Big Breakfast & Crab Linguine Used Burpple 1-1 deal! Big breakfast - 9.5/10 Crab Linguine - 9/10 There was no GST or service charge here! really worth it especially with Burpple :)

Prawn Aglio Olio The Prawn Aglio Olio ($16) is the bomb - the tiger prawns are huge, crunchy and succulent, and the al dente linguine tossed in olive oil, garlic confit, mushroom, chilli and Italian parsley is very aromatic. Love this!

Steep’s Breakfast Steep’s Breakfast ($19) comes with sourdough toast, eggs, turkey bacon, herb sausage, avocado, sautéed mushroom, mixed greens, tater tots and roasted tomato. This is a very hearty big breakfast and I love the variety found in one plate.

Desserts A dining concept by @fleursophygroup, beautiful place for beautiful desserts @underderlindensg Location: Under Der Linden, 5B Portsdown Rd, Singapore 139311

food meh and q ex but you’re paying for the vibe 📍: One-north . tried this secluded restaurant a while back and the vibes are to die for 💯 super pretty w flowers all around in a quiet neighbourhood :’) food was q meh tbh haha got the pesto parpadelle pasta ($20++) and the pasta was q soft and not al dente 😢 (although some ppl might like it this style) the sauce was a bit too watery for my liking too. we also got the wagyu striploin with peppers ($18++) - seasoning was nubbad, reminded me of satay. my fav was the heaven’s queen drink ($8++) tho HAHA. it was shiok and refreshing :-) overall i think i’ll j come here for the vibes and to getaway from the crowd 😬 —— OVERALL: 3.5/5

Pretty place for a higher price The vibe and food service at this cafe was extremely lovely. It was my first time having coffee served in such an elaborate yet delicate manner. I thought the food choices and coffee were ok, not extraordinary/memorable in taste for the price. Dog-friendly which is great for pet owners, but the place was reverberating with barks after a while. A place that I would just come once to check it out, but may not return.

Sugar & Tease - Part 2/2 We also liked the 𝗜𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲 ($5) for its smoothness, but the 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗮 ($5) could be improved because the matcha flavour was too faint. The beverages were served with homemade cookies, which was a nice touch. We preferred the butter cookies to the chocolate ones because they emitted a fabulous fragrance. This tiny cafe is definitely worth visiting for its desserts and the watermelon cake has been placed on the top of my to-eat list.

Sugar & Tease - Part 1/2 Chanced upon a little patisserie called Sugar & Tease located in Onze, which tbh is a building most people tend to overlook. The friendly gentleman at the counter informed us the most popular item was their watermelon cake. I saw a few dozen of them displayed in the glass counter, but sadly they were all pre-ordered and none were left.  We settled for the 𝗠𝗶𝘅𝗲𝗱 𝗕𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗧𝗮𝗿𝘁 ($9), which looked gorgeous. Strawberries, raspberries and blackberries adorned the tart, making it look like a tiny fruit garden. The juicy fruits provided a nice textural contrast to the firm tart shell, and we found this dessert immaculate.  𝐒𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐫 & 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 11 Kee Seng Street Unit 01-04 Onze @ Tanjong Pagar Singapore 089218

Strawberry Watermelon Cake ($7.50) Refreshing and well-constructed, the cake was a delightful interplay of crunchy seedless watermelon, light cream, and moist fluffy sponge fragranced with subtle rose flavour. The thick slab of watermelon, and additional topping of watermelon tipped the balance off slightly in feeling more of fruits with a side of cake rather than an integrated cake. Thicker sponge:watermelon ratio would have likely done the trick. If comparing to the OG, also found that more almond dacquoise and topping of pistachio nuts would have enhanced the nuttiness to contrast with the berries. Overall, solid version of the original @blackstarpastry cake that came short in certain areas but still enjoyable in its own right. They kindly offered us their cookies to sample and both the dark chocolate sea salt and pecan cookie were light and airy, crisp, and highly addictive. 📍@sugarandtease, 01-04, Onze @ Tanjong Pagar, 11 Kee Seng Street, Singapore Insta: cafehoppingkids

1f1 tasting portion Tried the lamb ragu and the mentaiko pasta. We chose the pumpkin Pasta with the ragu sauce but we felt another pasta would have went better with the rich sauce. I love the lamb sausage too with the feta. The mentaiko was nice as usual. We also tried the mushroom soup but it was pretty mid. Very worth work burpple deal!

Tiramisu ($8.90) Small and it was served just in a small container. The alcohol taste was quite strong and the mascarpone was sweet and creamy, but we couldn’t really taste the coffee in it. All in all, average and not memorable.

Ragu ($25.90) with Beetroot Lunghi I thought this would look better but the aesthetic was a bit lacking. The portion was also small and the beef was tough. The beef cubes were flavourful, but very tough (full of tendons that were very tough to bite). The sauce for this was quite watery too and didn’t stick to the beetroot Lunghi well.

Lobster & Risotto Perfection at VUE If there’s one dish that truly stole the show at VUE, it was the Grilled Maine Lobster and their signature Wild Forest Mushroom Risotto. The lobster was grilled to tender perfection, its natural sweetness elevated by a rich fermented carrot butter sauce—an unexpected yet delightful pairing that added depth and umami. Buttery, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth good. Then there’s the risotto—creamy, earthy, and intensely aromatic. Each spoonful was a luxurious blend of wild mushrooms and perfectly cooked rice, comforting yet indulgent, making it the ultimate pairing with the lobster. With the stunning rooftop view of the Singapore skyline, these dishes alone make a visit to VUE worth it.

A Memorable Dining Experience with a Rooftop View at VUE Dining at VUE is more than just a meal—it’s an experience elevated by binchotan-grilled specialties and stunning rooftop views of the Singapore skyline. We had the privilege of indulging in the 5-course Winter Tasting Menu, and every dish was a standout. For the cold appetizer, I couldn’t resist the Kumamoto A5 Black Wagyu Beef Tartare (+$10 top-up), hand-cut and mixed with egg yolk gel, yuzu, and a hint of chili oil—absolute perfection. My dining partner went for the Summer Heirloom Tomatoes, beautifully paired with smoked burrata and a refreshing tomato gazpacho poured tableside. The Grilled Maine Lobster (+$20 top-up) came highly recommended, and it did not disappoint. Cooked to a tender bite, the fermented carrot butter sauce added an unexpected richness that complemented the seafood so well. But if there’s one dish you must order at VUE, it’s their signature risotto. The Wild Forest Mushroom Risotto was luxuriously creamy and earthy—each spoonful a burst of flavor. For the main, I went back to my favorite—Kumamoto A5 Wagyu Beef, perfectly grilled and paired with a red wine reduction for a touch of sweetness and acidity. Ending on a sweet note, we indulged in the Caramel Banana with gingerbread sponge, the Mont Blanc with chestnut ice cream, and were pleasantly surprised with a serving of Shizuoka Musk Melon from the chef. A spectacular meal with an equally breathtaking view—VUE is definitely one for the books.

dessert complimentary desserts!!! the rose madeleine was the best, subtle rose flavour but super nice. next fav was the middle one in pink that has this white chocolate casing on the outside

Hay & Apples I was pretty excited to pay @nosleepclubsg a visit as they’d received the Campari One To Watch Award 2020 from the organisers of Asia’s 50 Best Bars. I ordered a 𝐇𝐚𝐲 & 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐬, which is a highball made of scotch whisky sous vide with toasted hay and served with fermented apple chamomile honey. This drink is smoky and sweet, with a hint of earthiness from the toasted hay. What I enjoy about this drink is that it’s not too sweet, and it’s boozy but doesn't hit you as hard as some whisky-based drinks do. Super easy and enjoyable to drink! The cosy interior makes @nosleepclubsg perfect for good conversations over some tasty interesting tipples🥂!

Basque Cheesecake 16.0(Inclusive Of Gst) So it's 14.95+(gst). The service was really good(this dashing 20yo Swedish? who spoke perfect English) and you're supposed to tip but the quality of the food really made that difficult It tastes exactly like an NY to me, idk why. First of all the cheesecake doesn't flow AT ALL. Though they explained it's meant to be that way, to go with the ice cream. Cheesecake itself was executed decently but it's nothing special about it at all. Take note this is 16 before service charge(tips in this case). Olivia's one is 14 lol Salted caramel ice cream was more like shoyu ice cream, it's watery and very salty. Come here for the service team. Srsly though, they're pretty cool

An absolutely stunning Sunday Roast It’s been awhile since I had a Sunday roast (complete with Yorkshire pudding and gravy mind you), so when I saw this on No Sleep Club’s weekend offerings it earned an immediate “HELL YEAH!!!” from us. If you could say no to this beautiful plate of food, well shame on you. That’s all I have to say. You’ve got a choice between roast pork or beef ($35), and while I’m sure the pork would make a fab option as well I was mighty pleased we got the beef. Thicc, tender, absolutely succulent, and perfectly seasoned too with a wonderfully smokey and charred crust. The accompanying gravy was on point as well: rich and aromatic, thick and nicely reduced without any starchy fillers. Put that with sides of roasted potatoes, sautéed spinach and shrooms, and some crisp puffy Yorkshire puddings, and you’ve got yourself a Sunday deliciously spent 🤤🤤🤤

Weekend Brunch Tapas 👍 Tried the 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗦𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗦𝗺𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗕𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝘀𝗵 at Bar Uva. We visited on the opening weekend of their ala carte buffet. For 2.5h seating, you can get unlimited tapas (bar bites, small plates, sharing plates and desserts) with the option of bottomless wines. Given the variety, I'd recommend the buffet option as opposed to ordering individual dishes since you get to try a lot more food at only a fraction of the price. ▪️Tapas + Bottomless Wine Buffet $88 ▪️Brunch Tapas Buffet $48 ▪️Bottomless Wine Buffet $48 Menu available in my Instagram post (14 November). Truly enjoyed the spread!

Grilled Brussel Sprouts 🌱 This came with candied gyanciale and mornay sauce. You can also request for vegetarian option. Highly recommend trying the weekend brunch tapas buffet ($48/pax), that allows you to choose from a variety of bar bites, small plates, sharing plates and desserts! Definitely value-for-money and nice ambience too 💸

Bone Marrow Butter with Sour Dough Bread You know the sour dough is good when you order the wood-fired sour dough ala carte and then proceed to continue ordering another variation of the sour dough. This was our "add on" after being impressed by our classic sour dough. This is $12 on its own but there's an option for weekend brunch tapas (up to 2.5h seating) for $48 that allows you to try a whole range of other dishes. The buffet option seems like a good deal 💸 Shared about this in more detail on Instagram

The Pesado ($14) Papi's Tacos offer a simple line-up of tacos that comes in a set of two. The Pescado has fried dory fish, purple cabbage, pickled carrots and smoked chipotle aioli, wrapped in soft flour tortilla. It was a mixed of vibrant flavours and textures as you get the crunch, the freshness and tanginess from all the elements, with a slight heaty spice from the sauce.

Burrito de Suadero ($24++, Bowl), Tacos de Suadero ($16++), Tacos de Pollo ($13++), Tacos de Pescado ($15++) Second time at Papi’s and it’s a casual alfresco setting at the Seah Street outlet. My favourite taco out of the lot was the grilled fish tacos because it proves a point that you can have a flavourful fish taco without having to deep fry the fillet. The evening’s soft corn tortillas came in different hues for the different sets we’ve ordered and made me curious if these were in-house made, overall the Mexican food here fare better on the flavors scale that masks the quality of ingredients at a palatable price point.

The Gringo As tacos are not sufficiently filling for us, we decided to order burritos and The Gringo caught our eyes due to its unique name! This dish is a chicken-based tortilla wrap with marinated chicken, cilantro rice, black beans, pico de Gallo and cheese! The chicken was slightly spicy and added some flavour to the burrito and we liked it! However, the flavour of the chicken and black beans basically overwhelmed the tastes of the other items, as we did not taste any cheese in the wrap. We also liked the fact that the burritos here were wrapped very tightly and served in a separate paper wrap, which made the dish really convenient to eat. Conversely, we would have created a huge mess out of the burritos served at many other restaurants! The serving size was pretty generous, however, and we were completely full after finish the burrito. It was way more filling than it looks! The burrito costs $15++, which is pretty standard for restaurant-grade Mexican fare in Singapore and you can be sure that you will get a food coma from this. 😁

sc@m bro explain to me : 1. adult price 17.90 but the 1 for 1 is 26.90 2. third person cannot use student price, forced to use adult price 3. not found anywhere in the t&cs never coming again for mid food and this sc@my deal 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 do better

ridiculous customer service went there on a tuesday afternoon, 2 pax, both students. showed them the page of the burpple 141 all day buffet before entering and the cashier said can use on that day. after finishing the meal, they charged me wknd adult prices for the 141! even though we were both students, and we went on a weekday lunch … charged me 30.80 for 2 pax when if without the deal, i would have paid 35.40 for 2 pax student lunch anyways. absolute clickbait when didnt even specify in t&cs of the deal itself, only told us after we finished the meal. dont ever go there what a misleading advertisement to attract customers.

Korean Tteokbokki Hotpot Buffet 4⭐️/5 (Applicable for burpple 30%) [Dinner buffet $19.90 + cheese ring $9.90 before GST] Pretty unique buffet with lots of variety like the tteokbokki, deep fried dishes and fish cake stewer. Ordered the classic soup which is sweet, flavourful and not spicy. The cheese ring contains sweet corn which I think should be left out, haha. Finishing the hotpot, there is an option to fry the rice with the left over soup base but I think the fried rice was a meh.
