For $14, the Mediterranean vegetables quesadillas was filling, flavourful, and came with nacho sauce. Burpple 1-for-1 beer is limited to Jing-A brand which limited the selection to 4 choices: Tuhao Gold Pilsner, Pale Ale, Mandarin Wheat, Flying Fist IPA. Had the Mandarin Wheat which was light, refreshing, with hints of mandarin orange; nothing too exciting but easy to drink. The IPA with 6% alcohol was very representative of the style: bitter, citrusy, hints of floral. Would recommend to start with either the pilsner or wheat, then move on to the ales.

subscribe to their telegram channel for deals on discounted bowls for their outlet at nus! was only $10.90 per bowl which made the meal an absolutely deal (: pork was soft and melts in the mouth, topped with generous mentaiko sauce.

so delicious! bought the smoked duck and shrimp flavoured pizzas, which were thin-crusted and full of flavour. definitely worth-it with burpple deal as each pizza is rather large!

chose to ask for no tomatoes, so note that it would be included in the platter! was delicious and the brussels sprouts were cooked to absolute perfection.
not pictured: mocha, mentaiko tater tots, assorted bread
mentaiko tater tots were standard, though there was rather little sauce which made it a little plain nearing the end. the mocha definitely provided the caffeine kick! the bread selection is vast and unique as well, so do give them a try too!

had the nacho & mentaiko chicken burgers, both of which were extremely juicy and delicious! thoroughly enjoyed the burger which had buttered buns and generous servings - would definitely return again

ordered the spicy salmon pasta, boom chika wow wow assembly brunch & chicken and waffles! all were amazing and the boom chika wow wow & chicken and waffles particularly stood out to us. the burger was filled with a juicy patty, perfectly buttered buns and pickles which were a nice contrast! the chicken and waffles are on the brunch menu, but definitely does not disappoint. it comes with a potato stack, generous chicken servings and salted egg yolk sauce! would definitely recommend the above two dishes, though all were done well!

had the baby back ribs and crabmeat pasta with white wine sauce! the baby back ribs were cooked till they were fall-off-the-bone tender. the generous portion topped with fries and coleslaw made the dish one to remember (: the pasta was average, as it was too light for my liking. however, if you prefer your pasta al dante with light flavouring, it's still a decent plate of pasta! would definitely visit again due to the great ambience and delicious baby back ribs :")

affordable and juicy burgers, served with fries which were fried to perfection. however, i would recommend to give the crazy shakes a skip as they were too sweet and we were even struggling to finish the drink due to the one-dimensional taste (of pure sugar...)

food and drinks were extraordinarily mediocre, but the long service time added to the overall frustrating experience. they're closing at the end of june due to manpower issues, which is apparent in their long wait time (30min for each item). in conclusion, not a store i would recommend.

do note that there are only 2 pastas available for burpple deal - smoked pork carbonara and mala chilli crab pasta! that said, both dishes were done well although the mala pasta was a little too spicy for our liking. the carbonara was creamy and flavourful, a great balance to the spicy mala pasta! however, the best part of the meal is the decor and design, as the exceptionally high ceiling and glass panels added to the ambience of the cafe.

managed to try the wide variety of rice dumplings available at joo chiat kim choo traditional rice dumplings! it's a household name that needs no introduction, and all dumplings had a generous meat-to-rice ratio with perfect consistency of rice.
personally i enjoyed the mei cai kou rou the most as the vegetable was cooked well and not overly salty. great alternative to the usual rice dumpling flavours! if you want to opt for a more premium rice dumpling, the Emperor's Rice Dumpling will definitely satisfy those cravings with their premium pork belly. it was exploding with ingredients and is best to share as it can get jelak nearing the end :)

bought the snapper & laksa linguine, which were both decent for the price point with burpple deal! the laksa linguine was rather special and the flavours were done well, while the snapper was of generous serving size. however, the blue pea flower rice was a little dry and tasteless.
the restaurant was rather full on a weekday night so be sure to place a reservation before heading down! overall a great restaurant to go with burpple deal.
