Pork was not bad, could have been a bit more tender. There's a crunch on the exterior. Portion was huge as well for the price. It's got a nice savouriness in the dry rub.

Served w sambal belachan, it overpowers the rub but it's otherwise decent w the pork

PSA PAELLA, WAGYU, LAMB RACK NOT AVAILABLE FOR BURPPLE

very disappointing and misleading, all the reviews are about these 3 items and none of them are available on burpple beyond.

The food was pretty good, the pork ribs were slightly dry but still reasonably tender. In exchange, it does have a decent crisp. Mildly sweet marinate worked well too, very different from the ribs you get usually slathered in sauce.

Portion was good too, feeds one extremely well but from the portion you can tell it's meant to be shared

22 is ridiculous for this amount of octopus

It's very thinly sliced and swamped w aioli. Not a good sign at all. Thankfully it's not as bad as we thought, but it's not particularly good at all either

Overall: the dishes take damn long to come, despite the restaurant being less than half full. Esp something like the yam brulee which is literally chilled below, they just need to brulee the top, and yet we waited 15mins for that? Also, we went exactly as they opened on Sunday and they told us they were out of beef short ribs (and pandan Panna cotta wasn't avail on the menu either). Ridiculous

Yam paste, pumpkin paste, both chilled, covered by a competent bruleed top. No surprises, not too bad

Served with one choice of sides, we got mushroom fricasse here which was pretty good, the mushroom was rather intense in flavour

Baby back ribs were fall off the bone tender, slathered in a sweet and slightly sour BBQ sauce.

Quite a decent rendition

The Asian sauerkraut is AVG, pork knuckle was pretty decent. The skin had a hard crunch, but both the skin and the meat were tender enough. The mild version of a Thai nam jim Jaew sauce did it's trick too

The price is quite something actually, almost 20 bucks for quarter ckn

Veggies were unpleasant as usual and the corn muffin portion shrunk which was fine by me

I do think they're overrated, for this price especially, although it could easily be that standards have dropped.

The pork steak looks so much more generous in the reviews before me. The bagel was a jaw workout, really way too much bite, I was tired before I was done. The flavours were too mild to come through, although the ingredients were fine.

I like cheese so I liked the caramelised cheddar for this cheddar bagel. But otherwise at this standard, nah no need to try

Same super-well charred patty, much smokier than most places. The butter wasn't weird but it's kind of exactly how you expect it to taste, there's no new magic. As such I didn't think they harmonise very well, but this was a good burger still

I recommend the goldburger, that was insane

Garlic butter sauce was more cream sauce with garlic, kind of like your generic pasta

Seafood was fresh, but I'm surprised how little food there is. Mostly shells, not enough for one big eater+one medium eater. Do add on corn, there's not a lot of it.

This was pretty good, the mushrooms and risotto were full of savouriness and depth.

This is supposed to be main for 1 and even though it's 1kg, 1 person might potentially finish this.

The meat is about 400g I guess? Quite a good portion for sharing, it's extremely tender and well cooked. There's a bit of crisp in the exterior and quite fatty. Probably gets abit jelak for 1 person. A safe choice, nothing out of the blue and not extraordinarily flavourful or juicy, but good at this price

Only the most annoyingly accurate, the most painfully truthful reviews.
