A standard Eggs Benedict but the Hollandaise sauce was pretty minimal and the poached egg was slightly overcooked, leading to quite a dry dish. We think their cakes are much better than their mains. Fortunately there’s the Burpple 1-for-1 Brunch deal so it made the food a lot more reasonably priced.

We visited on a Sunday afternoon and the place wasn’t too crowded. The staff were friendly and the overall atmosphere of the cafe was warm and cozy.

Pretty standard breakfast set - each element was executed well. Nothing amazing or special though.

Honestly $28 seems quite high of a price tag for what’s actually on the plate, though there is no additional GST or service charge, which was a pleasant surprise. We used the Burpple 1-for-1 Brunch deal so it made it more reasonably priced.

Pretty yummy sandwiches here, a little bit towards the smaller side but alright if you’re not too hungry or if you’re planning to get some sides.

The Kurobuta Bacon was thin and crispy, perfect with the guacamole. The furikake aioli was a nice fusion touch. Along with the sunny side egg (there’s just something so satisfying about eggs in sandwiches), roasted pickled tomatoes and greens, the ingredients in this sandwich make it a great brunch pick.

The Sammies here are made with freshly baked Shokupan bread, which was soft and fluffy. I personally would’ve preferred if the bread slices were slightly thicker because well, I love bread!

The Burpple 1-for-1 deal made the sandwich quite an okay deal, otherwise I would’ve thought that the size of the sandwich is pretty small for its price. Wouldn’t get it on its own definitely. A pity there’s only one deal on Burpple Beyond for Sammies!

We visited on a weekend morning and it wasn’t too busy. There’s quite a bit of seating space on the second floor.

The tonkatsu was tender and juicy, went really well with the teriyaki mustard for some savoury zing. The pickled golden pear and greens balanced all the flavours in the sandwich out and added a refreshing crunch too. The Gouda cheese was a nice addition but it wasn’t melted in our sandwich which I found was a bit wasted - it was just a solid slice (on the menu it’s indicated that it’s supposed to be melted). Melted cheese in sandwiches is kinda the cherry on top for me.

I found a small piece of broken plastic in my dish towards the end of my meal. Not sure if I just ingested a bowl of melted plastic. It’s a safety issue, so I just wanted to put it out here.

I nicely told the staff about it - and they told me that I didn’t need to use the Burpple 1-for-1 deal as compensation, since this dish would be free. Don’t really understand how that’s a compensation since the dish was going to be free anyway with the deal. 😅 I verbalised that there was no difference, but no alternatives were offered. Didn’t want to kick up a big fuss since there was a family with children beside our table, so I left it, and here I am writing a negative review.

I thought the situation could’ve been handled better - it was slightly unpleasant that they spoke as if their compensation was great, when it didn’t make a difference to me at all. Food was actually okay if not on the pricier side, but I guess after this experience I don’t have the best impression of how this restaurant is ran.

Quite a standard horfun dish, I would say you can’t really taste much claypot or wok hey in it, felt more like it was placed in the claypot just for presentation. We also got the Cantonese Seafood Sang Mee and then realised that the sauce for both dishes is exactly the same. 😂 I think it’s alright for the price with the 1-for-1 deal.

Visited on a weekend evening - wasn’t too crowded and we managed to get a seat for two pretty easily. Service was fine. We used the Burpple 1-for-1 deal here so the price was a lot more reasonable than we were willing to pay for such food. If you are using this deal, do note that there is GST and service charge based on both dishes purchased instead of just one.

The crispy noodles were quite flour-y and tasteless. Luckily the seafood sauce was flavourful enough to make up for it! There were 2 prawns, 2 squid rings, and 2 slices of fish that came with the seafood sauce. Probably wouldn’t order this dish again next time.

Marinated Salmon and Tuna Sashimi, Tobiko as well as the Ikura were all fresh. Quite a filling bowl, but satisfying. Pretty worth it. We also got the mentaiko salmon bowl that was equally satisfying though it had a little too much mayonnaise for my personal liking - fans of mayonnaise will rejoice though.

We visited on a Friday evening and the indoor seating was all taken up by reservations, leaving us with the outdoor seating. Service was pretty good, which gave us a good impression of our overall dining experience. The toilets were a little difficult to find but that’s the only downside.

A really good cheeseburger - but in a sandwich! Why have burger buns when you can have grilled cheese sourdough? The Blackmore wagyu patty was juicy, very tasty with the pastrami jam, garlic aioli and cucumber pickles. Very classic cheeseburger ingredients and executed well in this sandwich. Overall a good sandwich, slightly pricey but it was delicious so I’ll take that.

Visited on a public holiday and at 11am, their tater tots were already out of stock! This eliminated many of their breakfast options, sadly. Would return again earlier to try their other options.

So glad my friend and I shared the sandwiches at this place, because they are really generous with the meat! The smoked pastrami brisket was just overflowing in between the slices of caraway rye sourdough toast, it wasn’t too salty on its own but the sheer amount of it in the sandwich made it quite so, along with the provolone cheese. Fortunately there was sauerkraut and Russian dressing to cut through the salty and savoury notes.

Overall a very tasty sandwich, would recommend to share otherwise the pastrami brisket can get quite overwhelming. Slightly pricey for a sandwich, but the amount of meat and tastiness of the dish kinda makes up for its price.

Thin and crispy house bacon with bacon jam, accompanied by two fried eggs and tomato relish. Placing everything delicious about a breakfast in between two crunchy slices of toast. Bacon fans will rejoice!

Enjoy this for 30% off with the Burpple Beyond deal, making this sumptuous breakfast kinder to your wallet.

We visited on a Saturday morning and it was crowded, filled with large groups of cyclists. Would recommend coming earlier to avoid queues and crowds!

12” thin crust pizza, topped with honey baked ham, feta cheese, wild rocket salad, tomato concasse, and a sunny side up smack in the middle of it all. I thought the pizza was delicious - with a combination of ingredients like that it’s hard to go wrong. It was just nice in terms of portion size, my friend and I shared it as we weren’t feeling too hungry during lunch. She liked this pizza too!

Do note that they do not serve tap water here - you’d have to buy bottled mineral water for $2 if you wanted some.

Cafe was spacious yet cozy, made for a nice afternoon lunch venue.
