Aburi Broccoli Salad Woah! This bowl of broccoli was really beyond my expectation! The broccoli was torched to crisp. Together with the parmasan cheese and papadom sprinkled on top, which added an extra point to the dish itself. Recommended 👍🏼

Char Siu Pulled Pork Fries Is just shoestring fries mixed with nachos cheese and pulled pork. Not much of char siew taste

Roasted Salmon With Ebiko Scrambled Eggs And Edamame Mash Salmon was baked to a nice softness. Scrambled eggs was just quite normal, but the edamame mash gave this dish an extra oomp! Recommend 👍🏼

Pesto Cream Penne Very affordable pasta with satisfying portion. Lots of cheese and cream it can get pretty jelat after a while. The squid ink pasta (not pictured) is slightly salty and umami yet doesn’t have a strong squid ink smell if that’s what you are into

Crabmeat Al Granchio Combining the convenience of the location and the month long craving for pasta, I swung by quickly to have late lunch after running errands. As usual, the food is comforting and the portion is generous with chunks of crabmeat at every bite. Even when I was done with the carbs, there was enough sauce for another serving of pasta. Really generous. I have to say, over the past 5 years, the taste is consistently good and the price is still pocket friendly. Soon, we may not have the privilege of a dine in experience, but while we can, be thankful for the staff that continues to serve, the warm food that is served straight from the kitchen, the freedom to dwell outdoors.

Spaghetti Marinara from The Wicked Garlic! This dish came wrapped in baking paper. Not sure if baking it provided any more flavour than just cooking it in a pan, or if it was merely for fancy presentation. The tomato sauce was tasty, but the seafood had sand in it. Overall, didn't feel the higher price was justified compared to their more affordable pastas! Price: $19 #halfeatenblog #thewickedgarlic #pasta #seafood #burpple

Vintage Thai Dining Love the vintage vehicles and interior decor. But nothing worth commenting about the food. Quite average.

Lunch at kombi rocks! Mee goreng (wasnt spicy at all), shrimp and char siew fried rice (ok lo, the normal zhichar fried rice i get haha), and cod fish tofu (interesting dish) with iced honey citron. It was a pity that the vehicles were not nicely displayed, but was covered up or scattered along the street. (Meal bought using #favesg coupons). #burpplesg #burpple #kombirocks

Best Cheese Fries A unique fusion of Thai and Western flavours, the Loaded Cheese Fries with Thai Basil Minced Pork ($12) totally nailed it! The thick crispy fries with warm pillowy insides are doused with glorious melted cheese, and sprinkled with a flavourful topping of basil minced pork. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G

Sundubu Jiggae ($16) Located along Lorong Kilat, Kim's Family Food is well known for their kbbq & extensive korean food options within the area! Perfect for the rainy weather, their Sundubu Jiggae definitely hits the spot. This tofu stew comes with a base of kimchi stew, giving you that spicy tangy kick while it's broth is absorbed like the slices of silky tofu. Pair it with their hot pipping bowl of pearl grain rice, this comforting bowl of soup is coming to order whenever I visit!

Beef & Pork Set (Set D) Meaty goodness packed with freshness and flavours. The portions are hearty and more than sufficient to feed 2 to 3 pax along with other dishes. Their staff is very attentive and helpful in ensuring that nothing gets overcooked over the sizzling hot griddle. All we have to do was to eat at ease while they helped with the BBQ meat. Boneless Beef Short Rib + Pork Belly + Marinated Pork Collar 》$50 Price is a bit on the high side and it is best to come with a bigger group to share and split the amount. They were full house during my visit and it is recommended to make a reservation before heading over.

Sundubu Jjigae 순두부찌개 The recent rainy weather makes me crave Korean stew so much. Sundubu jjigae is made with soft tofu as a highlight ingredient submerged in a deep-red spicy stew with ingredients such as seafood, meat, mushrooms, onions, and vegetables. My soft beancurd soup arrived sizzling hot chock full of ingredients and mildly spicy with seafood sweetness. The texture is on the light side but still comforting, nutritious-tasting and slurp-worthy 》$15

Cajun Chicken Aglio Olio ($14.90) If you're looking for a Muslim-establishment that serves up decent pasta, I am... cafe has got your back! One of the OG cafes in the area, I am... serves up simple, yet hearty dishes, ranging from pastas, to burgers and many more! With #BurppleBeyond, we were only able to select from the pasta section & went for the Cajun Chicken Aglio Olio. This dish packed a punch with their Cajun seasoning but did not overpower the entire dish. The spaghetti was lightly tossed in olive oil, and topped with a grilled Cajun chicken-a simple yet tough dish to master.

Penne Pesto Pasta ($15.90) Located at the entrance (from North Bridge Road) of Haji Lane, I am... cafe can be easily spotted from afar with it's large signage and Alfresco-like dining space. As a Muslim-owned establishment, their dishes are made accessible to more cafe-goers who enjoys visiting this area! An early lunch meant that we could grab a seat at this popular cafe and we ordered the Penne Pesto Pasta ($15.90). It comes with perfectly booked penne served with a large portion of grilled chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, olives and pesto herbs. The chicken was pre-shredded, but still retained some moisture to ensure that it's tender. The pesto was well-balanced without being too salty and the sun-dried tomatoes added a nice sour tang to the dish. Overall, a satisfying dish to re-order when I visit! Thankfully with #BurppleBeyond, we got this at 1 for 1, so my pasta was half the price, definitely worth it!

Good For Groups! Pastas and Burgers all taste super good! I recommend Cajun Chicken and Chicken pesto if you're getting the 1-for-1deal. They have several seating for groups of 4-6.

Today marks the last day of operation of Loysel's toy! Finally met up with @crystal_wee & @jolenekcw after like so so long. I remember the first time I came here was with @melinda_cereal when we are both poly year 2 I think? That's when I started to cafe hop more often. Even though this place is inaccessible but its my favourite hide out spot during internship. This little spot is the place where caught my eye when I was here the first time and I will certainly miss this place #loyselstoy #burpple

Can't decide between scrambled eggs and poached eggs all the time? Then you definitely have to get your hands on this! Fuji Melt Sandwich ($12) was a special item of that day which I've chanced upon on Deepavali (they should seriously consider it to be on their menu 😍) Toasted Brioche, ham then topped with both scrambled and poached egg (!!!) and a torched cheese right smack on top! WHUTTT WHUT WHUT WHUTTTT!! There! Your perfect brunch combination! And.... finally paired it off with their speciality coffee to really start your weekends well!

Turkish Eggs We didnt know what we should order from penny uni tbh and literally scroll thru burrple. Decided to order turkish eggs ($14) but felt disappointed on soft boiled egg 😅 and my friend said sourdough bread slightly hard to chew thru. I literally removed spicy sauce from the dish as I didn't really take spicy lol.

Matcha Latte & Spiked Muddy I felt that matcha latte ($7.50) quite sweet (a bit matcha taste) and milky, need to shake it before drinking as matcha powder didn't just dissolved it off that fast. Someone suggested for spiked muddy ($7) and taste not bad and not that acidic taste for coffee.

Halal cafe with great service As for the Classic Eggs Ben, you can choose between smoked salmon or turkey ham (we highly recommend the salmon) to go with their poached eggs, hollandaise sauce and rosemary lemon sourdough. The poached egg was done to perfection and splitted gracefully when we cut it open. The hollandaise sauce was also sweet and umami, a perfect complement to the sourdough which may be otherwise hard to have on its own. The bread was quite toasted and crunchy but I would have preferred it to be fluffier and soft. Read more at: kopiwaffles.com/penny-university-halal-cafe-east-coast/

Plain Ole Chocolate From Creamier Let’s indulge a plain ole chocolate ice cream cone and get blown away by its rich, dark, and smooth flavour. The texture is creamy and velvety, coating the taste buds with chocolatey goodness. The best part? It's only $4.90! What a steal for such high-quality handcrafted ice cream. Note: Contains dairy, so not suitable for those with dietary restrictions.

Butterscotch almond Buttery rich with a caramel flavour, enjoyed the roasted almond bits within which gave a fragrant nuttiness. [5.5/10]

Hokey pokey Vanilla base mixed with honeycomb crumbs coated with white chocolate adding a crunch though sweetness was rather overpowering, very creamy and melted quickly. [5/10]
