In pictures: mountain yam rosti and curry egg benedicts. Impressive decor that made me feel like I am in a mini garden. While the food was nice, I am not sure if u'd pay this amt for a gluten-free meal. Nevertheless, happy to catch up with the group ☺️ till the next time... #burrple #burpplesg #saturdaybrunch #tiongbahru

[Open Door Policy] Lamb Curry Scotch Egg, S$28. Good curry flavour with the egg yolk cooked (runny) just right. 😋

Gluten-free & Dairy-Free Quite impressed with their menu. I think their offerrings are more interesting and inventive than most cafes, which is commendable given that everything gluten free and dairy free. We had the King Crab Benedict and Mountain Yam Rosti. Both lovely. I actually distinctly remember enjoying the gluten free bread that came with the benedict. It had a nice chewiness to it, and was great for mopping up the hollandaise and egg yolk.

Truffle Ramen (Dry) Signature Truffle Ramen (Dry) ($16.90) I didn't know what I should be order for lunch so I decided to try it out since I saw the article about this ramen store at orchard gateway. I would like to say that it's quite unique and special on that time when they introduced the ramen back on 2016 ? tbh orchard got too much food choice for overrated or even underrated but sometimes I didn't know what I should eat it already since today is my last day at matchalax. I'm not saying that it's not disappointed or expected on the dry truffle ramen but I felt that noodles was slightly dry and hard to chew through and also not much truffle taste? But it's not that creamy and milky texture as I expected that I did managed to eat ramen finish. I did like their charshu also in terms of thickness level and also soft texture.

kanshoku truffle ramen😋😋‼️‼️‼️ 🍜truffle ramen ($16.90) nice nutty truffle ramen with earthy flavours. they did nOT scrimp on those truffle slices. maybe that’s why there’s only 2 slices of char siu </3 HAHAH jokes. noodles are nice and springy !! neither too soft nor too al dente (like some places give rock hard noodles rip…). my friends and i agree that it’s almost reminiscent of angel hair pasta?? highlight is def the mellow creamy onsen egg which brings the flavours together. plus the truffle slices. lots of umami followed by what i believe is konbu sprinkles??? the char siu is p okayyy maybe 8/10 tastes like regular charsiu in ramen, a tad tender but not SUPER juicy. LOL but yo do yourself a favor and try this when you don’t know what to eat in orchard😋😋😌🤝

Black Garlic Ramen (+Egg) | $14.90 (+$2) This black garlic ramen was disappointing because of how bland the tonkotsu broth was. It also lacked the garlic punch I was looking for. You could add a ramen egg for $2, which I did. Despite the great texture of the egg, it unfortunately did not have much flavour. The quality and texture of Chashu was great though. Rate:🌟🌟

Best Ajitama Went there on a weekday for dinner and there was only one person cleaning, setting, serving and manning the cashier. So poor thing but service was slow :'> I had their signature ramen and noodles are good if you like them al dente. Meat is thin and soft, good ratio of fat and lean. Soup was decent and the ajitama is the best. I am a hugeeee ramen fan and I think I've never eaten a flavoured egg that made an impression. I mean, they were mostly just soft gooey goodness but this is REAL good. I don't even know why. I will definitely return to Kanshoku for ramen again! 😚

Truffle Ramen Truffle Ramen ($16.90++) Hakata style noodles tossed in truffle oil, Shio kombu, topped with black truffle shavings and two slices of marinated charshu.

Fragrant, But Tough Meat Strong truffle scent & taste, great onsen egg. Char Siew was ordinary & on the dry side. Debatable whether I'd order this again.

Laurent Bernard @ Portsdown The place is rather isolated on its own, located along Portsdown Road. Had dinner there and their signature drinks is good! Love the refreshing taste which is not too sweet. Good for a place to relax

A Quiet Retreat And Date Spot :) Getting my fix of restaurant week on the last day, taking a trip to the outskirts of Portsdown Road to check out Laurent Cafe. Laurent is a chocolatier and their shop in Portsdown branches out as a French Cafe. Their set menu for restaurant week comes with a 3 course meal going at $25++, and here we have the Duck Leg Confit with Roasted Potatoes and Onion jus. The duck leg was soft and tender, and the taste of the duck was able to shine with light seasoning. However, my only gripe was that it was slightly bloody at the bone. The entire meal was very filling for one person as there was an appetizer (salad or lobster bisque) and a dessert (strawberry ice cream meringue) so overall it was a really affordable and pleasant lunch set. P.S. The hot chocolate here is really good and gao!! Heartiness (portion): 5/5 Tastiness (product): 3/5 Worthiness (price): 4/5 Ambience: a nice retreat in the outskirts of Portsdown amongst Wessex Estate, with colonial architecture and design. A lovely place to chill out and have a nice date, especially at night :)

Laurent Bernard Chocolatier featured here is pure, one of their best sellers. rich, smooth and not too bitter for dark chocolate. slightly pricey, but i would probably come back to treat myself to other cakes once in a while. they serve up main courses too!

Xiao Ya Tou We had the truffle roasted duck, mala fish, brussel sprouts and lobster pai tee. All of them were not bad but quite overpriced IMO. The lobster pai tee was the best dish out of the 4 with a generous amount of lobster, slathered in rich mayo and topped with ikura. Truffle roasted duck was not subtle with the truffle which I appreciated. The mala fish was average, while the brussel sprouts was a bit too sweet with Thai chili sauce-like taste.

Chic & Old School! Lobster Kueh Pie Tee is sure to amaze you with the freshness of the lobster and roes!

Mala Fish $31 Fish with lotus roots, glass noodles and others. Personally love mala and thought that this dish has a great mala flavour. Great dish to satisfy mala craving. My top 3 favourite dishes (3/3)

Great For Sharing Perfect among 2-4, Talay Thai's grilled seafood platter comes with quite a variety of seafood. It's star attraction is definitely the grilled oyster with homemade sauce. The grilling process removed the terrible 'oyster smell' but still kept the juiciness of the original oysters - perfect for the virgin oyster experience. Another thing I loved was the BBQ cuttlefish that was so smoky, so chewy yet soft enough to break!

The late night makes me crave for this Tom Yum Lobster Bisque ($14) served with Boston Lobster. Cooked and simmered for long hours with Boston Lobster shells, the bisque naturally takes on a strong umami flavour. And this was playfully complemented with Tom Yum spices, giving the soup a lovely lemongrass fragrance and a slight kick. More yummy goodness on my IG story, which will disappear in <12 hours' time! Thank you @juliuslim for the invitation and @creativeeateries for hosting! I had a great food coma inducing lunch 😍

An absolute stunner of a bisque. Against the hues of red neon, this Tom Yum Lobster Bisque ($14) shines bright like a diamond. Boiled for hours using lobster shells, the resulting tom yum bisque was one of aromatic and spicy with a slight tang. This entire dish paired with the grilled lobster tail lemongrass brochette definitely did not hold back any punches and delivered a knockout victory. • This was an invited tasting hosted by @creativeeateries • Talay Thai Address: 3E, River Valley Road, Traders' Market, Unit 01-05, Singapore 179024 #yoursingapore #visitsingapore #singapore #burppleSG #burpproved #buzzfeast #buzzfeedfood #Makansutra #restaurantsg #thaifood #talaythaisg #talaythai #creativeeateries #clarkequay #clarkequaysg #winedinegoodtimes

signature mondomio short pasta! doesn’t look like it but taste super cheesy!

Pappedelle Beef Ragu $28 - most expensive pasta on the menu but made half price with burpple :) generous amount of beef and the pappedelle is well done~

Delicious Pasta Deal was applicable for all pizza and pasta, except for pasta containing seafood. Was informed that we had to place our order before 7pm. Luckily we went early as the wait for the food was a little long especially with many customers coming in around 7pm on the weekend

Lovely ambience & meals The food here was great, but I enjoyed the setting best of all :) It's definitely one of the best cafes to sit down for a chill afternoon, or even study with a cup of coffee! When I was here it was almost completely empty, and the staff were friendly and polite. Located on the rooftop, there was a beautiful view out the windows and a neat little outdoor area as well! A pity that they will be changing location soon, as I've already fallen in love with this little out-of-the-way cafe. ☺️

👉Peranakan Specials👈 Here was what we ordered for lunch: Nyonya Assam Pedas Fish, Chicken Curry, Ladies Finger w Dried Shrimp Chili and Special Omelette. 。 Situated at the 11th floor of Pico creative centre, this is a humble café where you can enjoy great view and food at the same time. My favourite dish has got to be the ladies finger since its dried shrimp chili complemented my plate of rice really well. 。 P.S. You can enjoy 1-for-1 deals here using Burpple Beyond!

French Loaf 2.9+ Yeah nah this isn't the full portion lol there's 3 of these pieces. Didn't think it's gonna deserve a post on its own but boy was I wrong(thus the late picture with only 1 piece left). Crispy on the outside yet not too hard, and delightfully fluffy in the middle, it's the perfect vessel for the myriad of scrumptious sauces

Bought the 海底捞 麻辣 seasoning and did our version of 麻辣香锅. It's not so bad after all. @rainbowaffles #shiok #burpple #sgfood #instafood #mala

Fishball Noodle from Ding Ji Teochew Noodle The noodles at this outlet was slightly towards the drier side, but it remains just as savoury and spicy, that goes well alongside with the fishballs, fish dumpling and fishcakes.

New kid on the block. A new roast duck, char Siew and roast pork shop. Too bad that they run out of roast pork. #sgig #igsg #sgfood, #instasg #food #foodpics #foodporn #instafood #foodies #foodgasm #foodstagram #burpple #delicious #yummy #awesome #iglikes #tripadvisor #foodblogger #sgfoodie #sgfooddiary #openrice #hungrygowhere #igfood #sgfoodies #eatoutsg @eatdreamlove #eatdreamlove #roastduck #charsiew http://www.eatdreamlove.com

My Noodles with Double Roast I finally tried their noodle but its not bad tbh even I didn't opt out for another noodle variation ($13) tbh. Char Siew is tender enough with "fat" whereas lor bah skin really crispy and crunchy enough but the meats really tough to chew through. I really grateful that they don't have gst or service charge to cover up.

Bring little boss eat one of his fav noodle, @iwantmynoodle. We ordered my truffle oil noodle with minced pork (additional $3 for minced pork). Qiu Qiu noodle served with the truffle oil in the spoon, mushroom and egg. 💰$11.5 for noodle n additional $3 for minced pork. 📍I want my noodle. 1 scoot road, #03-14/15 #shootoniphone

My Truffle Oil Noodles | $10.90 Earthy and flavourful, perfecr with soft boiled egg. When it was served, the truffle aroma lingers in your nose. However after a few mouthful the truffle seem to dissipates. Egg noodles which was made from scratch was chewy, and had a nice al dente texture which I like. Wish there was some minced meat which could go along. Would come back for the noodle.
