not genuine! 👎🏻 informed the staff upon entering that i would like to use burpple & asked which mains the deal is applicable to. sat down & ordered accordingly. food - not too bad. • the deep fried cauliflower in korean sauce ($11+) was done q well, no overly greasy taste, quite enjoyable. • the pasta looked slightly limp but the crab flavour was not bad ($24+). the pasta was abit on the hard side rather than chewy - probably store bought pasta? other places definitely do it better, like eleven strands! however, when it came to payment, i informed the staff that i would like to use burpple to which i heard an "i know". however, i wasn't sure if i heard correctly so i continued holding my redeemed deal page out for him to look up. he immediately printed the receipt so i asked "you don't need the code or..?" but he just said $38.50. he asked if i needed a receipt after i paid, to which i said yes. however, he only handed me the nets receipt. i realised that the 20% had not been applied so i asked him, to which he suddenly started denying me even informing him and even said i "flashed the screen so fast" that he couldn't even see. uh ok. i then asked for a refund of the difference to which he checked & reverted saying the transaction had gone through, he couldn't refund me. gurl what. told him i'd already redeemed the deal, was there really no way he could make things work for the both or us, and he said "you guys are coming back right? we can offer some discount the next round..." . like we would come back after being scammed 🙄👎🏻 and like you'd remember we have a discount when we actually return. anyway he claimed he was new so we didn't say much. we spoke to another server who immediately helped us to initiate the refund. thought cannot refund?????? anyway, that server handed the task over to the initial person who said cannot refund who very begrudgingly processed the voiding of transaction & a new bill. he then asked me if i have redeemed 2 deals (which confused me because the deal is 20% off mains, not 20% off ONE main) but whatever idm using all 4 deals here since i ain't gonna be back. just sharing - can go for the food but you gotta be really loud & clear & ASK to check your bill BEFORE paying (because it's not reflected on the screen). if not, you might not get your $$ back. oh & also be prepared to redeem 1 deal per main :-)

Pepper Agave Pepper Agave $6.90++ I have chosen this as my afternoon drink in The Coffee Academics. This was my first attempt and it didn't disappointing me. The well combination of coffee and pepper did surprise me and I would certainly go for another try if I visit them again. The pastry I chose to go along with this cuppa was Chocolate Hazelnut Cruffin. This was quite similar to that of Danish that I had in Alchemist.

Breakfast Pancakes with Espresso Butter Pancakes were fluffy and light. Came with fried egg and bacon. Delicious meal!

Canadian Pork Ribeye Cap Rice Bowl sorry no taste review but this is what it looks like!!

Brioche Benedict Smoked Salmon no taste review sorry but this is what it looks like!

The Bang Bang Salad no taste review sorry but just an idea of what it looks like haha

second time!!! 🍝 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 !!!

1-1 dinner ordered the chicken parmigiana and grilled salmon pasta. the portions were really big that we almost struggled to finish it so definitely worth coming to try with the 1 for 1 deals! paid $28.80 total for the 2 mains. the chicken was nice and tender, with cheese on top that realy complemented the flavour:) tater tots was crispy and yummy!

1-1 Dinner at Sarnies! First time at Sarnies to celebrate a special occasion :) Angus Beef Stew was really hardly and super delicious!! (Super tasty and flavorful gravy and nice portion of beef and sides). Glad the place feels super casual, cozy and has great ambience. Highly recommend the Breadcrumbed Fried Portobello mushrooms. Staff Haziq, Kim and Navi are super friendly. Can't wait to come back!

Pandan waffle flat white Was skeptical of the name but this really surprised us with its distinct floral pandan aroma and almost buttery creamy finish. Bought a bag of beans home to enjoy and it was just as good as in store!

Brekki for champions Hearty and filling spread with sourdough, poached eggs, maple espresso bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms, baked beans, and pork sausage.

Eggs Benedict Went with the unique stewed beef option and enjoyed the perfectly poached eggs and well-marinated beef. The brioche was airy albeit dry, and could do with more hollandaise sauce or butter for added moisture to the dish.

black sesame peanut butter ($10.90) this was rly nice and creamy and surprisingly both flavours went q well tgt! the peanut butter mostly predominated but you can taste lil pops of bssm throughout

avocado gula melaka ($10.90) v creamy! both flavours meshed rly well tgt

mango cream cheese ($10.90) this was rly fragrant as well. the frozen mango was not the nicest bc it got q icy from freezing but the cream was nicely infused w the mango flavour!

Grilled Chicken ($19) Served with mashed potatoes, cuts of yellow melon/cucumber cubes and broccoli, topped with a tomato, the chicken thigh was well-marinated and glazed with vinaigrette-based sauce. The chicken thigh was slightly dry and less fresh; it tasted like breast meat somehow, probably overcooked. Good ambience with nice background music but not good food. ):

Hanabi Maki This hanabi maki is less dramatic than usual, due to less tenkasu. But it's still my favourite maki here.

Aburi Salmon Miso Maki & Royal Glory Maki My first time trying the one on the right. It uses purple rice, ebi, cucumber, peach and mango sauce.

Buta Shio & Chicken Teriyaki Edible but not their strongest suit.

1 For 1 Kbbq Buffet Filling kbbq meal for 2 pax, had it with burpple's 1 for 1. Ordering comes with call number shown on TV screen, self service as well. Lots of condiments and meat! So worth it using 1 for 1 burpple deal!

Save Your Time And Don’t Come Here It really does not worth going there even with the beyond deals. With the deals it is gonna be $20 per pax. Sides dishes are prepared badly and roughly (a whole garlic! And the garlic tip wasnt even chope off for the slices). Meats are even worse. Beef are stuck together and even scissors can’t cut it apart haha. Our stoves spoiled half way through the meal, and the black grill paper kept getting onto the meat. It really doesn’t worth 💰20 dollars per pax AFTER 1f1, so save your time and choose another restaurant to eat mate!

1f1 kbbq for ~$17 per pax, quite worth but for $33… probably not. good variety of marinated meats! so didn’t get sick of the food like other kbbq. rlly liked the char siew & bak kwa pork belly and the pickled cucumbers & radish! but nothing super special. worth a try!

Good Variety Came here for lunch ($25.80) on a weekday and there were only 2 tables eating. The good thing about this shop is the fact that you can choose 3 soups, however only the chicken and pork broth are free. The rest of the soup will be an additional $3 or more each. I opted for tomyum and laksa. I love tomyum so when I had my first sip, I was disappointed. The tomyum somehow was lacking. It was not as flavourful as other hotpot shops and was on the oily side. Laksa however was good, mildly spicy with the taste of the coconut milk coming through. Pork broth surprisingly was light and good as well. Variety-wise I would say they offer quite a lot, more then 50 types of items. We tried their pork, beef and mutton. Pork was good, with a good amount of fat. Beef was ok, wish there was more fats. Mutton was slightly tough but did not have a strong smell at all. Their seafood the clams and scallop came slightly frozen with ice and had a slightly not so nice seafood taste. They also offer sumiri, beancurd, eggs, mushrooms and vegetables which I won't mention. I also opted for free flow of drinks and ice cream (+$4). They offer fruit punch which was good, not too sweet with a carrot-y taste. Rose which is Bandung but without the milk and blueberry. For ice cream there's coconut, cookies and cream, chocolate, mint and strawberry. Overall this place offers a good variety of food where you'll have something that you would like. For me it was the cookies and cream ice cream.

Hotpot Buffet Because of the situation now we can’t take the ingredients ourselves so the auntie who works there had to help us take our orders. I guess she didn’t want to make so many rounds because she’s working alone so she gave us a really huge portion of meat hahaha. The soup bases I ordered (pork, tomato and mala) were not bad! They’re very flavourful. Ingredients wise, just normal I guess.

Value For Money Steamboat ($29.80) Onepot offers a wide variety of soups and ingredients at affordable prices. You can get up to 3 soups per table and we got laksa, mala and chicken soup. The chicken was a bit plain for our liking but the laksa and mala were flavourful and yummy.

Burrple Deal : Macaron With Coffee Love the ambience, staff service is good too. Coffee (latte and iced black) are good!

Ham & Cheese Croissant 💼Service review: Super friendly and chill staffs and turnover service is quite fast! 🥐Food review: Food here is cheap, delicious AND filling! Best three combi I could ever ask for😍 Would come back again for the popular 1-for-1 Burpple deal for macarons!💜 ✨Ham & Cheese Croissant✨ Honestly, this was such a delight as a breakfast dish. The croissant was soft, flaky and buttery, which matches the chewy melted cheese very well! Although this dish sounds very simple, there was nothing bad about this dish. I just wished they gave me more of that lemon tarragon dressing🥺 The portion was not too heavy but will keep you full till your next mealtime! 💰: $15 📈: 9/10

Organic Eggs Benedict ✨Organic Eggs Benedict✨ One of the best hollandaise sauce I’ve ever had. It has the right amount of butter, egg and lemon, which makes it flavourful and not too watery. The ham and sourdough tasted good as well, but it did not stand out. Would like if they add a special ingredient that makes them different from other cafes💗 The portion does look small, but it was enough to fill the belly🐷 💰: $18 📈: 8/10
