Guiding you to good food & best restaurants in Singapore

Pretty excited for the return of this one — possibly one of my favourites when it comes to the range of limited-time only soft serve that they have to offer. Really liked how the consistency of this particular flavour of soft serve is fairly different to the others; somehow holding up to the climate better given how it does not seem to melt so easily, yet carrying a pretty evident but subtle hint of sweetness amidst the earthiness of sweet potato without an aftertaste — all contained in a crisp waffle cone. Something which I would most certainly go for whenever it comes back on the menu.

Ordered the beef rice set as recommended by the staff (for a non-chilli go-er, else the mala flavour was recommended)

Portion was average - i’d say the proportion of beef to bell peppers was 35-65? Pretty generous amount of meat!

However, found it a little salty. Taste-wise pretty average, 6/10, not particularly yummy.

The set came with a tiny bowl of soup (smaller than the complimentary soup you get when ordering chicken rice), thus size was pretty disappointing. There was a side dish - which I chose tofu salad (not to my surprise, pretty average again)

honestly didn’t expect much, I mean it was a good deal for 2 sets of meal! Go for it if you’re not too picky with food. Would visit again for the price & the vast menu! Hope to find something more pleasing :)

I think I’ve eaten this at least ten times over the past three years, no kidding. Anything at La Pizzaiola is great, but I especially love the carbonara- there is a bite that comes with fettuccine and the rich creamy sauce is offset by pancetta. You’ll be scraping the plate.

Prior to visiting I’d read reviews about the roll being a little small & stingy - they were right, but since we’re eating lobster in Singapore, I’d say the price point is very decent with the Burpple one for one deal.

We tried the four top flavors- original, Connecticut, cheesy and mentaiko. If you like eating bland lobster, the original is for you- if not, the $2 top up for something more savoury works well in your tastebuds’ favour. Skip the cheese- it cheapens your seafood.

If you notice my thumb next to the slice of Swedish bread, you’ll realize just how small this portion is. (Also, my hands are tiny.) For $16 - even though there was no service charge and GST - this was really not okay.

Bread was toasted to the point that my lunch bud and I couldn’t cut through it. This dish is filed under “sandwiches” and it really just is that- smoked salmon, cheese-yogurt, and a bit of garnish, nothing more.

Having been to a couple of BTK outlets, I must say the new one at Century Square has the cheapest price point prolly cos of its heartland location!

While the main egg was undercooked (egg whites still disturbingly clear and runny), taste was great and generous for the price. This dish fed three girls easily.

The Feather Blade Steak [$21] is a secondary cut of meat and it unfortunately tastes like it was not picked first for a reason. Personally it could use a more severe sear to give it more flavour as the only flavour that’s coming from the meat is an oddly metallic liver like aftertaste that’s characteristic of frozen beef. I doubt that it’s frozen as the texture was not indicative of frozen beef and the livery taste can be attributed to the flat iron cut which contains more iron. So this is not particularly a jab at the handling of the beef, it was just unexpected. It was also a workout to eat.

The sides on the other hand were really great. The free popcorn was intensely buttery and truly the most memorable dish on the table. The creamed spinach [$7] was solid as well; I have yet to see an establishment mess up creamed spinach. The Roasted Potatoes w Beef Fat and Siracha Mayo [$7] was one to order as well. On first glance it looks almost too charred but the colour was not indicative of its taste. Honestly the beef fat wasn’t too present but considering the heady aroma of the buttery popcorn w the steak on the table, it didn’t need to be.

We ordered 2 different sauces to go w the beef. The Red Wine Sauce [$2] held its own and definitely imparted a sweet shalloty flavour to the steak, highly recommended as the steak gets one dimensional after the first few pieces. The Horseradish Cream [$2] was interesting, having the texture of whipped cream as opposed to a cream sauce. Flavour wise, it provides a cool milky note to the steak but frankly w the popcorn being the dairy heavyweight champ of the table, I would rather opt for perhaps a more piquant sauce.

The total bill was $70 for 2 pax, no drinks involved. Popcorn was free for the table. We had 2 steaks and 2 sides. If you’re in the area and craving some steak and buttery popcorn without wanting to break the bank, sure, give The Feather Blade a visit. They obviously have skill and passion, perhaps the cut of meat was just inherently subpar so just manage your expectations as you’re after all paying $21 for a decent portion of steak.
