Welcome to Bedok Reservoir.

Just had lunch nearby, and was searching for a place using burpple search nearby function to look for desserts and chanced upon Marie Lapis Cafe that was near where we had lunch.

The store owners were ultra friendly, this and the ambience of the cafe made us feel very welcomed and homely.

We proceeded to order their kueh lapis and their unique lapis waffle.

1) the lapis waffle was crispy. And tasted distinctly like kueh lapis. Their ice cream flavours also nonya style flavours, such as chendol, ondeh ondeh, mua chee etc etc.

2) kueh lapis was buttery and soft. Tasted very good. Highly recommended.

Only found out while waiting for our food, that the Google reviews of this place is astonishingly high at 4.8/5. And saw alot of good reviews for their Peranakan Food like mee siam and rendang. So have earmarked to return here again to try those.

Tried the crab Mac&cheese. They are quite generous with the crab meat and bacon sides but i thought bacon was a little too salty. The mac&cheese is a little jelat and wouldn’t get it again for my own. But worth a try - would recommend sharing this.
Also got the earl grey milk tea. Love this flavour of milk tea and it’s not too sweet.

Still think it’s pretty good burpple deal!

Tried the Tom yum seafood pasta and the unagi aglio olio.
Honestly like the pasta here. Pretty ok and filling, with the deal it’s pretty worth

💸: Around $65 for 4 pastas and 4 drinks which is pretty great deal.

Not bad. A little on the pricy side as the size of the waffle is smaller than usual kind. But overall not bad!

Using Burpple 1 for 1. Portion generous!! Food good too, Service staff friendly too.. Woulld recommend!!

Fancy some old school western delights? This is one place to get some quality affordable western fare! I had the mixed grill ($7) which had a piece of grilled chicken, a piece of grilled pork chop and a piece of fried fish cutlet and they were pretty good!

The fried fish cutlet stole the show as we loved the crispy light batter and the flaky succulent meat within. The chicken was tender, and had the old school peppery taste, due to the brown sauce it was drenched with. The pork chop was a little too tough, but still decent.

As for the sides, the garlic rice was fantastic as it was fluffy and extremely flavourful from the amount of garlic within the rice. Really addictive!

I can really see myself coming back here frequently if I live nearby. Will be back again!

Overall Rating: 6.5/10⭐️
Items:
Roasted Pistachio ice cream scoop
Had high expectations for roasted pistachio, however it fell short as the flavour was just mild and only a tinge of pistachio could be tasted as compared to other stores.

Yogurt Speculoos scoop
The yogurt speculoos was exactly as expected, similar to what you would expect at smööy, or yoguru for the yogurt texture and taste, along with speculoos bits in it.

Waffle ($5.80)
The waffle was not very big, and we recommend one person having one each, as it was not enough for two! For those who enjoy airy and crispy waffles (not dense at all), this would be your go-to waffle! However, we felt that the waffle was too airy to our liking, and 2 scoops of ice cream was too much for one waffle.

Damage: $15.20 (before 30% burpple beyond)

Overall, this place would be nice for those who stay nearby as it serves decent ice cream & waffle, especially if you have burrple beyond which makes it reasonably prices, else, the waffle may feel a little pricey for the size!

Ultimate guilty pleasure. Fragrant coconut rice that’s a good balance of moist and taste of coconut. Nice chilli and super juicy chicken wings. The ingredients were all hot, and you can see the stall constantly making new batches of food. A wide range of ingredients to choose from so you can add as many as you wish. Long queues especially in the morning, but worth the queue to quell a craving.

I wasn't even hungry to begin with, but gave this place a try with my buddy. Food was so good I finished everything instinctively. We had the Creamy Chicken Tom Yum Pasta and the Pork Marinara Pasta. The sauce bases were clearly made from scratch, the fettucine was al dente...hence the empty plates.

10/10 would come back and eat even if no Burpple Beyond deal.

On another note, bud says it's 8/10. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Check it out for yourself!

And it's pretty empty on a weekday evening!

I have been here countless number of times and it has never once disappointed me. It’s a very pretty bar/restaurant with vintage posters over the walls.

The food is absolutely amazing for the price. 4 pax ate well for about $90 which is very reasonable considering we ordered more than one dish each. My favourites are the chicken quesadillas, bacon and shrimp aglio olio.

It would be better to make a reservation on fridays or weekends as it gets quite packed. They have outdoor and indoor seating.

Mee rebus is sold out at 11am on a weekday, quite ridiculous

Beef was tough

Curry ckn was alright, the sauce was good but not mind-blowing

Cuttlefish was abit tough and quite spicy

Sambal goreng was surprisingly quite mild

Overall it's alright, worth a try if you're in the area. Also thr queue gets crazy so only if you avoid peak hours(before 11)
