Izakaya 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.

Cozy Izakaya experience 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.

New Fav Izakaya!! 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!

THE SEAFOOD PAELLA - $72++ These are special sharing dishes ($32++ for 2-3 and $72++ if you have a table of 4-6). This can be your signature main. You could order a few starters and just a paella. Add a couple of additional mains only if needed. The dish is amazing and they claim is made of sustenable fish.

Amazing Food Every single dish taste amazing! Eggs were soft and fluffy, paella is flavourful, chicken was tender. Mix of flavours is complementary, ambience and service is great too, highly recommended!

Great Food, Amazing Service! The Burpple set was a variety of dishes that were fresh, delicious, filling and satisfying. Food was all cooked perfectly and served from the minute we sat down and ordered. We especially loved the pork jowl, the Spanish omelette, and the paella. The staff were super attentive. They would see us looking around and would approach us even before we called them over. Didn’t get to try their tapas but all the dishes left the kitchen looking delicious. We’ll definitely come back again to try more!

Food Portion was small not enough for dinner (maybe just the right size for a snack) Without burpple this would be $30 this would not be worth $30 Taste wise it is ok only

Horrible staff attitude, would not recommend don’t usually write reviews but this was so bad i have to leave a review to warn everyone. manager CLARENCE was extremely rude & unwelcoming, and it wasn’t just his unfriendly, unbothered tone. maybe he was unhappy that we were using burpple beyond deals, because he sent out their young part time staff a few times to pester us to quickly order, less than 5 min after we sat down. this place is in hort park, which has many dogs, and has a sign that states their al fresco area is pet friendly. well let me say - they are NOT. the manager clarence refused to give us a bowl for water, not even a disposable takeaway container. he tried to get us to order soups to get the extra bowls, which is such cheap behaviour for a nice place like this. he also snapped his fingers rudely at my dog a few times as he walked past, not sure what his deal was. while it is understandable that their younger staff might just be either part timers or interns, i think dropping cutlery on our (glass top) table more than a few times is hard to be okay with, especially when in a place that charges $30 per dish with a high end restaurant setting. they also dropped dirty cutlery near our phones at least once, and a knife nearly fell on my dog’s eye. the food was okay, but we would rather forego our remaining burpple vouchers than have to come back and pay so much for this terrible dining experience. the worst part is that we were really looking forward to trying this place, seeing the good reviews. edit: seeing google reviews, i noticed that there are really bad reviews of this place too, with multiple specifically for clarence (he’s a filipino guy). think twice before going.

Vineyard at HortPark 4.25⭐ Location is a bit out of the way as it's inside HortPark but the tranquil ambiance makes up for it. The server told us that this is a popular wedding venue and it's rare to be open to public on weekend. Since we are using the Amex Love Dining, all food item excluding drinks are entitled to 50% discount with a minimum order of 2 mains. We ordered an appetizer, 2 mains, a dessert and a drink. The appetiser white wine mussel is served first. We are impressed by the size of the mussel, it's green-lip mussel which is larger than the blue and Mediterranean mussels. The garlic bread served was freshly toasted too. WB ordered the squid ink risotto as he attracted by the big prawns shown in the menu. The prawn are served seared and it'll be nicer if the scallop are seared too. I had the duck confit, it's so tender that I thought I'm eating chicken. Ended the meal with Tiramisu to satisfy my sweet tooth. We enjoyed all the dishes ordered and will definitely return for the other dishes. #VineyardAtHortPark #WhiteWineMussel #Spiced20HoursIrishDuckLegConfit #FruttiDiMare #Tiramisu #SweetSummer #AmexLoveDining

Amazing night at Meadesmoore Had dinner at Meadesmoore on a Wednesday night and it was such a memorable experience. We started with the Burrata di Pugliese, which was an absolute delight. For the main course, the Meads Cut steak was cooked to perfection—medium rare, juicy, and tender, with the fat beautifully rendered. The accompanying salsa and bordelaise sauces were warm and flavorful. The Truffle Mac and Cheese was a standout. The pasta was cooked al dente, with a rich truffle flavor in every bite and a crispy, golden cheese crust that made it irresistibly good. I’d come back just for this dish alone! To round off the meal, we had the Tiramisu, which was creamy, rich, and boasted a slightly stronger alcoholic flavor than usual. This gave it a bold twist that set it apart from the classic version. Overall, the food was amazing, the service was impeccable, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. It’s definitely one of the best steakhouses I’ve been to and a place I’d highly recommend for a special night out!

The best steakhouse in town 🥩🍽️🍸 Had dinner at Meadesmoore a few days ago, and it was a truly wonderful experience. The warm, intimate ambience makes it perfect for a romantic date night or catching up with friends over a great meal. Every bite was absolutely worth the calories! My partner and I had the Burrata Di Pugliese, The Meads Cut, Mac & Cheese, and Tiramisu for dessert! While these dishes might sound basic, Meadesmoore gives each of them its own unique, unforgettable twist. Can’t wait to visit again to try everything else on the menu! 🤤

good food and ambience had a lovely dinner here! we had the steak, yellowtail crudo, truffle potato gnocchi, broccolini and eton mess. all the dishes were cooked to perfection. the service and ambience was great too. would definitely recommend this place for a romantic evening with delicious food.

Seperate menu for burpple Catadventure brings us to HV Cat was stunned when waiteress brought out seperate menu for burpple beyond deal Food good

Maki Rolls Each roll for $20 before GST *Burpple have a different menu for these rolls* 4⭐️/5 Deep Fried Roll Cripsy outer layer with deep fried ebi. Lots of elements and flavours in this maki roll. People who don’t eat raw fish, can definitely try this. 4⭐️/5 Salmon Teriyaki Roll Very saucy, very nice. Main highlight is the collaboration of the avocado, aburi salmon and the spicy mayo that elevates the maki roll.

Pretty meh Decided to pop by to try Takeshi-san as I remembered seeing quite a bit of publicity on it on social media. Plus, Burpple has a 1-for-1 sushi roll deal here so why not. They have a $5 drinks for Happy Hour 5-7pm daily as well as all-day $5/$6/$8 bar bites so we started of with those. We had the Umeshu, Suntory Highball, and the Lime Sui Gin Soda for drinks which were pretty okay for their price. As for sides, the Mozarella Sticks were lightly-battered with a nice cheese pull, made even better by the accompanying spicy sauce. Chawanmushi and Crispy Salmon Skin weren't worth it, can skip. Now for the Burpple Sushi Rolls, you have a separate menu of 4 sushi rolls to choose from. We had the Spicy Tuna Roll and Salmon Teriyaki Roll. Honestly, nothing much to shout about; just average and I'm pretty sure they were specifically made to be costed at $10 each, otherwise I don't think it's worth $20. We also ordered the Garlic Fried Rice with Wagyu Cubes. Fried rice was nice, lots of garlic flavours within, but there were clumps of plain white rice scattered throughout. Wagyu cubes were so-so and just forgettable - not what I would've expected from wagyu. Furthermore, our wagyu fried rice took so long to arrive and when we got the staff to check, she told us that it was sent to the wrong table by mistake. Did no one realise or said anything? Welps, at last they gave a 30% discount for the wait time. Overall, don't think I would return.

“Cacio & Pepe” & “Ham & Cheese” What a delicious mouthful, Chū and Co’s “Cacio & Pepe” ($9.50) had such a fun and tasty (tbh foolproof) combo - with slightly charred Japanese sweet corn, Camembert, Candied bacon and Pecorino cheese. The sweet-savoury toppings were truly the highlight for me but the dough acted as a great vessel as well. The base was relatively light, not all that dense or greasy. Felt pretty premium as I was surprised by the small edges of soft Camembert hidden under the strips of cured meat. I also got the “Ham & Cheese” ($9.50), crowned with sliced Sweet Potato, Honey Baked Ham and Brie de Meaux. Lacked that oomph for me but a great buy on a whole as well~

Coffee 💣! Coffee bombs are the best. Those friends who ate it love it 💪💪💪

Passion fruit kouign amann 7nett? PSA NO MORE moka kouign amann Passion fruit cream was pretty good, i havent had too many kouign amann, but this seems like a good rendition. The bite is not too much, it's very crispy outside, and theres a cake like texture as u chew, but very buttery so it gets jelat before you are done Not bad, can satisfying cravings. Thankfully the top wasnt too sticky, didnt really stick to our teeth

Toucan Pie ($7.80) Anything that Windowsill Pies puts out is just 👅👌 chef's kiss. This is their Toucan Pie, rest assured that no birds were harmed in the making of this pie. Instead, its made with pineapple curd and passionfruit glaze. Im not sure if this is still available as I got it a while back and it was a limited item. Ive never had pineapple curd before so this was a really welcome first try. The curd was really tangy yet sweet and had a prominent pineapple taste to it. The passionfruit glaze was the cherry on top with its tart sweetness and crunchy little bits of passionfruit seeds. Dont know how the hell they do it but @windowsillpies never disappoints... dang. Their outlets are a little out of the way but you can get them on @pickupp.sg with islandwide delivery, use my code 《BREADINOSAUR》for $5 off min spend $14! In the meantime im excited to see what other flavours Windowsill Pies comes up with 🤑 ⭐ Rating: 9/10 🤑 worth the price: a little pricey 🦖 would I buy again: ye 💍 would I marry: ye

Artisanal Pies Happy International Picnic Day 🧺💞 How about some pies and pastries to commemorate the occasion? Serving artisanal pies and tarts since 2011, we visited the Windowsill Pies branch in Westgate (found within Hao Eccelente) for some pastries. 🌟 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘄𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝗟𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗻 𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗲 𝗣𝗶𝗲 ($𝟳.𝟯𝟬) Couldn't miss out this signature item.

S'mores Pie ($7.80) The second of the pies I got from Windowsill Pies! This is the S'mores Pie, with dark chocolate fudge, milk chocolate pudding, marshmallows and graham crackers. The chocolate taste in this is INTENSEEE, its super rich! There's a nice mix of sweetness and palatable bitterness from the dark chocolate. The marshmallows add a bit of extra sweetness and chewy texture. The graham crackers are really fragrant and tasty too! Such a good pie! Again wish the crust was thicker and more cookie-ish so it'd feel more like a smores pie, but definitely a great pie. ⭐ Rating: 9/10 fluffy dinosaurs 🤑 worth the price: sure 🦖 would I buy again: not at the price but its really good 💍 would I marry: yes

Second Visit In April 2022 Came with my family at the start of Apr 2022 and really enjoyed the Customer Service here! This time, I brought my partner along to celebrate our 1.5 years monthsary! Staff here really live up to the expectation of ex-SIA cabin crew

Superb Customer Service Staff was ultra friendly, polite and helpful throughout lunch! Lobster Bisque is a must add-on because it is very legit!

1-1 business course A 4+1 course meal at Lobster Air as we added on half dozen of oysters. Otherwise the original set consist of a soup, salad, main course, dessert and a coffee/tea. The half Boston lobster with pasta is at an exorbitant price of $68 with their aglio olio a tad too oily and nothing additionally spectacular about their lobster. For most of their other soup and desserts choices, it comes with a pretty hefty top up too whereby their top up price is what most of other restaurants are charging outside. We opted for the lobster bisque (+$15) and Dark chocolate lava cake (+$8). None of the dishes are exceptional with maybe lobster bisque making the mark, at least it’s not diluted and there’s the umami flavors. Even with Burpple 1-1, I don’t really find it worth it which kind of explains why we are probably the only table of diners there. It’s either restaurants are trying to marked up to offset such 1-1 discounts and yes your customers can do their math too, otherwise, paying for such a bill, there’s many other better restaurant options out there.

gelato tasting (hay gelato) did you know hay gelato is branched from brine? you can try their blue pea and vanilla sweet cream as dessert at Brine!

chicken with glutinous rice interesting play to classic chicken rice 🐓 worth trying!!!! one of the top few innovative hawker recreation dish that i tried, no regrets getting it as your main using burpple 1 for 1❤️

KNIFE CUT NOODLES WITH BUTTERED CRAB my favorite dish of the burpple beyond set special ($98)❤️ rich in unami flavor from the generous amount of crab meat topped with ikura and seasoned with scallion oil 🤯🤩✨ i could have another portion.

One of the Best Places to enjoy Español Food After the amazing meal at Santi, I had always been on a lookout for great Español restaurants. And Olivia is exactly one of my few fruitful finds where I find meticulously prepared, awesome, authentic Español food and great service. Bikini "Barcelona" is taste and texture done to perfection. The slight char of the bread, the melted stretchy cheese, the earthy aroma of truffle and the nutty aroma plus saltiness of the Ibéricó ham all work so well together to yield a harmonised flavours from all spectrum. And I like the thickness of the bread: thick enough to introduce the wholesomeness of wheat and thin enough to let the other ingredients shine through and maintain the moist texture. A must-try here. Jovial Martini is a lovely creation due to the aroma of vanilla and sparkling wine. The egg white foam at the top makes for interesting texture. It sure packs a punch due to Volka added. 'Secreto Ibéricó' Pork is amazingly good. When I have my my bite of this, I go, "Wow, this meat is so creamy! I never had such creamy pork before." Okay, the creaminess comes from the rich oils interwoven with the meat. What I love about this pork is that the oils make the meat moist, juicy and filled with delicate nutty aroma, and the oils, not in plain sight, is only released from within the meat when I bite into it, producing that creaminess effect. So each bite of this is rewarded with a burst of the acorn goodness. The sauce is done just right to add bits of extra flavour to the pork while letting the meat's flavour comes out fully. It tastes even better when paired with the cubes of tomato since the fresh refreshing tangy juices contrasts very well with the creaminess of the meat. The Padrón peppers, which has a mild distinctive pungent taste of peppers, is good eaten on its own and with the pork. Olivia's Creamy Homemade Cheesecake is unbelievably good. The cheese filling is like creamy cheese cloud! One spoonful to taste the distinctive strong savoury flavour of blue cheese and then poof, just like a cloud, it melt off to leave off a lingering taste of the cream, cheese and almond. I love havinf this with the almond stable since its light sweetness balances up with the saltiness of the cheese filling. The interior of the place is cool, chic and rustic all at the same time. I like the warm lights, rattan chairs and brick walls that induce a mood for chilling out and just enjoying good food. And the arched windows that one can peek through to see the lush green foliage outside add on to laid back vibe of the place. Service here is excellent and impressive. Upbeat, enthusiastic, friendly and attentive, Saroj and team, including the bartender of course, always make sure we patrons are well attended to. It's so easy to get their attention. Sometimes, just a turn of the head, the service staff, especially Saroj, will come up to help already. When I'm finished with my course and set up my cutleries to indicate so, one of them will come up soon to clear the plate while asking about how is the food. This level of attentiveness is awesome. With a visit to Olivia, I finally found my favourite Espanõl restaurant in this place. Everything is so well-executed. I look forward to going back to enjoy more of the good food here. Thoughts: Awesome Espanōl Food and Awesome Hospitality

@ oliviarestaurant_sg is one of little boss fav rest. We ordered Lobster Avocado Caviar, lobster meat wrapped with avocado and topped with salmon roe with caviar and savoury sauce. Some people might find it too rich, but for my family, we like it 😋. 💰$46. 📍Olivia restaurant and lounge. 55 Keong saik road, #01-03

Duck Rice Dish The star item of the night was their cheesecake . It’s more of a savoury not so sweet style that tastes likes goat cheese is added . This duck & rice dish was a close second .
