A sneak peek of Burpple’s round-up for 2014's Hottest 100 Places in Singapore. Some of my favourite restaurants such as East 8, Artistry, Sync Korean Fusion Bistro, GÆsT are basking in the limelight. Check out who's top of the spot at http://www.burpple.com/sg/hot

With no doubts, this is one of the hottest item that what Arbite is offering at their most recent revamped menu. This is definitely a sweet treat and gathering from all sorts of tastes and cravings. I kinda like it this way for having such unique combination that doesn't overdo it but you get what you want to satisfy your cravings.
The toppings of ingredient makes it so much better; matcha crumbs, almond flakes and also their fresh berries! I believe it will be a bonus if the liu sha texture could be served in molten instead of custard-ish texture 😉

I just love that earthy, mellow, and slightly savoury quality that roasted pistachios have, so that even though the soft serve is airily light, it packs so much robust flavour – definitely my favourite here so far (I've yet to try the highly raved Earl grey lavender). But while the fluffy cubes of Japanese cheesecake were well-done, I can't help being appalled that the cost of this addition works out to 50 cents per tiny cube (each is hardly bigger than a blueberry!).

Not just any ordinary pancakes, these are thick wads of batter stuffed with cinnamon and nuts, then shallow-fried so the exterior is golden-brown and lightly crispy while the inside remains soft and chewy. A dollop of sweet red bean paste and a generous smear of black sesame cream on the plate enhance the toastiness of the filling; chase every bite of the pancakes with a mouthful of the vanilla ice cream to balance out their warmth.

The cakes and tarts at this new patisserie are terribly expensive (about $7-9) for tiny slices, so @pigg0ink and I opted to try just one item, the Choux Creme. It turned out to be absolutely delightful, the mottled crust crispy and slightly flaky, its entire cavity filled with a velvety vanilla bean custard that might have been too dense, if not for the clever and unexpected incorporation of crunchy almond nougat bits. Wouldn't hesitate to get this again!

You can have your root beer and eat it too! Good flavour but felt the cake was a bit lumpy and stale... Didn't have the refreshing zest that the real drink packs! Give it a miss unless you're crazy over root beer.

The bread pudding inside the otherwise bland and dry toast was heavenly! Matcha purée just tasted sweet, perhaps overpowered by everything else. The Thai milk tea ice cream was a good dipping sauce for the toast, and you can drink the leftover melted ice cream from the cup when you're done! I would think it's quite pricey at $10.90.

Last but not least, dessert in the form of a granny cake filled with apples and served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Warm Mister Chocolate cake strongly recommended by the friendly waitress. We opted for without ice cream. Served in a stylish position, slightly angled (think this is accidental actually ☺). Happy we listened to her. This is awesome!

Just glad that I had great company.

Caramelized bananas are super super good & the earl grey taste isn't an overkill, so 👍👍.
