Found this on Qoo10 and ordered it for Mother's day as my beloved mommy is a great fan of cheesecake.
Everything was hassle free - delivery was prompt and the cakes came frozen. One minor downside is they don't do deliveries on Sunday so I could only get it delivered Saturday and then hide it in the freezer haha.
Anyway, the cakes were delightful! It consists of oreo, blueberry, strawberry, mango and speculoos. My favourites are mango and speculoos as the former is very fruity and tangy while the later is extremely buttery and who doesn't like speculoos?! Haha the cookie base for the fruit ones are the same (generic biscuit base) whereas the one for speculoos is speculoos and oreo similarly also uses oreo base.
All in all, very worthwhile at this price point and definitely recommended!
Finally tried this after seeing Eatbook's post on it!
At only $9.90, you get to choose 5 toppings/ingredients, option of milk tea or coconut milk, as well as some condiments to supplement it (gula melaka, condensed milk, oreo crumbles).
We chose red bean, nata de coco, sago, grass jelly as well as the taro balls and the milk tea option. It also comes with a small jug of hot water so we could pour in the middle of the pot (filled with dry ice) for that instavid π
Overall, I think the dish is well constructed because the milk tea is not too sweet and hence is a good base to eat with the other ingredients. Huge shout-out to the taro balls as it's very QQ! At this price point, I think it's very worth it π
Wanted to try VeganBurg since FOREVER and glad to finally do it today!
We ordered the Beetroot Avocado ($11.90) and Char-Grilled Satay ($10.90) as well as the meal set (Broccoli & Seaweed Fries respectively with drinks - $3.90 add on).
The Beetroot Avocado has a fried soy patty and it was so good! The texture of the patty is very meatish and doesn't taste like soy at all. Highly recommended.
Char-grilled Satay was meh as the patty is too soft and mushy. The satay sauce was also generally lacking in flavor...
Broccoli is quite normal, but I like that they seasoned it with lemon juice so it is slightly tangy. The fries was really good though! Not much seaweed taste but it was fried crispy outside yet fluffy inside.
Overall would recommend to get the fried patties burger in VeganBurg as it is really good π

Have been craving dim sum for a while now and finally got to have it after work! (Have been working from home the past week so good to be back in office for a bit and eat the good food in town xD)
We ordered about 8 dishes (only 6 are featured here)..
Highly recommended items:
- Coriander prawn dumplings ($4.00++) : these are filled with prawn AND meat! The fillings are super plump and juicy. Must-order!
- Meat dumplings in spicy oil ($6.00++) : the sauce is the bomb... The black vinegar + chilli oil coats the silky dumpling extremely well and it just glides down your throat. Mmm π
- Crispy Red Bean w Banana ($4.00++) : This is really well made and both ingredients compliments each other well. I think the fact that Yum Cha fry this upon order (it still taste fresh) makes this dish from good to awesome
Still okayish items:
- Xiao Long Bao ($4.80++) : decent xlb, better than DTF one imo because they used rice wine which give it a bit of a sweeter taste but still pale in comparison to the one at 倧δΈζ΅·
- Scallop Pea-Shoot Dumpling ($4.80++): the filling is nice but the skin doesn't really have much taste. The texture of the skin is also a bit off (too gummy/sticky for my liking)
- Paper Chicken Wings ($5.00++) : although it's in the fried section, the wings were not fried fried so the skin still remain soft. I found it okay but it seems the bf likes it
Give it a miss:
- Sesame BBQ Pork Pastry ($4.50++) : this was the first to come and it is cold and hard. The pastry taste very flat (not fragrant) and the BBQ pork is also not sweet/savory enough.
- Abalone Siew Mai ($5.80++) : we tried to be bougie and ordered this but the abalone is too fishy π would recommend to save the few $ and go for their normal Siew Mai instead (it's good! Just that the abalone did nothing for this dish)
There is a promotion for 30% dim sum items after 6pm on weekdays so do give this place a try! :)

Didn't know what to eat at Chinatown point and when I saw that Kra Pow Thai had high ratings on Burpple (the Orchard branch but oh well haha), I immediately decided we're giving it a try! π
We ordered the Basil Pork Rice ($8.90), as well as the Clear Tom Yum Soup ($8.90), Jasmine Rice ($1.50) and a Coconut drink ($6).
The Basil Pork is very well done, fragrant yet juicy, simply deletable! The sunny side up egg was also well executed, it is not overcooked and the yolk remains runny.
The Soup and Jasmine rice is okay, not bad but nothing to shout about.
Coconut drink was sadly quite disappointing... The flesh was very hard but nonetheless, it's juice is still cold and refreshing. Though at this price point, I would expect a better quality coconut.
Overall, very decent eats at an affordable price. There's no service charge or additional GST too which the Singaporean in me greatly appreciates ;)
We had the Chickenolgy ($16.50), Tomato Chicken Stew ($17.50) and Chilli Cauli Balls ($9.50).
Chickenology - this was the first dish which arrived and the poached egg was super jiggly! Very interesting presentation of the mushroom soup which serves as a sauce. The whole dish works well.
Tomato Chicken Stew (pictured) - dish came in a skillet (good for photos! XD) but sadly, it doesn't taste as good as it looks. The sauce is too watery and sour (I was expecting a more umami, bolognese-y taste) and doesn't blend well with the rest of the ingredients. Nonetheless, the chicken, zucchini and potatoes were well cooked, all very tender and easy to eat. I'm quite impresses by the toast though, crunchy yet fluffy!
Chilli Cauli Balls - this is so good! The cauliflower florets were breaded and then fried before being smothered by a chili crab, eggy sauce. Very flavorful and "meatish" haha recommended to share though as it gets gelak after a while.
Overall we paid $27 for this meal ($17.50 for 1 for 1 mains and $9.50 for the cauli balls side). Decent eats at this price point and nice ambience.
