1-for-1 with Burpple Beyond

Had a lovely dinner here with the boyfriend. We ordered the truffle mac and cheese and the chicken parmigiana with Burpple Beyond, both of which we enjoyed immensely. The mac and cheese was nicely fragranced with truffle; rich, creamy and loaded with bacon and mushrooms. The chicken cutlet was fried to perfection and topped with a delicious tangy tomato sauce and melty cheese. It came with a simple but nicely dressed side salad, fries and even a large onion ring. Both dishes were generously portioned (we’re so full now!) and really value for money. The service was also excellent—the staff were friendly, attentive and very enthusiastic, which we appreciated greatly. We really recommend dining here and would like to encourage people to support Crossing’s latest cause: for the next 6 weeks, you can donate $10 towards a meal card and the cafe will provide a hot meal for a person in need. Thank you Crossings, we’ll be back soon!

Dined here for lunch using a Burpple Beyond deal, which entitled me to 2 don for $20. Boyfriend and I both had the Wagyu Don (Large), which came with rice, roasted wagyu beef slices, an onsen egg and a drizzle of creamy sauce. The portion size was a little smaller than expected, but it was enough for us, and for $10, it was really quite impressive. The beef was really tender and delicious, the sauce was good and the rice was fluffy. We’ll be back!

My boyfriend and I dined here this evening with Burpple Beyond (1 for 1 main meals). We each had a burger with fries. Boyfriend had the Bacanater (bacon cheeseburger) I had the Cheese and Whiskers (a beef patty adorned with a quartet of cheeses: cheddar, provolone, mozzarella and monterey jack), both priced at $17.90, exclusive of a 10% service charge. It was simple and hearty fare done well, and we both enjoyed the juicy pub-style patties. The fries were also really good—fluffy on the inside and not overly salty. The atmosphere of the restaurant was good too, nicely decorated and well-lit.

The only thing we felt could be better is that the drinks were pricey (e.g. $3.50 for a can of Coke) and the only water available was sparkling water. It would have been nice to be able to have tap water or even mineral water for sale. I know it’s not difficult to bring your own water when you’re out, but I’m not sure what that would mean in terms of dining etiquette.

Nevertheless, it was a good experience and worth it because of the 1-for-1 deal. We would recommend this place to others or even come back to dine again.
