Went for their Taco Tuesday again where each taco is $3 nett. Not sure is it because nvr add salsa, but the skin is more dryer than I remember.

Overall, I still like it and worth the deal when is taco tuesday

Tonito's pasta de cangrejo features squid ink pasta topped with crispy soft shell crab, breaded squid, charred tomato and finished with a dash of lime.

The pairing of the subtly briny squid ink, deep fried seafood and a dash of tangy acidic lime went really well.

Tonito's food can be a little hit and miss. I personally prefer their mexican selections (eg the tacos and quesidillla) over the Peruvian and Argentinian selections. Since our #eatup in December last year, Tonito has revamped and streamlined their menu so some of the featured dishes may no longer be available!

Tonito is an excellent date location and has decent to good food. It's a tad pricey but do check out their #burpplebeyond deals! As usual, special thanks to the good folks from Tonito and Burpple for hosting us!

Tonito's Mejillon Negra features Chilean black mussels, chorizo and tiger prawns in a seafood bisque infused with Lustau dry sherry wine.

I enjoyed the rich, creamy and savoury seafood bisque which has a nice hint of the spicy notes of the dry sherry wine. Some may find the dry sherry a little too crisp and tart for their liking but I'm perfectly fine wiping up the bisque with their mini baguettes!

Some of my fellow #burpplers at the #eatup who have been to Tonito previously raved about their signature fish tacos and it was not hard to understand why.

Crispy white fish is topped with tartar sauce and pico de gallo (a Mexican salsa) in a soft and fluffy flour tortilla wrap. I loved how the savoury and creamy tartar sauce combined with the sweet and tangy pico de gallo to elevate the subtly sweet and flaky white fish.

It's delicious but $20 for 2 tacos is kinda a little too expensive for my tastebuds... Portions-wise, it was also rather small... A pity though that it doesn't fall under the #burpplebeyond deals...

I was quite excited to receive the #eatup invite from Burpple to Tonito, a lovely Latin American restaurant in Changi Jewel. Since the closure of Tono Cervicheria, I have been on the lookout for somewhere serving Peruvian cerviches.

Tonito Cerviche features Hokkaido baby scallops tossed with lettuce, cherry tomatoes, sliced onions, ikura and of course tiger's milk. It is then paired with crisp purple potato chips. The ingredients combine to form a refreshing, light, clean and tangy dish.

It is indeed a nice clean appetiser to start the meal but lacked a certain wow to it. I wish they had used a mixture of proteins in it to give more complexity to the dish.

Pasta too soft but what do you expect from a western hawker stall. More importantly while it's flavourful enough it's way too oily

Lamb chop had too much bite, but flavour was good. Black pepper sauce was very salty

Dine amidst the beautiful scenery of Jewel Changi Airport's Rain Vortex at TONITO Latin American Kitchen!

Enriched with the heart and soul of Latin America, Burpple Beyond's 4 Course Set Menu for 2 features dishes such as Beef Quesadilla and Chips De Canela!

very confusing Burpple Beyond rules for this establishment, so we clarified w the waitress, who told us that the tacos were 2 for 1, that the pair of more expensive tacos would be charged.

But when we made payment, it turned out that we were informed wrongly. Yet, the cashier on duty did not give us the 1-for-1 as the waitress had initially told us.

Extremely disappointed with their lack of graciousness in recognizing their own error

my dad was OBSESSED with how thin and crispy the tortilla chips were😂 first time finding nachos not surfeiting!

BIRRIA BEEF QUESADILLAS ($18) had generous amounts of shredded short rib & brisket. v flavourful and juicy too!!

BARBACOA LAMB TACOS ($14 - 2pc)
one of the rare times i like lamb!!! so friggin yummy

This was a dollar more expensive than the birria, but I’d get this any day over the latter. Though not the kind of cheesy goodness you’ll get with a birria taco, this was refreshing and delightful. The Argentinian garlic prawns was grilled to perfection to give that slight Smokey flavour, not withstanding them being huge and fresh. The combination of Thai mango salad and cilantro gave an appetising boost to every bite. The chipotle mayonnaise added that slight creaminess and light spice to it, and they all the elements added up together very well. That being said, it’s more worth it at Lavi Taco’s if you use the burpple deal since it guarantees you some discount, though it also presents some limitations in flavours - such as not being able to go for this dish, and timings that you can eat there.
