We ordered 2 mains here at Burn, and we both felt that they were overall not great. The portions were small as well. Though the pork belly was soft and tender, it carried a tangy sauce which wasn’t all that complimentary. The cous cous which accompanied the pork belly was a tad salty as well. The charcoal steak was tasty but not the most tender. All in all, I don’t think that we would be returning here and even less so without the 1-1 deal.

Starting off with the signature baos, we really enjoyed the Chilli Crab Bao. Mixed with the chilli crab chunks, the chilli crab sauce was done really well, and the mantou was perfectly deep fried. The Salted Egg Chicken Bao was served with a steamed bun instead and wasn’t nearly as impressive. The downside was that the portions were quite tiny. We were pleasantly surprised that aside from the baos, the Salmon Mentaiko Roll & Teriyaka Beef Steak Rice Bowl were pretty tasty. On the side note, I loved the minimalist interiors! Overall, the quality of the food was decent but prices are steep. If anything, I would return for the baos.

I’ve heard rather good reviews of this place that took over the space previously occupied by woodlands sourdough. I went with the House Ricotta Tartine ($12) even though I must admit I am not a huge fan of tomatoes. They served a generous amount of ricotta and tomatoes on the toast and everything went really well together. My friend got the Grilled Cheese toast ($12) and we loved the melted cheese. I was never a fan of alfresco seating in SG (the weather!!) but it was surprisingly cooling here. Overall, a nice place for brunch albeit the prices being a tad steep.

We were rather excited to check this cafe out coz we heard some good reviews, and we also loved its sister cafes. Although the location’s rather out of the way, the cafe was way crowded on a weekday afternoon, and it’ll be hard to get in without a reservation. We got the highly raved pear & pork tartine, which (almost) lived up to its hype. The breakfast burger was good but not fantastic. Of course, we had to order the coffee & we loved it!! I would definitely return for the coffee, and to try the other items on the menu as well.

Been hearing quite a bit about this place so we came to try their food on a weekend. The shakshuka eggs were decent but nothing spectacular, and the bread was rather disappointing. The candied bacon & pancake was interesting, however we agreed that the pancake could be fluffier. Overall, quaint little place made worth by the 1-for-1, would return if I’m in the area to try the other items.

I’ve loved Atlas‘ coffee for awhile now, ever since my friend introduced it to me. This time we finally had time for brunch and I was looking forward to ordering their previous signature items, but was sorely disappointed when the staff said they had changed up their menu slightly since the renovation. Nonetheless, the food was still pretty decent. Special mentions go to the rich and creamy carbonara and the pancakes (waiting time 20 mins or more). I would give the pesto pasta a pass. The truffle fries are good and portion was generous. My friends and I agreed that we’d want to try Atlas’ sister coffeehouses, including Apollo and Lunar Coffee Brewers.

This is my first time here and we really enjoyed our meal. We ordered the Kuay Pie Tee ($17) and Ngoh Hiang ($18) for starters. I especially loved the Kuay Pie Tee as the cup was perfectly crispy and the filling was tasty with the sweet sauce! Ordered a variety of Nyonya dishes to go with jasmine rice - Babi Pong Tay ($19), Beef Rendang ($25) and Chap Chye ($16). The standout for me was the Babi Pong Tay - the fatty pork belly went amazingly well with the bean paste. We also ordered the Chicken Curry with Roti Jala ($24) which was average. Special mention to the Dry Laksa ($25) which was flavourful & spicy. Ended off the meal with some desserts including cakes and ice-cream which were decent as well. The service & ambience was good. Would return again😊

Back here for the third time and the food is consistently good! I came with more people this time so we could order more dishes to try. I went with my usual favourites - traditional stuffed roman schiacciata and porchetta pork belly. Also tried some new items this time, including the burrata, mixed grilled fish and seafood platter, assorted pizzas and homemade tagliolini. Overall, a good experience although slightly marred as it’s really crowded & busy. Would return again.

Its been years since I’ve been here but this place doesn’t disappoint. We both went for the crowd favourite gashouse eggs! The melted cheese & runny egg went so well together with the toast. Loved the chill vibes as well. No regrets travelling here even though it was slightly out of the way.

First time here (took awhile) and it was crowded. Luckily we got a reservation, but we only managed to get outdoor seating. We got the chilli crab pasta & dessert of the day (carrot cake). And I loved the sangria! Overall we enjoyed the food, service was good, ambience was great because this place‘s more secluded from the town area. Would recommend if you don’t mind travelling a little bit further from town.

It’s been a long time (almost 3 years I think!) since I’ve been here, but this place never disappoints! Every dish is well thought out and their quality is very consistent as well. Their signature dish, the Chilean seabass, remains my favourite and is as good as the previous time I ordered it. Tried some new items from the menu this time and they were great! The service is wonderful too. Venue remains as one of the restaurants we will return to in a heartbeat.

These two pastas were the chef’s recommendations so we decided to go with them. We really enjoyed the pappardelle but the lobster linguine was rather average. The bread basket was alright as well. Portions and service were decent. I would say it’s worth it with burpple beyond!
