Hailing from Kyoto, this minimalistic-chic coffee shop has garnered a massive following for their ability to churn out consistent cups of high quality coffee. Queue for their % Arabica Single Origin Cafe Latte ($9) blended with creamy Meiji milk (opt to switch to soy, almond or oat milk for just $1). Otherwise, get their single origin Iced Americano ($7) if you wish to taste their beans in all its glory. Psst. Keep an eye out for their second outlet opening soon in Chip Bee Gardens.

I’m a huge fan of sashimi and mentaiko, so this was really an ideal choice for me. Salmon sashimi topped with mentaiko and torched to perfection!! I particularly liked how they were generous with their sashimi. But would I choose this over their signature truffle beef bowl? Probably not. Because while it’s really good, it wasn’t exceptionally amazing. Nonetheless, I still really enjoyed this

Best kept secret of Clarke Quay has gotta be this. Each trio of sourdough toast is generously topped with smashed avocado, onsen egg, and your choice of smoked salmon or chicken. The Mala Smoked Salmon {$15} is slightly on the pungent side, and definitely for those seeking an extra numbing kick with their brunch.

Look out for their daily menu on Instagram!

OUT OF THE WORLD COMFORT FOOD!!!!! One of the signatures of The Backyard Bakers is this signature pulled pork sandwich which was huge on flavours. The pulled pork is stewed for hours and the beef essence just melted in with the cheese, onions and break, it’s a party in the mouth. Highly recommended.

Twosome noodles ($9.50+) + 18pcs Fried Wanton ($8+) for lunch. After using 1-1 on burrple beyond for the noodles, it’s only about $5+! $5 for thick slabs of char siew, crunchy roast pork and 3 pcs of wanton! So worth it 😋

Don’t forget to add the crispy lard onto your noodles for the crunch!

5🌟 | Perfectly torched mentaiko atop a generous layer of cubed salmon which was so fresh. All of that combined with the nicely cooked Jap rice is just simply amazing! With burpple beyond 1-for-1, the price makes me so happy too.

I love the overall dining experience here as with the price (around $20++) you get a free flow salad & eggs buffet, complete with an egg counter you can order omelettes/scrambled eggs/any other eggs from, cold pastas and potato salad. I love the cheese-filled steak as well, it’s extremely rich and cheesy. The fried ebi is great too; overall a really wholesome and good meal that gives supreme value for the money. Would definitely recommend!

Don’t let this simple looking sandwich deceive you. From the super soft brioche and the mighty tender and beefy shavings of beef tongue, all toasted over charcoal on the konro grill topped with gribiche for a great balance in flavor and texture. This sammy is the PERFECT end to a long hard week. Le Bon Funk only does lunch on Fridays so do a bit of planning to ensure your weekend starts the best way it can! #lebonfunk #burpple
