Quite disappointed with the chirashi as I think it is over rated. It was normal chirashi and I prefer the sauce to put it separately. Their service need to be improve. I would prefer normal bowl than disposable bowl. I feel this is more of a "express" jap food.
Tried signatures like Boru Chirashi ($13.90) and Truffle Somen ($13.90). Definitely wallet friendly but taste wise, I was disappointed cos I came with high expectations. Had read so many positive reviews but upon trying, I thought the chirashi was quite ordinary. Nice variety of ingredients including salmon/tuna/octopus/shrimp/roe but sauce was average. Truffle somen also wasn't to my/friends' liking. Not everything goes with truffle, I guess! 😂 #burpple
Want the satisfaction of a good chirashi bowl without suffering from carbo-overload? The ones from Boru Boru easily hit the spot. While smaller in size as compared to those offered around Singapore (not to mention its $13.90 price tag!), the flavours of each bowl is anything but! Boru Boru also offers a variety of toppings, so you're sure to find something you like. What do you do when you have a bowl of Japanese rice blanketed over with fresh chunks of fish, a gleamingly golden onsen egg, and ikura roes bursting with flavour? You dig in, of course. #BurppleSushiMonth #burpple
Don't miss their seasonal special, Shiro Maguro Boru ($14.90). Slices of aburi shiro maguro with runny onsen egg, tobiko and seasonal vegetables, be sure to grab this limited bowl.

Complete the meal with a cup of latte for $3!
All were great except that the rice might need a little improvement. Its kinda too mushy.
Portion was just right for a female eater but maybe not for a male eater. Having one bowl each didnt satisfy my boy friend tummy, so we order additional don - the seasonal Shiro Maguro (white tuna) don with onsen($14.90). We were glad that we ordered that, cuz its freaking good. Its like in between of foie gras and pork belly. Definitely our favourite of the 3! 👍🏻3.5/5
✔️ its pretty value for money, but my fav kaisen don is still teppei. Dont mind trying out other in the menu

Slices of aburi-ed white maguro with perfect onsen egg. White Maguro are known for their buttery and melt in mouth texture.
This was a hosted tasting courtesy of @boruborusg, thank you @cassakating for extending the invite!
Enjoyed this the most out of the 3 bowls we had here - fresh cubes of salmon, tuna, octopus, shrimp and salmon roe topped on a bed of warm rice. The marination used is good for those who prefer less salty flavours. Overall it's value for money for the variety, although we were slightly bummed that the amount of sashimi we got wasn't really consistent to other pictures we saw.
They also have a new promotion going on now with Candour Coffee, top up a few bucks for a drink, choose from black coffee or cold brew tea (black tea, jasmine, sencha) at +$3, hot Matcha latte or cappuccino at +$4 and even Asahi Super Dry at +$6.50.
Chilled Japanese wheat flour noodles tossed in truffle oil and cubes of fresh octopus, shrimp and Japanese crab sticks then topped with tobiko, this portion was value for money in terms of size. But as much as the whiffs of truffle were strong and attractive, the actual flavour was mild and didn't quite match up for me. Thumbs up to the fresh and generous toppings though!

This was a really good deal at $16.90 and it was delicious with a rather generous portion of salmon too!

Classic Boru - Sake Ikura Boru ($15.90) topped with freshly diced salmon & salmon roe. // So good that i feel this is the benchmark for a good sushi rice bowl. 🐟 Freshness is top notch, serving is generous & filling. Its super reasonable price tag.

This is my personal favourite!! I'm not too much of a sashimi person.. so I look forward to the mix of prawns and taco that came together nicely with the fish, well seasoned! Howbeit not the best deal because the regular (largest) size bowls came in pretty small portions.
Candour has started serving up rice bowls from Boru Boru during lunch and they're currently at 30% off! 😜
We tried a good range of their bowls and this chirashi was one of the better ones. A mix of salmon, tuna, octopus and prawns, the fish was quite fresh and seasoned well. The rice itself was also yummy but curiously the same cold rice was used for the other aburi-ed bowls, creating a weird hot/cold combination. It's currently their soft launch period for these bowls so looking forward to a few tweaks as it seems promising so far! 🚀

Other than the tiny serving, this bowl is great with its well-seasoned rice and chirashi!! The matcha latte on the other hand was slightly disappointing and not strong enough :( Overall, a good experience!

Being voracious when it comes to Chirashi Don's, this small bowl didn't satisfy my one-bowl-is-never-enough craving! 🍚 I held this bowl with one hand and used my iphone to snap the photo. And that, my dear friends, is the size of a regular size bowl. 😑 Alright, back to the main point of this review, the food. The Sake was fresh, rice a bit too dry at the top, and the overload of sauce at the bottom of the bowl brought my lunch to a salty close. 😵 Will I ever go back for lunch? No. Is it worth $13.90 for this, defo NO. Should you check out this place? Up to you. 🤷🏻♀️ #BurppleSushiMonth #Japanesefood #Japanese #ChirashiDon #Sashimi #SalmonSashimi #BoruBoru #Food
