Burpple Beyond

TLL (The Lobby Lounge) serves up a straightforward high tea, at $44++ for 2 pax, thanks to Burpple Beyond.

I particular enjoyed the five spiced kurobuta pork ngoh hiang with mango salsa and lemon scones (strawberry jam was delish). My only gripe was there was more sweets than savoury for a peranakan take- and it may be a tad too much for a sweet tooth like me.

Without breaking the bank, I’ll pretty sure I’ll return again. And who knows, the menu might have some slight tweaks!

Elixir does one of a better scrambles, infused nicely with truffle shavings. No words for prosciutto cause, it’s self explanatory good on its own. Though the portion may seem small on the first impressions, the brioche and eggs it leaves me belly full.

Ooh, they do good coffees too.

Returning at Seventh, who blew me away at their rendition of Beef Hor Fun, I tried their Cod Fish variation this time. It was gooood (and healthier too!)

Note: My preference was to ask for less salt which was more suited for my palate. Their earlier dish was a tad heavy on sodium.

I love Soondubu Chigae and very typically, have a preference for homemade tofu. It is way different from the standard silken tofu normally used in restaurants. SBCD serves a good one, and I had it in Very Spicy. Honestly, it isn’t too spicy for me!

If you’re craving for a hearty stew, SCBD Tofu House or Bornga are my top 2 and only pick to go to.

It’s always a challenge to find a good handmade pasta. I’m glad Eleven Strands does this well, where pasta is cooked al dente and retains its bite with a slight chew.

Prawns were fresh and their pesto sauce was not too cloying, leaving it a good balance of pasta and sauce ratio. Noted some may find it a tad too oily (well, it’s pesto eh?)

Do make reservations in advance to avoid a wait during peak hours!

Mazesoba (Dry Ramen) located at the corner of Square 2, Level 2 finds itself popular with hungry diners waiting in queue.

Noodles were springy and diners can choose to either have regular (1x) or large (1.5x) at the same price. Karaage were fried just right, moist and flavourful without being greasy.

I’ll be back again, especially so with Burpple Beyond’s 1 for 1 promo.

An authentic Peruvian restaurant specialising in ceviche (love!)

Try Ceviche Clasico for the classic or restaurant’s modern spin, Ceviche Tono. Both dishes delivers, a well balanced dish of sweetness, freshness and a sour tang. My personal preference would be the latter.

Even better when it’s on Burpple Beyond!

Simplified English: Prawn & Sausage Pasta la

If you’re refined and love tongue twisters, order it by name instead of pointing ‘this one’.

Seafood Marinara is your thing? You’ll love this. Fresh garlic prawns and a well balanced house-made napolitana sauce is perfecto. Orecchiette was a great pairing as each little dome pasta captures the sauce beautifully.

Ambience of Cafe Milligram was lovely and homely with its open kitchen concept and Scandinavian furnishings. Its a great place for team lunches too!

Everything’s better with Burpple Beyond 😉
