My second visit which i think its better vs the previous. We spent $24 for 2 set meal includes 2 viet coffee with Burple Beyond. I love the viet beef gyoza the most.
The hot chocolate was good. The caramel latte could do with more caramel, as it tasted like a flat white, which is honestly fine as well as it tasted nice. Both drinks were pretty standard.
We enjoyed our hot drinks in the comfort of the second floor of a cozy little cafe, overlooking the roads.
We got this as part of the Pastry + Coffee deal - you can pick any drink from the Coffee section of the menu. As for the pastries, you can choose between carrot cake, brownie, or quiche. We paid a total of $13.20 for 2 pastries and 2 cups of coffee.
I’ve had this a few times and it has never disappointed! The chicken is tender and juicy and very tasty. I also enjoyed the BBQ beans. For $9, I think the amount of chicken, fries, and sides were pretty generous.
Burrple deal is only valid for one dish - mixed grill. Chicken was tender, pork was tough. Overall, average.
@peperonipizzeria doesn’t just do perfect pizza pies, they craft a charming Calamari Fritti as well, for the relatively reasonable price for $14++. Fourteen bucks for an appetiser is about right, and the sumptuous squid certainly warrants that price tag & possibly a little more.⠀
⠀
The felicitously fresh, snappy squid is coated in a beautiful batter that forms a stunningly crispy shell, which forms a perfect yin/yang contrast with the tender yet compellingly chewy squid. It’s salted superbly, but the sharp lemon mayonnaise & the mildly spicy arrabbiata sauce exponentially elevates this otherwise simple appetiser. The lemon mayo adds a redolent richness to the entire affair that’s kept in check by a zing from the zest of the lemon, while the mildly spicy arrabbiata adds a subtle, savoury spiciness to the proceedings.⠀
⠀
In summary: get the calamari at Peperoni Pizzeria. Thank me later in the form of US legal tender hundred dollar bills later. What can I say except you’re welcome.
@peperonipizzeria? It’s been eighty four years...okay, it may not have been that long, but it’s been literal years since I last paid a visit to this pizza chain that’s frequented by the upper crust of pie society (see what I did there?)⠀
⠀
I was pretty puffed to discover that they’d kept their trademark half & half pizzas around, and I went with the double trouble of chicken truffle & portobello on a large 12 inch pie base ($30++). The chicken roulades on the chicken truffle half were almost as magnificently moist & tantalisingly tender as I remember it with just a slight dip in quality. The aroma of truffle from the black truffle dressing was terrifically tantalising, and one smells the pizza before one even lays eyes on it.⠀
⠀
Even though it was most definitely truffle oil as opposed to the real thing, the heady fragrance leased its pleasant pungency to the mildly flavoured chicken, the stunningly sweet sautéed onions, and the herbaceous baby spinach. As for the other half of the pizza, it’s an extremely well executed mushroom pizza that’s been lubed up with more (yes, MOAR) truffle oil for extra pizzazz. Sure, the egg was effectively a hard baked egg, but you’ll still catch me saying “hell yeah brother” to the portobello pizza.⠀
⠀
Now, those tasty toppings wouldn’t mean jack if the pizza base was a disgrace, but believe me folks, Peperoni has one of the best pie bases in town, which cements their rightful role in the upper crust of Singapore’s pizza circuit. The dough is tremendously thin & airy, and the centre of it all is pleasurably pliant while the crust is creditably crispy with a comely char on it. Yeah, I’ll just let the picture speak for itself.⠀
⠀
Peperoni may have misspelled their brand name, but when they slide out picturesque pizzas this piquant, nobody cares fam. These big pizza pies hit your eye like the moon, and that’s amore.
Apart from the signature Gula Melaka Cold Brew ($4.50), we got a try of the Lychee and Peach Teas. Similarly, these were generally on the sweeter end, though it was nice that it came with bits of fruits.

Even though I’m not much a coffee person, the gula melaka cold brew was pretty smooth albeit quite sweet - I’d imagine it would work well if you’re looking to douse a bit of the heat from their mains.
