Visited the dunearn outlet! Service staff were very polite and friendly :)
Ordered the Tagliolini al Nero di Seppia con Salsa di Granchio ($19.90) which is a homemade squid-ink tagliolini with crabmeat in white wine sauce. Just a note that the picture above shows a half portion! (The chef helps to split the food into half, pretty thoughtful).
Our bad for not reading the menu properly as we expected a creamy squid ink like pasta. However the taste is pretty decent! I enjoyed the garlicky taste accompanied by the abundant amount of crabmeat. One thing to point out would be that the squid ink taste isnt very prominent though. Would rate this a 8/10.
Read my other reviews for the La Pizzaiola Speciale (pizza) and Creme Brûlée dessert!
They really live up their name of being a Roast Meat Specialist 🥰🤪
Arrived at a pretty early timing (~5pm ish) for dinner expecting little queue and plenty of roast meats available. Unfortunately only the char siew was available so you probably have to visit during lunch!!
Ordered the char siew noodles ($4.50) which came with some bok choy and chilli. The chilli was amazing with a kick to it! But more importantly, the char siew is amazing with the fatty components complimenting the meat. It was well-caramelised and juicy and made up for the fact that the siew yok/duck werent available. Thing to note is that the bowl is quite small - might not be able to fill those with big appetites!
All in all 9/10 for the value and quality. Would come here again!!! Really want to try their siew yok and roast duck too 🥺🥺
Thought it to be slightly sweet but appreciated the warm and fuzzy feeling it brought to my tummy.
Salmon was pink and tender on the insides, nice little crispy and soft bread roll went well with the sauce. Was a great eat!
If you're looking for healtheir options after all the Chinese New Year feasting, hit up this salad bar in Westgate for locally grown hydroponic vegetables and clean ingredients! Have your choice of the Western Set and Eastern Set, both priced at $6.80 or fuel up on protein with their Chicken Salad Set ($8.80) or Salmon Salad Set ($10.80), which had Burppler Fann Chong raving about "Their carbs (olive rice & truffle mash potato)" which "were very very addictive as well."

Located in China Square Central along Pickering Street, spot this cozy Japanese restaurant serving up omakase and ramen with rich, hearty broths! Only available during dinner, their 12-Course Omakase ($88) starts off with a cold dish, Salmon and Hamachi Sashimi and 3 courses of Beppu Menkan's delicacies - Grilled Pufferfish, Karrage Prawn and Egg Tofu. Follow it up with Mini Sushi of the Day, 3 courses of Beppu Signature Seafood Item, Kyushu White Chilli Ramen, Meat Dish and ending it off with their Premium Rice Box.
Formerly known as Mr. Fish & Chips in PoMo, this stall has since shifted to a quiet coffeeship hidden amongst HDB flats in Toa Payoh. Prices at $7.80 each, choose between their Lightly Battered Pacific Dory or Crispy Boneless Chicken Steak, accompanying two sides of chips, mash, rice or coleslaw. Burppler Xing Wei Chua recommends his standard order of Tilapia, who was "Glad to say that the fried fish still features a crisp beer-battered exterior; all that with the Tilapia still having its juices locked in and being flaky and sufficiently moist"

Decent brunch fare, though on the pricier side. This Brekkie of Champions is an English Breakfast with toast, baked beans, cherries on the vine, bacon, mushrooms, sausage, and eggs done your way. Quite a feast indeed! Each part of this spread is done beautifully, from the juicy tomatoes to the flavourful mushrooms and non-canned baked beans. My only gripe is that the poached eggs are quite vinegary, probably due to the way they cooked it. Do note that you have to order drinks of you use the Burpple Beyond deal, and their drinks are quite pricey as well ($5-$10).
