Duck Confit ($18) Meat was very tender that it fell off the bone. I loved the sauce as well. Tasted citrusy to me. Mushrooms that were underneath were huge and juicy. Mashed potato complemented the duck very well. At $18, it’s quite pricey and so the 1-1 deal under Burpple beyond made it very worth.

Bak Chor Hey Pasta Fave dish at boufe! Juicy succulent prawns and sufficient gravy on pasta!

Super Satisfying Lu Rou Fan Once again, the "minced meat" that you see in this dish is actually plant based and yet it tastes equally as delicious as the traditional dish which hailed from Taiwan. I like how the addition of beancurd, oyster mushrooms and broccoli made it more wholesome.

Salmon Grain My photo doesn't do justice. One bite of this salmon and it was so flavorful! The salmon is miso-infused, served with brown rice and lotus root pickles. Never a fan of pickles, this one really opens up the tastebud.

Pretty Place With Decent Food Food was refined and service was attentive. The crabmeat pasta was unusual and I enjoyed it the most out of the meal. Had a lot of fun taking pictures around the cafe and the lobby coz of its design! Modern and chic. Rating: 3.5/5 #eatwithnchenggg

Avocado on Toast ($16++) The millennials’ favourite breakfast dish - avocado on toast. 🥑🥚🥖Clan Cafe does a great but pricey version of it. Smashed avocado, two poached eggs (additional $3++) roasted cherry tomatoes and rockets on sourdough. Sounds simple but the combination is on point. Squeeze some lemon if you like a sour flavour profile.

Truffle mac and cheese One of the sweeter and better mac and cheese! Also ordered the truffle fries and passion oolong hot tea that were both great too! Overall a good experience at Crossings cafe w friendly service by the staff!

Crossings Cafe 18 Dec’21, Sat🌤 📍Crossings Cafe - Pan-seared Barramundi🐟 - Truffle Fries🍟 - Flat White☕️ The barramundi is pretty good, crispy skin and tender flesh like cooked to perfection~ Truffle fries, the taste you and I know but this is a tad oily I would say… Flat white is quite decent, taste a little like medium roasted, nutty finish… Overall, generous portion and quite value-for-money! Their services can get a bit slow (half of their employees are special needs persons), but for a good cause (their profit goes to charity), wouldn’t mind coming back again~ Damage: $27.78 incl. of svc charge & GST

Rainy Morning Brekkie Steak was sous vide before being seared. Almost melts in the mouth. A little more charring will be nice. Lovely steak. Pickled red onions adds an interesting taste to the steak. Pretty filling.

Not Bad The char shao came highly recommended but I felt that it was a tad dry even though the seasoning was good. Loved the wantons in XO sauce though! Delightfully crispy and the springy filling was nicely seasoned. Sauce was yummy too! Noodles were al dente but the seasoning was very light (add chilli to amp up the flavour)! The free flow soup was also a bit salty btw.

Atas wanton mee with pork belly, wanton and more. Beautifully made char siew and pork belly 😋. There are two kinds of people - those who like their wanton mee with thin noodles (you mian) and those who like it a little thicker. We are starting to see more shops serving up wanton mee with springy, chewy and thicker noodles such as Eng's and Wanton Seng. Personally, both are nice as long as the noodles is Q. Thanks @burpplebeyondfans For the 1 for 1 deal!. Where is your favourite wanton mee store?. - 📍Seng's Noodles Bar 52 Amoy Street Nearest MRT: Telok Ayer (DTL), Tanjong Pagar (EWL)

Radish Cake The menu described it to be a lot better than it tasted. The radish are hidden underneath the eggs but it was too mushy than the normal radish cake which made eating it a little gelak after a while. We had the roast pork and the Sichuan dumplings as well. The roast pork is a must have, too busy eating that no picture was taken 🙈

Mango Berry Sunset [$20] Created in collaboration with Tanqueray, this cocktail was a very bright concoction, both visually and in taste, with quite a sweet-tasting mix of Tanqueray London Dry, Raspberry Puree, Lemon Juice and Mango.

Donut Balls [$15] We had the house-made Donut Balls for dessert. They are freshly fried on order and comes with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, crumbles, blueberries and a sweet blueberry date compote. The outmost layer of each ball had a pretty nice crunch, but it was unfortunately too dense and doughy past that.

Veggie Puttanesca Pizza [$22] The Veggie Puttanesca Pizza is a new seasonal main, featuring an all-vegetable assortment of toppings on a base decked with puttanesca sauce. It includes Kalamata olives, capsicum, Roma tomatoes, button mushrooms, yellow onions and arugula. Not a huge fan of the pizza base, as it was a little more dry and biscuity.

Amazing 3 Course Dinner Set The 3 course dinner set was amazing and super value for money with burpple 1-for-1 ($60). Started with the Spanish octopus which was perfectly cooked. We got the lamb shank and pork for mains. There was also a complimentary birthday dessert on top of the 2 desserts we alr have. Overall it was a pleasant experience as we had a very hearty meal.

Kopi 'O' Dessert I went to Porta a month ago, but his dessert sometimes still will pop in my mind...very addictive dessert😆

3 Course Meal @ $62 (Burpple 1 For 1) We had fried oysters and Spanish octopus for our appetizers, followed by porta burger and fillet mignon for our mains. We ended off the night with our desserts - Pecan cake with ice cream and Black Forest. They gave us an complimentary birthday cake as it was my friend birthday! The service was really great and the ambience is chill. This place is located in Park Hotel, it is overall great for a nights out! With the deal, it was double the worth! Price: $62 for 2 pax Rating: 7/10

Hojicha Pate A Choux Hojicha Pate A Choux I didn't expected that their hojicha to be so good and also impressed by their strong roasted tea taste depends on their cream puff even though they are under matcha speciality shop. I also highly recommended to try this instead of matcha flavour. I also did saw black seasame (kurogama) flavour also and didn't sell much on the display.

Original Mazesoba With Char Siew | $15.80++ Ramen was springy and thick. The sauce mixes really well with the noodles. Char siew was tender. Strongly recommend their karaage chicken! Would definitely come back again!

All Toppings & Char Siew Ordered the all toppings mazesoba (bottom, $15.80) and char siew mazesoba (top, $13.80). I personally like the noodles (thick, chewy, QQ) and sauce, and there is also a free upsize option to 1.5x noodles. Quaint Japanese eatery right outside Bugis MRT- it wasn’t crowded at all on a Saturday afternoon. Total for 2 pax: $18.60 using BB 1 for 1. Do note that you can only order 1 all toppings mazesoba if you are using BB.

Mazesoba with Chashu (Bottom) Al dente ramen coated with really nice, sweet sauce. Comes with bamboo shoots and really amazing chashu! There’s free noodles upsize with every bowl. The additional portion (Slight less than half of the normal portion) was thoughtfully served in another bowl so you can add it in as and when you like. The extra portion doesn’t come plain- the noodles were coated with the sauce too (not bland noodles, don’t worry). Chashu was good, tho nothing to shout about. It’s the decent quality chashu you’d expect from any good ramen house. Each order also came with free-flow miso soup. My gripe would be the bamboo shoots which came along with a distinct taste that doesn’t cater to all palate!

Al ragu pappardelle ($25.80) - Al dente pasta, sauce was quite tasty but the depth of meaty flavour was absent. - Some parts of the beef chunks were a little tough and contained small amounts of tendon 🥩 [5/10]

Carbonara roma linguine ($26.80) - Having “pasta” in the restaurant name, it’s a shame the pasta was undercooked and hard. - Presentation was rather plain with only pasta and pancetta. - Sauce lacked in flavour and seasoning, even Pastamania can do better 🥲 [2/10]

Calamari fritto spaghetti ($26.80) - Interesting combi, calamari was crispy and chewy! - Tanginess of lemon butter sauce was barely present, could have stronger savouriness. [6/10]

Handmade Pastas Ordered the set lunch that came with mushroom soup, a salad, a main (we ordered their handcrafted gnocchi with tomato sauce and smoke ricotta) and a choice of vanilla/chocolate icecream. Portion sizes were decent and left feeling full and satisfied! Really worth given the large selection of handmade and high quality pastas. I especially loved their gnocchi which didn’t have too much of a doughy/floury texture as many other eateries do + the taste of potatoes was retained. They made the right choice of pairing it with the tomato sauce so that it wouldn’t be too heavy. Worth mentioning is their caprese appetizer - the cheese and tomato slices were really really fresh! Perfect combination when eaten with olive oil and vinegar. Service here was great as well. All the staff were really friendly and introduced the dishes to us with great detail. Thanks for the good experience!😊

1-1 Meal Ordered stracci which has a mellow taste but not to my liking and another one was lasagna which was better! Soup wise - mushroom soup would be the better choice.

Good Food And Ambience Came to this restaurant for dinner. Must commend the waiters for their excellent service. Food was good as well. The tomahawk steak was tender and juicy and the seafood spaghetti was firm and had lots of clams .
