Satisfying buffet that you gotta go! It was interesting to find out that @cqgf.sg has a buffet menu, and if you are a big eater, this is a very good option to go for! The weekday lunch buffet cost just $28.80, with many grilled fish and side dishes that you can order. Among all the variations of grilled fish we ordered, the 𝙒𝙖𝙣𝙯𝙝𝙤𝙪 𝙊𝙡𝙙 𝙎𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙤𝙡 𝙂𝙧𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙙 𝙁𝙞𝙨𝙝 was our favourite. The patin fish used was very meaty and really fresh, and we loved how flaky it was! It was cooked in a very fragrant chilli oil that isn't too spicy and yet very flavourful! Among the many selections of side dishes that we enjoyed such as saliva chicken, seasoned black fungus as well as egg fried rice, the 𝙁𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙙 𝙈𝙖𝙣 𝙏𝙤𝙪 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙣𝙨𝙚𝙙 𝙈𝙞𝙡𝙠 was the perfect accompaniment to the grilled fish. It was crispy, fluffy and the sweet touch of the condensed milk gave a good break to the savoury meal we were having. Can't wait to be back to have a feast with my friends here again!

Spicy Numbing Patin Fish 川味麻辣水果鱼 The main star of the night is the signature Spicy Numbing Patin Fish 川味麻辣水果鱼($44). The mild spicy level is quite comfortable and the fish is very soft and flavourful. However, it is also quite salty and you definitely need some rice to go with it. The fish already comes with a number of sides such as scallops and clams, and we added on other sides such as mushroom platter, black fungus, thick vermicelli, frozen beancurd, Chinese cabbage and fried beancurd skin, which makes it a really hearty meal. Overall, the food is on the saltier side and it does get a little jelak towards the end but I still enjoyed this on the whole!

Sliced Pork Belly with Spicy Garlic Sauce 蒜泥白肉 For appetiser, we ordered Sliced Pork Belly with Spicy Garlic Sauce 蒜泥白肉 ($8.90) and the fragrant garlic sauce goes well with the thinly sliced pork belly.

Drunkard Prawns Prawns are fresh and crunchy

Kelong Feast at JB to end 2019 Restoran Todak was bustling on the last day of the year and we enjoyed the chili crab (RM 126 for about 900g, which is about $40 sgd, pretty worth it). The chili crab is more tangy sweet than spicy. Still we like how fresh it is, and how it comes with the shells cracked already, so it's easy to just bite into the meat. + The sea view of the North side of Singapore is good. V memorable night here just chatting with the sea breeze. We enjoyed the horfun here a lot too. Ps this is about 20 mins cab ride from mt Austin

For Tasty and Affordable Seafood Crossing the bridge just for a meal at this massive seafood restaurant might sound like a radical idea, but the Burpple community assures it’s worth it. This restaurant is located near a local fish farm, so look forward to produce at its freshest. Crabs (from RM5 per 100g) are a must-order, especially the thick and eggy chilli sauce or spicy black pepper. Don’t stop there! Share some Butter Squid (from RM15), Curry Prawns (from RM10 per 100g) and Steamed Fish (MP) too. Dinner service gets a bit crazy here, so take Burppler’s Dex Neo’s advice and drop by for before 6pm to beat the crowd. *Grab from City Square, ~SGD13, ~17-min ride Photo by Burppler Marcus Lee

30% Off Total Bill (~save $30) As their name suggests, Derwish Turkish Restaurant serves delicious Turkish dishes! This includes their Baba Ghanoush, a Levantine appetiser consisting of finely chopped roasted eggplant, olive oil, lemon juice, various seasonings, and tahini. What’s more, the eggplant is traditionally baked or broiled over an open flame before peeling,so that the pulp is soft and has a smoky taste.

Hummus ($13.90++) and Pita Bread ($4.00++) Can never eat Mid-Eastern without hummus and pita 😋 Hummus dish comes with some pita as well. The bread is freshly made and still hot when served. Perfect with the well-mixed/oiled hummus. Could be better with a bit of tang 👌🏻 ——— 📍 Derwish 60 Bussorah St, Singapore 199476 #derwish #burpplesg

Mixed Grill for 2 pax ($62++) Mixed Grill for 2 pax ($62++) A big dish with a combination of Adana Beef, Adana Tavuk, Kuzu Shih, and Tavuk Shih. The lamb is not gamey at all, and seasoning is on point. The beef and chicken had a bit of tough parts on some pieces, but forvigable mostly as seasoning is just right This dish was served with a pita underneath, and 2 big cups of rice + other sides (definitely good for more than 2 pax lol) It’s been a while since I had Middle-Eastern food. Happy that this dish is not so bad :) ——— 📍 Derwish 60 Bussorah St, Singapore 199476 #derwish #burpplesg

Blackmores’ Cube Roll 🍴DINE OUT🍴 📍Burnt Ends, Dempsey📍 ... Can't believe almost a month has past since we dined at Burnt Ends... 😐 It was tough getting a reservation towards the end of last year, but we were lucky to have scored one! We had an absolutely amazing dining experience. From small plates, main courses, to dessert🍬, the food was exquisitely presented and we loved the combination of flavours. Do try their Blackmores' cube roll🥩...it's THAT good! 😌

King Crab Legs Burnt Ends King Crab Legs were tender, rich & sweet! The flavour is very well balance from the garlic brown butter. Worth it! Location: Burnt Ends 7 Dempsey Rd, #01-04, Singapore 249671

Brisk(et) Business I’ve enjoyed @meatsmith.sg cheeseburgers that were formed from ground brisket many times before, but I’ve never had an honest-to-God brisket burger that was just cut up brisket. Well, at @beervillage.co a couple of weeks ago, I finally got to experience heaven sandwiched between two stunningly soft housemade potato buns. According to the Beer Village token to dollar conversion rate, this Brisket Sandwich is approximately twenty five dollars. Pricey, yes, but it’s a behemoth brisket burger.⠀ ⠀ I’ve heard that Meatsmith’s meats can be hit or miss, but this brisket burger was just like that one verse from a Drake track. Just hits, no misses. Terrifically tender, joyously juicy, scintillatingly savoury & smoky, this fatty cut of brisket was a thrill for the tastebuds. The brisket required scant amounts of effort to chew, and the fatty & juicy beef went down with minimal fuss. The brisket was already sufficiently breathtaking, but in concert with tangy BBQ sauce & creamy aioli, as well as the crisp red onions & pickles an acidic rebalancing, this Brisket Sandwich was a sapid superstar.⠀ ⠀ I didn’t even know that Meatsmith did donuts, but now I do, and damn I want some more. I was sorely tempted to get the Nutella donut for $7.50, but I settled on the strawberry jam stuffed one instead, and it was a truly inspired choice. The sharp, sour and slightly sweet strawberry jam cut right through all the richness of the brisket, and the bitterness of all the beer I’d had and revitalised my sense of taste. The dough was also quite incredible, with a fine balance between doughy, carb-y satisfaction and airy lightness that doesn’t surfeit. Sure it’s expensive for a donut, but you’d have to be a donut if you didn’t try it at least twice.⠀ ⠀ Thanks for getting me on the VIP list, bossman @kevin._.ngan, and thanks for the jio @wobblethebui!

Meatsmith $20 each Pork ribs & Beef brisket

Meat smith We had meatsmith burger sent to us for lunch by patient before. We were busy and left it cold and dry before we had chance to eat it. After a year, yesterday, we went there to taste it fresh and hot! When the burger was served, i thought oh it looked small, but actually it was the right size. I couldnt have been able to finish it if it was any bigger. So i was just being greedy. It was very juice and a messy burger. It definitely tasted much nice than it being cold and dry. I found it a bit salty. Burger from burger joint is still my favourite. The Mac& cheese i ordered for our daughter, unfortunately she is really soooooo spoiled with cheese. She had a few mouth full and said this M&C is not nice. The one we had at home is better.

Assorted brownies and blondies Finally got to taste Edith’s earl grey, salted speculoos, matcha & hazelnut brownies & blondies! So good! I can’t figure out which is my favourite! So I shall show no favoritism tonite.

Lychee Rose 🌹 Cake Delish chunks of lychee sandwiched between rose scented cream and the fluffy sponge cake, really yummy on every bite. No wonder it’s one of their popular cakes around ! 😊

Disgusting Cake Delivered With Broken Berries Broken berries for Black Forest cake delivered My kids are resist of Black Forest cake now Better dining in, if delivered might having same issue and give you $5 discount for future purchase Singapore so many shop why we must go back to you

Ohayo [$20.00] French toast served with maple glazed pork belly, rocket, burrata, pomegranates and tomatoes! A great combination of the ingredients!

Japanese-Western Fusion Restaurant is tuck at the end of the street at a little corner without a prominent sign. So it could be easier to miss. Portion is way too small. I and my friend are not children, we should not be treated with kid-size meals ! I ordered Ebisu, my friend ordered Ontaru pasta. If we as Asians feel that the portion is small, then all the more a Caucasian would feel the portion is even smaller. Taste is good though. Hope you can improve on the portion.

Genki ($16) Ninja bowl’s Genki is a yaki unagi served alongside Korean mung beansprouts, roasted pumpkin, beets, and a soft gooey onsen egg. The portion of unagi was generous and also grilled to perfection with a slightly sweet teriyaki sauce. The roasted pumpkins were also delectably tasty. Remember to add rice so that the onsen egg has a home to melt itself into a creamy gorgeous mess :) This has a total belly score of *drumroll*: 3.75/5! 🐟

Build Your Own Bowl We came at the wrong time, when they're not serving their main menu, so this was the only food. I had kalua pulled pork, sauteed mushrooms, roasted carrot and, of course, onsen egg. It is what it is.

Delicious Bowl Beef, mashed pumpkin, onsen egg, ninja rice, paprika corn with truffle something sauce. Yummy in my belly!

Some Hits, Some Misses The flavours of the dishes are fairly consistent, over our 2 visits. However, the portions of some of the dishes are fairly small, and would not be enough for most people. Some must-try dishes are the Maui dream (croissant with crab and scrambled eggs) as well the Oceans of Mentaiko.

Voucher limitation 1-1 cakes cannot be used on weekends. This rule is not found in T&C though.

Note The 1-1 for cakes / pastries is not accurate. None of the pastries are part of the deal. Only the cakes.

BOGO mains Came back for the chicken breast soba noodles But it wasn’t as great as the first time I had it. Not sure why. Tried their beers too and it’s pretty nice, a chill place for dinner for the outside seats since it’s more cooling at night.
