Food and Restaurants in Tanjong Pagar

Attended my first Burpple Eatup (woohoo!) recently and I had the chance to feast on 3 variations of the 4-Course Set Meal ($60++) from Coriander Leaf Grill🤤. For appetisers, the Falafel (fried chickpea patties) goes well with the spiced tahini yoghurt while the Paneer Shashlik (fresh cheese marinated in spices and grilled in a tandoor) reminds me of a well-seasoned grilled tofu. But the star of the night would have to be the Charcoal Grilled Red Snapper Fillet with Green Chilli Pesto, Wok Fried Eggplant and Steamed Rice - the fish is fresh and moist (love the grilled skin!) and the eggplant is really delicious. The Angus Striploin Steak with Wakame Butter is also grilled till medium rare perfection, and turned out to be juicy and flavourful. Although the meal is on the pricier side, there is a one-for-one deal on Burpple Beyond:)! Thank you Burpple and Coriander Leaf Grill for the lovely dinner!

I did not have very high expectations of Koryori Hayashi (#01-11), the humble looking Japanese stall on the 1st storey of Amoy Street Food Centre. So
imagine my surprise when the Mentaiko Pasta ($7.50) turned out to be packed with umami and really delicious❤️ A generous dollop of Mentaiko is added to the pasta and I like that the sauce is creamy and flavourful, but not jelat:) So good!

What u get for $22.30!

Pardon the terrible lighting in this photo. It looked better in real life for sure! Their linguine aglio olio came with prawns, ikura and seaweed. The sauce was more of broth take on aglio olio - a little more soupy than oily, if that makes sense? Still not bad nonetheless.

Price: $20 (get 1-for-1 on @burpple beyond!) #halfeatenblog #philosophy #cafe #pasta #seafood #prawn #burpple #burpplebeyond

Ordered the le goma & c3 cheesecake. Cakes are light & fluffy, the interior of the cake is really quaint & pretty too. 👍🏻

LMushroom Trio, Mozzarella. Balsamic, Arugula, Caramelised Onions, Aioli & Rye Bread 》$16

PBD nailed it! This was one of the better melts out there. It comes with a good variety of shrooms that paired perfectly with those caramelised onions and gooey, creamy melted cheese.

We got to try food served from three different four-course set menus. I especially enjoyed the food from set menu B which consists of salt and pepper squid, falafel with spiced tahini yogurt, coriander oil and harissa sauce, charcoal grilled red snapper fillet with green chilli pesto, wok fried eggplant and steamed rice. There was also avocado ice cream with gula melaka sago for dessert but it wasn’t really my type of dessert as the textures and flavours didn’t really agree with me. Each set menu is priced at $60++ but they are one for one with #burpplebeyond yay! Anyway if you haven’t gotten Burpple Beyond yet, you can use my referral link (in bio) so to get 20% off your burpple beyond plan and you just pay $55.20 for the entire year!

Thank you @corianderleafgrill for having us and thank you @burpple for the invite! 😊

I didn’t know what flavour each kueh was until I took a bite. That’s the surprise!

The multitude of ingredients in the complex concoction and the beef tongue cumulated into an explosion of fascinating flavours and textures.
