Burpple Beyond
Milking them 1 for 1 moist tea cakes over fancy filter coffee - +1 for Burpplebeyond!
The more gratifying waffles I’ve ate as of late sweetened by the Burpplebeyond deal. 10/10 worth revisits!
The top trending Burpplebeyond place for clear reasons, you’d come here to be treated to comforting but not to palatable grub created by chef- founder that now runs sister restaurants Mia and Eleven Strands.
The pastas handmade or not will satiate but our favourite items are surprisingly from the mains, for example the perfectly cooked lean pork loin.
With burpple savings we also have the leeway to indulge in the dessert menu. The week we visited we had the seasonal special dessert of a warm galette tart like pastry beaded with cooked apple chunks. It was was a match made when dunked in the cold scoop of vanilla ice cream. A must order when available as me and my dining nodded in union.
Call this “white trash food” but I loved my Sunday “lunch” on a hot afternoon recently that was sweetened with Burpplebeyond.
Paying $30++ for a coffee, matcha latte and 2 smoothie bowls I was still pleased despite this not being the usual burpple 1 for 1 deal.
My Tropicana smoothie bowl had a deliciously smooth and rich blend of the stipulated tropical fruits (mangoes, banana pineapples) together with coconut milk. As crunches there is also a good portion of granola with nuts. True to its picture fresh, although tart, green kiwi slices and cubed white dragonfruits were garnished on this beautiful bowl.
We want to come back for the açai breeze.
You don’t get 1 for 1 savings here but warranted given the quality of fuss free Japanese fare Kei Kaisendon offers.
I was happy to get a valuable meal of 2 dons, chicken yakitoris, clam miso soup, salad and japanese green tea with my Burpplebeyond redemption.
The Chirashi like mix in the signature Kei Kaisendon had enough chunky sashimi to keep me happy and the Unagi fish is one of the better ones you’d find even for the usual price you are paying.
P.s: yes that is a fried egg looking item you spy on the Unagi Don for the mother who is adverse to soft boil/ onsen eggs, thank you to the staff making this to accede to the dowager’s request.
Back at this beautiful place to snag some 1 for 1 non-chilled tea time cakes on a lazy Sunday afternoon. While the promising lemon pound cake looked the part it was slightly dry on that coincidentally sweltering afternoon. The carrot cake fared better and will delight any walnut fans for the slice of cake had a generous portion of the brain food within and as garnish.

For ~$10 for these pastas, kudos to Burpplebeyond, they were value for money plates of commercially sourced dry pastas with flavourful sauces and condiments.

Keong Siak has been know for their various innovative bakes and to find them on Burpplebeyond was like a gift.
Since my previous visit years ago, I did hear that resident bakers have changed but was happy to find the cakes I had as solid as I remember the bakery to be. My rose lychee cheesecake was a dainty delicious play of the establishment’s signature cheesecake. The matcha swiss roll was also memorable with an excellently soft roll cake that held a generous serving of smooth matcha cream. We loved the powdered matcha to balance out a very sweet matcha icing like garnish.

Amuse ice cream sandwich shortbread, the banoffee pecan flavor and triple chocolate flavors. The ice creams here are a treat and good for they are non-icy and smooth, sadly I felt the chocolate shortbread on chocolate ice cream a slight chocolate overdose after awhile.
That said you’d find me revisiting to try the brownies and other ice cream flavors when around the area, enabled by burpple.

Hopscotch mains at the beautiful garden by the bay, I could not complain.
My portobello burger had some misses of way too wet sautéed onion that would not be called caramelised onions, a tasty yet contrasting tomato relish that felt like a lost child. Yet, the brioche bun used was good and portobello patty seasoned well with firmness and juiciness.
What I adored was the cocktail I snagged during happy hour, the pot of cold is a fancy concoction nicely thought through by the mixologist(s). As explained and written on menu: “This alcoholic twist is made by mixing the drink with dry ice, which lowers the temperature enough to create a frozen effect, resulting in an instantly smooth and creamy cocktail sorbet.” Also, the alcoholic content of white rum, rhuburb liqueur is not lost in the cold - hats off to the geniuses of the mixologist!

Told mum that if I can’t afford (the time) to bake cakes, I’d at least like to eat them. Low and behold enter these pretty non-chilled cakes. Non-chilled cakes are a lot easier to bake IMHO so I had certain expectations and these were homely to nibble on in a beautiful setting.
I found the rarer beetroot and ginger cake with cream cheese a well played string of “healthier” flavors.
La Veranda is a weekend or free weekday spot you’d love to find yourself at to relax or catch up with friends so I’ve observed.
