Looking for Late Night places?

🦀A seafood lover’s burger with pretty strong seafoody taste (from the mentaiko and fish roe bits). The soft shell crab was fried to a nice crispy touch and sandwiches between brioche buns slathered with a good amount of mentaiko sauce. The pillowy buns nicely complemented the crispy soft shell crab in terms of texture and...taste too! Cos the crab, when eaten on its own, was a tad too salty - according to the boyfriend. The thick cut fries could have been crispier, or replaced with potato cuts. It was a lil’ soggy for most but then again I guess the highlight and deal here’s the soft shell crab and buns, instead of the fries right?

“Get this if you’re a cheese lover!” recommends the waitress. And so I did! Verdict: hmms...the additional cheese portion comes with a bowl of cheese which you can dip your burger and fries (nacho cheese fries!) - a pretty good deal if you like nacho cheese. Personally, I prefer the melty cheeses in burgers, not the more liquidy version of nacho cheese (never a fan of nachos). I’d expected melty cheddar but it wasn’t! 😔 nevertheless, the nacho cheese dip served me well - I dunked my fries into it and it was a good portion for 2 servings of fries! The charcoal bun added an aesthetic touch to the burger but it was a lil’ more stiff than their brioche. Beef patty was cooked to a nice medium, with bacon well done & cheese nicely melted. A very, very sinful meal and a pretty good deal with no service charge and gst!

The awesomely named Dragon & Buri has 5 key ingredients.
.
The first; lightly fried fresh buri / yellowtail / Japanese amberjack fish, coated in a crisp crunchy tempura batter. The fish is light and flaky moist, with a distinct savoury salty fish flavour.
.
The second and third; a blend of cream cheese and dragonfruit juice, smeared on the serving plate. This has a rich, creamy thick texture, with bright fruity sweet sour flavour.
.
The fourth; crisp fried emperor vegetable / basella alba leaves with vegetal sweet salty flavour, is draped over the dish.
.
Finally the fifth; grainy minced garlic dressing with a sharp herbal sour earthy flavour to pair.
.
Chef was inspired by the Singaporean food culture, crafting this to pay homage to the exotic fruits on the island.

Invited tasting. 5-course omakase starts at SGD $100++ per person.

I missed Happy Hour, but I still enjoyed my pint of Passionfruit Wheat Ale ($14+) from Pasteur Street. Citrusy & fruity, there are hints of passionfruit & lemon, more so the former than latter so it isn't sour like a saison. A light & delicious beer that pleases the crowd, & which I would order again.

Sat at the bar counter with my back turned to the world; but before I immersed myself in some me time, I looked around & found the decor to be pretty simple. With various tones of grey & silver, the style is very metallic, almost like the interior of a spaceship.

One downside is that reception was pretty bad here.. I sat at the bar, not sure if it varies throughout the premises as they don't have a huge space). WiFi also isn't for public use, so I left after 1 beer. I'll probably return with a friend, or if I have offline work to do. 🍻

Happy Hour or not, whatever you swipe your (linked) credit card for, you'll get cashback from Shopback GO! I actually didn't know this until I checked my phone after I swiped 😂

this is a super underrated place!!! they have a huuuge variety of meats with many flavours, such as lychee, bak kwa and curry, that i don’t usually see in franchise kbbq outlets so that was an eye opener! furthermore their pork belly slices have a reallyy good ratio of fats! not only is the pork meat good, the chicken is tender while their beef is chewy and full of flavour. what’s more, they even make waffles for you upon request that you can pair with various ice creams, from chocolate, to blueberry ripple, and even green tea.

the amazing thing is that with burpple beyond, i only paid about $15 so it really made my whole experience sooo worth 😭
rating: 8/10

A creative fusion of Japanese and French influences.
.
This features thick cut fillets of fresh bonito fish, flash smoked over rice straws, garnished with sliced cucumber and watercress leaves.
.
You get the tender flaky meaty chew of the bonito fish with its deep savoury salty smoky flavour, then the fresh vegetal sweet notes of the juicy cucumbers and crunchy watercress leaves.
.
The dressing of miso sauce, sherry vinegar, walnut paste, and chestnut oil lends alternating notes of savoury sour earthy nutty flavours.
.
Contrasted by the base which features creamy dollops of yoghurt with milky sour flavour, and crunchy Japanese leeks with vegetal earthy sweet flavour. These help cut through the richness of the fish.
.
This dish leans more towards the French balance of taste profiles.
.
Invited tasting. 5-course omakase starts at SGD $100++ per person.

Pity Burpple 1-1 ended for this amazing Korean bar! Still visit often though as I cannot get enough of their amazing alcoholic drinks and side dishes! Ambience is amazing with loud Korean tunes and jolly conversation filling the small but cozy place! 💕🤟🏻

Use of ice mint for that very refreshing touch! Well balanced with the lime juice and dark rum

.
This closely resembles the Japanese chawanmushi, except, that it's not.
.
The dense yet velvety soft foie gras mousse carries delicate savoury salty flavour from being slightly torched, while the vegetal earthy sweet savoury burdock root braised in home made poultry consommé lends a contrasting crunch to texture.
.
Luxurious creamy uni morsels round out this dish with briny salty sweet flavour.
.
Chef spoons more of the consommé over before serving it. Incredible burst of flavour, yet, it remains light on the palate.

My friends and I wanted to grab dinner at Clarke Quay before heading to drink and decided to try Ramen Keisuke Lobster King since we are around the vicinity.

I ordered the Lobster broth Ramen Clear Soup for 16.36 including service charge and GST.

Overall, I find the the Ramen is lackluster compared to the other Keisuke I have tried. The ingredients is not finely sliced and was lack of flavour.

I would say there is other Ramen which is cheaper but better than this. Hence, I would not suggest this to anyone and would rather head to Chinatown to have dinner instead if you are planning to have a meal before drinking.
