With a passion for good burgers, the two “blur” guys began working on a menu of gourmet burgers and accidentally stumbled upon a taste that blew them away. They may call themselves blur, but they certainly aren't blur when it comes to their gourmet burgers.
@twoblurguys specialises in gourmet American style burgers. Though their menu boasts a plethora of gourmet burgers, they don’t lose focus on the star of the dish - the beef patty, allowing it’s natural juicy and succulent taste to shine.
If you’re feeling fancy, get the 𝐅𝐨𝐢𝐞 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐬 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐫 ($𝟐𝟖.𝟗𝟎) which features 2 pieces of soft and delicate foie gras lying atop the beef patty. In comparison to the flavors of the beef patty, the foie gras taste was pretty mild, but I love the added melty texture and buttery flavor to the already satisfying burger.
I was pretty looking forward to the 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐟𝐟𝐥𝐞 𝐄𝐠𝐠 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐫 ($𝟏𝟔.𝟗𝟎) which comes smothered with a truffle egg. However, this burger was insipid of truffle flavor as I could hardly make out any truffle taste. Despite the lack of truffle flavor, it still makes a good old classic burger.
Located in a small cosy corner in Jalan Besar, give @twoblurguys a go if you’re up some good old fashioned burgers!

A bowlful of frozen sunshine ❄ blended with mangoes 🥭, passionfruit, apples 🍎, lemons & medjool dates, Mango Passion was such a delightful tropical flavour! 👍🏻
Tried the Squid ink chitarra for a weekday dinner. Portion was good and the pasta was al dente :) One of the rarer places serving authentic handmade pasta, would definitely recommend!
Duck Rice ($19 for half duck)
⭐️ 3.5/5 ⭐️
This stall had the longest queue on a weekend afternoon, so we joined because well, we too love a good plate of duck rice 😁 Sadly, this was thoroughly average and actually quite forgettable. The duck, whilst expertly sliced and nicely played, was pretty tough and did not absorb the braising sauce. The sauce itself was a little thin and lacked any notable complexity. Had also hoped that they would serve yam rice but it was just plain white rice. Overall, it’s an alright plate, but we don’t quite understand the perpetuallly long queue.

Ayam buah keluak ($24) - the buah keluak pieces were pretty big and stewed well but the sauce lacked depth. Chicken could have been more tender

Babi Pong Tay ($16)
Ayam buah keluak ($24)
Beef rendang ($22)
Chap chye ($15)
Overall ⭐️ 3.5/5 ⭐️
🍴Blue Ginger opened their second outlet at Great World City and we thought to give it a try since there was 1-1 burpple vouchers (applicable for vegetables, meats, and starters). Overall, we thought that the dishes were a little oily and all the meats (chicken, pork, beef) were quite tough and chewy, but the sauces were decently good. Dark horse of the meal was the free flow tangy achar!
If we had to rank the proteins, we would say: first, the babi pongtay with its savoury yet slightly sweet and overall moreish sauce. Second, the buah keluak pieces were pretty big and stewed well, although the sauce lacked depth. The beef rendang was the least impressive - the sauce was quite lemak, particularly oily, and could do with punchier spices for added complexity.
The chap chye was soft and flavoursome enough - pretty good rendition as a compliment to the other dishes.

We would also recommend their 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐲 𝐥𝐚𝐥𝐚 (clams) and 𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐤𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐤𝐨𝐧𝐠. They do their sauces exceptionally well here and these were some of the best renditions of these classic dishes that we’ve had.
