Looking for Burpple Guides places?

nice chill ambience. everything we got was a hit! ordered the rosti mentai, kani gratin, akagi udon, tempura set, oden. tempura batter was nice and crispy, didnt feel too oily at all.

Osteria Mozza has solidified its reputation as one of the top destinations in Singapore for pasta and pizza, and my recent visit only reinforced that sentiment. The combination of thoughtful ingredients, masterful execution, and a festive seasonal touch made this dining experience exceptional.

Smoked Turkey & Candied Bacon Pizza
From the moment this festive special hit the table, I knew it was going to be memorable. The smoky, savory turkey paired perfectly with the sweet, caramelized candied bacon. The squash and cranberry added a delightful contrast, while the fried sage offered an earthy depth. The star, however, was the crust—expertly charred in their wood-fire oven, it was the perfect balance of crisp and chewy.

Orecchiette
The orecchiette with sausage and Swiss chard was a comforting bowl of pasta bliss. Cooked impeccably al dente, each bite offered a delightful chew. The sausage brought a hearty, flavorful kick, while the Swiss chard added a subtle bitterness that balanced the dish. This was Italian comfort food at its finest.

Nancy's Caesar Salad
It’s no wonder this Caesar salad has achieved world-famous status. The egg leeks lent a rich, creamy element, while the anchovy crostini delivered a punchy, umami bite. Fresh, crisp greens tied everything together for a refreshing start to the meal.

I didn’t realised this Malay food stall at Hong Lim Food Centre has been here for very long since 2002, Dapur F. Faiz serving variety Malay cuisines.

Decided to try this stall after so many years working in Chinatown. I came late lunch time and only a few options left, which mee soto still available.

Their price is consider affordable for now. Their mee soto comes with slices of shredded chicken and noodles. Tasty and enjoyable.

Unfortunately good things come to an end, but at least we ended it on a sweet note at @sugarhallsg. They have two cocktails that could be considered to be dessert-like, especially the Dirty Chocolatini. All cocktails are $26++ which is about the market average price for a cocktail, but these concoctions are far from average.⠀⠀
⠀
The Dirty Chocolatini is a concoction built on a base of Monkey Shoulder Whisky, Merlet Amerisse, a bitter blackcurrant aperitif, chocolate, white cocoa, raspberry and lime. I already knew that chocolate & whisky were quite a good pairing, but I didn’t realise just how good it could be. The Dirty Chocolatini tastes & feels like a melted down chocolate gelato, and then the Merlet Amerisse & raspberry pop in to turn this cocktail into a crazily chocolatey black forest cake. The amalgamation of fantastic flavours conceal the whisky well, and it’s definitely a dangerous dessert cocktail. Especially when you’re already a few cocktails deep.⠀
⠀
The Souffle Espresso Martini is less of a dessert cocktail and more in line with the post meal espresso. Santa Teresa Rum and Mr Black Coffee Liqueur are complemented by the addition of cold brew coffee & macadamia, right before the espresso elixir gets topped with dalgona foam. The sweetness and smoothness of the rum & coffee liqueur neutralise the acidity of the cold brew coffee and make it even smoother. However, I couldn’t really pick out any extra nuttiness from the macadamia, but the simultaneous alcohol & caffeine punch was more than enough to satisfy. Mixing booze & espresso might leave you with the Forrest Whittaker, but it will definitely give you enough of a jolt to stumble out of Sugarhall.⠀

Thank you so much for the invite, @sugarhallsg!

What a find. One, for the intrigue of its name. Two, for its superb taste. It's a stir-fry of pork, prawns and kangkong. The seasoning and wok hei proved that it's about the skill, not the ingredients.

Checked out this place recently, and the food didn’t disappoint. The gyudon was on point—beef slices were super tender, and the sauce was spot-on, soaking into the rice for that perfect bite.

The real star for me, though, was the spicy salmon don. The salmon was fresh, and the creamy, the seaweed topping and seasoning added so much flavour. It felt indulgent but not too heavy—definitely a must-try!

Portions were generous, and everything hit the spot. Solid comfort food that’s worth coming back for.

The Pad See Ew Moo from Thai Gold Food at Bencoolen delivers a delightful experience with its wok-fired flat rice noodles perfectly coated in soy sauce.
Each bite is savoury, featuring tender slices of pork and a generous portion of fresh vegetables, making it both satisfying and flavourful.

Dropped by this cozy izakaya in the CBD for dinner the other night. Ordered a mix of udon, gyudon, and grilled squid, and everything was pretty satisfying. The grilled squid stole the show—it was tender, cooked just right, and had a nice natural sweetness. The gyudon was flavorful and well-made. The udon was decent but unique—thinner and flatter than the usual—best enjoyed with additional sides. Would recommend this place if you’re looking for a relaxed dinner spot with friends or a casual date night vibe.

This was my first visit, and it’s now my go-to spot to satisfy my Kushiyaki cravings! The black pork collar and Tochigi Wagyu A4 are absolute standouts—juicy, flavorful, and irresistible, especially when paired with the sauce. Another favorite of mine is the mentaiko scallops; they were so good I had to hold myself back from ordering more because I was already so full! The food was amazing, and the service was impressively quick. Although I don’t drink alcohol, the staff enthusiastically shared their extensive sake selection, so it’s definitely a paradise for sake lovers!

used burpple 1 for 1 for the mains - had the grilled salmon pasta (honestly 10/10 for us) & the steak pasta!

salmon pasta was such cheesy goodness i regretted not getting it for myself! was eyeing my friend's dinner the whole time 😆😆😆

the steak was not bad but the dish as a whole was js quite mediocre. the sauce was rly salty & the aglio olio js wasn't very fragrant. would not order again

total spent $28.80 for 2 dishes after discount - pretty worth !!!

While the Peach Smash & the Passionfruit Daiquiri from @sugarhallsg were equally exceptional, we finally have a winner that just managed to edge it over the previous duo. Honestly we may have done the second cocktail a disservice though, as it is still a charming cocktail, it just had the misfortune of getting ordered alongside the winner.⠀
⠀
The Melon Rum Sour (all single serve cocktails are $26++) reminded me of the melon ramune drink, thanks to the honeydew & Charentais melon which is a type of cantaloupe. Besides the sweet melons, Havana Club 3 year old rum, absinthe, lemon & thyme are mixed into this fruit forward cocktail, and the booze hits pretty hard here thanks to the absinthe. However, the melon flavours in the Melon Rum Sour did taste a little artificial, especially on the aftertaste.⠀
⠀
And now for the what was arguably the winning cocktail of the night, the brilliant Banana Highball. The use of discarded Banana Peel Rum was a 300 IQ move by Sugarhall’s mixologists, and the pleasant banana flavours held up robustly against the Amontillado sherry, green apple & black walnut bitters. At first sniff, it smells like delicious banana bread, and then notes of caramel start to arise. The flavour, on the other hand, was nearly purely caramel. It strongly reminded me of a Werther’s Original caramel sweet with the velvety caramel notes, with just a hint of banana at the end of every sip. Incredibly delicious, and the Banana Highball has us going bananas.⠀

Thank you so much for the invite, @sugarhallsg!

We started off fairly well at @sugarhallsg with the noteworthy opening cocktails, but the next pair were a couple of levels above. The Passionfruit Daiquiri and the Peach Smash (both $26++) were fabulously fruity & flavourful cocktails that concealed a potent punch. I’d call it a dead tie between both, as I absolutely adore the uniquely delicious quirks of each.⠀
⠀
The Passionfruit Daiquiri is a mix of 4 year old Bacardi rum, green tea, passionfruit and lime, and garnished with a gummy bear couple. Despite the rum being the sole spirit here, the daiquiri is still pretty powerful, although the green tea quells most of the alcoholic burn from the young rum. The sweetness of the passionfruit juice is kept in check by the spritz of lime, and is then evenly mixed into the green tea & rum concoction. The daiquiri is smooth, sweet and somehow tremendously thirst quenching, and the urge to just chug it all down is nigh unbearable. As for the little gummy bear couple that I eventually ate…I’m sorry, little ones.⠀
⠀
The Peach Smash was a truly smashing cocktail and is another single spirit drink, comprised of Woodford Reserve Bourbon, peach, rhubarb & lemon. This isn’t quite as quaff-able as the Daiquiri, but it’s definitely a stellar sipper. The velvety rich sweetness of the bourbon composes most of the drink’s weighty body, and it adds a delightful oak & smoke aroma to the cocktail. The peach is ripe & sweet, but kept in check by the sourness of the lemon & rhubarb. I can’t place my finger on why, but I am fairly certain that I tasted pear in there.⠀
⠀
Sugarhall’s cocktails are all sublime, but when it comes to the Passionfruit Daiquiri & the Peach Smash, I’d be like the Hulk and passionately smash, smash, suh-MASH! Thank you so much for the hospitality, @sugarhallsg!
