
Lavender Chocolate: 6/10 - tbh my least fav but because the earl grey taste was too overpowering that I couldnât taste anything else. If youâre a huge fan of earl grey, this is the eclair for you
