Stretching Beyond

By the team that manages RAPPU, Feather Blade & Mezcla, Proper Concepts are running a booth at Artbox 2023! Located along Burpple Street, grab their easy to eat Onigiri as a solo, or as a trio!

Each set comes with all 3 flavours on the menu with the Wagyu option shining through! You can taste the fatty juices of the Wagyu bits & the slight burnt wokhei on the rice.

If you're on Burpple beyond, you can also get 1 on 1 for their meatballs!

Chanced upon 90 Minutes while scrolling through Burpple Beyond deals & was intrigued by their Korean Hotpot concept.

At $23.90++ per pax, you get a choice of soup base, and unlimited servings of soft drinks (which comes by the tumbler) as well as a variety of cooked & uncooked ingredients. Cooked items includes items such as tofu oden (which is really rare), mandu (Korean dumplings), fried seaweed wrapped Korean glass noodles-just to name a few. We went with 90 mins The Best combination, which is a mixture of their homemade, gungjung & volcano sauce; giving you that spicy kick with every spoonful.

For the hotpot ingredients, you've got your usual suspects of vegetables, shrooms, ramyeon, glass noodles and meats (chicken & pork). There will be a staff present to assist with the picking of items & there is a wastage fee of $5 per 100g.

Once your meal is done & you're down to a lil' bit of soup, you also get a portion of rice, seaweed, corn & kimchi which is fried on the spot with the remaining soup; kinda like a kimchi fried rice.

This satisfying meal was available as 1 for 1 for the month of Jun & Jul, so quickly redeem it if you're on beyond. Otherwise, the usual deals of 30% off your tots bill is still available.

If you're looking for a Muslim-establishment that serves up decent pasta, I am... cafe has got your back!

One of the OG cafes in the area, I am... serves up simple, yet hearty dishes, ranging from pastas, to burgers and many more!

With #BurppleBeyond, we were only able to select from the pasta section & went for the Cajun Chicken Aglio Olio. This dish packed a punch with their Cajun seasoning but did not overpower the entire dish. The spaghetti was lightly tossed in olive oil, and topped with a grilled Cajun chicken-a simple yet tough dish to master.

Located at the entrance (from North Bridge Road) of Haji Lane, I am... cafe can be easily spotted from afar with it's large signage and Alfresco-like dining space.

As a Muslim-owned establishment, their dishes are made accessible to more cafe-goers who enjoys visiting this area!

An early lunch meant that we could grab a seat at this popular cafe and we ordered the Penne Pesto Pasta ($15.90). It comes with perfectly booked penne served with a large portion of grilled chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, olives and pesto herbs.

The chicken was pre-shredded, but still retained some moisture to ensure that it's tender. The pesto was well-balanced without being too salty and the sun-dried tomatoes added a nice sour tang to the dish. Overall, a satisfying dish to re-order when I visit!

Thankfully with #BurppleBeyond, we got this at 1 for 1, so my pasta was half the price, definitely worth it!

Are you a noodles or a rice person? I'm definitely the former when it comes to a choice of carbs (not considering potato cause that definitely tops any list) 🥔.

If you're a fellow noods lover, I urge you to give Eventasty a go! With 2 outlets located in Singapore - Funan & 100AM, this noodle spot serves up hearty bowls of comforting hand pulled noodles in soup broths such as Tomato Soup, as well as Hot & Sour soup!

The latter broth is my go-to, which is also served with shabu-like pork slices, bean sprouts (the Korean kind) & a side of cumin chilli which packs a punch. Soup wise, the perfect balance to sour & spicy hits the jackpot in every sensory tastebud. You've got the tanginess from the sichuan preserved vegetables and a hint of spice which comes in the broth. Regardless of the weather outside, this comforting bowl of noodles will satisfy you.

Best thing is, if you're on #BurppleBeyond, it's 1 for 1 for the noodles, which comes up to

You would've known Hard Rock as the place to be for a concert or gigs but did you know that they do a mean version of Baby Back Ribs?

While we soak in the ambience & reminisce the good ol' concert-going days at Hard Rock Cafe at Cuscaden, dive into this thick slab of Baby Back Ribs ($41.95). This 800g slab falls easily off the bone, and is amazingly tender. Made with their signature spice blend, the ribs are grilled to their perfection, giving you an aromatic smokey bite with every fork-full. You don't really need a knife to slice the meat through as it is fork tender and oh-so-juicy 🤤

Served with a side of fries, beans & coleslaw, this slab is great for two to share, or if you're a big eater, it's all you!

If you're looking for something unconventional, FirePit has got your back! A mix of Turkish & Mediterranean cuisine, coupled with the rustic vibe, FirePit is a great place for small group gatherings!

To share between your friends, try out The Capricosa. The sourdough pizza is made fresh on the spot and is oven-baked in a hand-made brick oven (yes you read that right). On top, you've got fresh Mozz, ham slices, kalamata olives & anchovies.

The combination is a savoury & tangy bite as each slices comes with a fillet of anchovy. Not to worry, the flavours balances out really well with the anchovy giving you that additional saltiness in every bite.

It's also available for takeaway under #BurppleBeyond!

Thanks to #BurppleBeyond, I'm able to explore new places & be able to enjoy 1 for 1 benefits!

One such place that I checked out was YC Dining & Bar, which is housed at Venture Drive, one of the newest buildings in the Jurong East Area.

With the 1 for 1 mains, I'm able to save almost 50% (~$10 per main?!) of the total amount while enjoying maximum satisfaction from the food!

Their Fish & Chips ($18.90) comes with a side of fries & salad & is a fairly huge portion for its price. As it was dabao-ed, the fish still remained crispy after travelling for about 15-20 mins and the meat was soft and moist.

As for their Chicken Parmigiana ($17.90), the layer of cheese added some saltiness to the juicy chicken thigh. Alongside the protein was truffle mashed potatoes (with skin on!) & salad.

Definitely worth it!

Juicy slabs of pork chops that have been marinated with pommery mustard, sage & garlic before being grilled on the barbie.

We ordered it as a medium hence came with a slightly pink center, but it was slightly over cooked for a medium, but it's aite as it still maintained it's juiciness.

Each main comes with a side of salad & fries & a choice of sauce (black pepper, demi glacé or creamy mushroom).

If you're on burpple beyond, this is one of its selections!

A sweltering tiring day calls for some iced coffee, & I'm glad to find one 10 mins away from home!

Olla Specialty Coffee serves up nylon beans, both as filter options & espresso options & is located in the vicinity of Sunset Way (near all the newly hyped ice cream stores).

Although slightly tucked away, their store is still bustling with takeaway orders & dine-ins during a weekday lunch hour.

Their iced white comes as a perfect balance between coffee & milk, with a slightly sweet toffee-like finish.

Best of all, available on #BurppleBeyond! So 2 coffees for the price of 1!
