Misleading Burpple beyond offer - not 1-for-1 Note to Burpple beyond users: the fish and chips ($9.50) with forest mushroom soup ($3.50) actually only adds up to $13 but there is a $1.50 Burpple surcharge if you use the “1-for-1 deal”. Enquired with the female staff on duty and they only replied $13 is if you get 1 plate but it is $14.50 if you use the deal which means it is really not 1-for-1 actually. Overall taste is ok but feel that offer wording can be corrected to 2 for $14.50 so as to not mislead customers.

Fish & Chips This comes with mushroom soup. Decided to take away and eat at home. With Burpple, I got one more set free. Food is quite good. Really worth it.

Mixed Grill Didn’t know Collin’s has a sub-branch at coffee shops. Found this at 501 West Coast Drive (just behind the food centre). Was there for dinner and we were surrounded by the uncles having their rounds of beer. A few tables were also eating the same western food as us. Price is fantastic. For 1-1, my total cost for two mixed grill = $15 instead of $30. The portions were very generous. They also run 1-1 promo for other takeaways only at a higher price of $22. Will be back to try their other branches since it’s 1-1. Wish they have more variety besides mixed grill and chicken funghi aglio olio.

Really nice “balls” Located near Tiong Bahru MRT at about 8-10 minutes walk away, Coq and Balls is located amongst a row of cafes/restaurants. We were welcomed by friendly staff and it had a chill vibe to it. We ordered 5 dishes and our favourite amongst all was the “balls” from their Coq & Balls dish [$15.90]. It was a croquette with crispy outer layer and creamy inner layer. Would say that this is one of the yummier croquettes I’ve tasted in Singapore. The wings had a strong lemongrass taste to it. Other than that, we weren’t blown away. Their Tom Yum Seafood Pasta [$20.90] packs a rainbow of flavours in its sauce plus they were generous with their seafood ingredients too. The tomato soup [$6]was thick and flavourful! The texture felt like it was blended from scratch. We feel that this is good for sharing! As for the chilli crab sauce and clams [$14.90], it was kind of underwhelming as the chilli was too sweet for us and the clams didn’t seem to absorb the taste too well too. Lastly, the caesar salad [$10.50]was refreshing especially more so because of the sauce. All in all, we will come back for more! :)

Duck pizza Didn’t have high expectations given the focus on beer and drinks here. So this pizza impressed in being thin crust, crispy, and generously loaded with ingredients - tender duck, sweet teriyaki sauce, creamy egg. Nothing wow but satisfying, especially when it’s under $10 with burpple discount. Do note that there are 2 pages worth of terms and conditions when using burpple (which the staff will hand out for you to read 😅)

Coq’s Delight Pizza | $16.90 Nestled along Kim Tian road, a small street a turn away from the main road along Tiong Bahru MRT, Coq & Balls saw a crowd of expats (probably regulars), enjoying a slew of happy hour drinks. Seemingly a popular and convenient option especially for those staying nearby, Coq & Balls whips up a mixture of Western, Mexican and even Thai fare, appropriate for anyone, with any kind of cravings to enjoy. The ambience was fitting for a sports bar or pub, with brick walls and rustic charm for friends to chill, hang out, and bond over nachos. Thin-crusted pizza with chicken, streaky bacon, onions, baked egg, and teriyaki sauce. The pizza felt more like a snack more than anything else because of how thin it was, and the flavours on it amounted to something like bbq twisties chips, just with some chicken and bacon chunks in it occasionally. I know it sounds a tad weird, but the seasoning they put gave off a punch of saltiness which made me feel like I was eating a bag of chips. The half-baked egg did not find itself anywhere on the pizza as well, feeling sorely out of place. I would still say that this pizza was decent, but I largely feel indifferent to this creation. Rate:🌟🌟

1 For 1 Nasi Lemak Set (save $6~) Rare gem hiding in the corner of the food junction. Definitely worth it for the 1 for 1 Burpple deal featuring 8 varieties to choose from. Price ranging from $5.50 -$7.00. My favourite would be their crispy pop chicken set ($5.50). Chilli was really satisfying and you can even ask for a refill!

Nasi Lemak Set Super worth it with Burpple discount!! Chicken was a little dry but for the price I paid, no complains!

Value for Money Beef Rendang Nasi Lemak Beef rendang is tender n sambal chilli is spicy. Portion is big. Value buy with burpple beyond 1 for 1.

Baked Mac & Cheese and Bacon and Onion Pizza Baked Mac & Cheese 7/10 Baked with generous cheese and mushrooms. Served together with one garlic bread at the side. Strong truffle oil aroma hits you immediately upon putting into your mouth. Not for you if you don’t like truffle oil. It’s a decent baked mac and cheese. Bacon and Onion Pizza 7.5/10 Cream based pizza topped with bacon, onions and cheese. Toppings are ordinary. The dough is soaks where is toppings are places however the corners are crispy. I really like the dough at the corner. Overall, it’s a quiet and nice place to chill. We were the only customers there. The service is great, people are friendly when taking orders and clearing plates.

Spaghetti Carbonara ($15.90) My kind of food. Enjoyed every mouthful of this. Generous amount of sauce, with enough leftovers to eat with the garlic toast after finishing the spaghetti. 100% will order again! Used Burpple 1 for 1 for this meal. Very very worth it as prices are Nett.

The Best Bacon Burger ($17) Tasted good and portion was huge! Fries stayed crispy throughout the meal. Thumbs up 👍🏻 Used Burpple 1 for 1 for this meal. Super worth it as price is Nett as well.

Pho good! Met a friend here for lunch & I had the signature beef pho (in photo) while she had the vege pho. We used the 30% off bill on burpple, which reduced the price of each bowl to about $10++, which is quite worth it for the quality and portion.

For 30% Off Bill Per 2 Pax (save ~$17) Hidden amongst industrial buidlings in Biopolis, hit up this gem for authentic Vietnamese food in a casual, relaxed setting! With the Beyond deal, save up to $17 when you dine out with a friend. Photo by Burppler Jaster Ngui

Not A Bad Deal $24 for 2 bowls of pho (beef is better than pork belly) and 2 sides using burpple beyond 1 for 1. Not the best pho that we had though. Thumbs up for the sesame crackers with pulled pork.

Gulab Jamun (SGD $6.50) @ Bar Bar Black Sheep Salaam Bombay. A salutation to the spirit of the city (and also the name of a film), this resilient gastropub serves a good rendition of the beloved dessert. . With a soft spongy chew that bursts with hot flavoured syrup, this entices with lovely floral earthy sweet spice flavour. . Holds the shape well, though without the garnish of nuts. . . .

Once entered, you’ll be greeted into a brightly-lit, clean and spacious casual dining area with no hints of any Indian spices. Desserts served at Indian restaurants are usually way too sweet but @salaambombaysingapore definitely nailed their 𝐑𝐚𝐬 𝐌𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐢 dessert with just the right level of sweetness and creaminess without being cloying! Comprising of freshly made cottage cheese dumplings served in a milk sauce with saffron and pistachios, this dessert is a must-have to end your meal at @salaambombaysingapore ! For those of you who are afraid of the pungent taste of cottage cheese, you don’t have to worry about it and I absolutely love the incorporation of saffron as it gives off subtle hints of floral aroma, elevating the flavors and richness of this dessert.

Mutton Biryani Spice up your stay-home period with delicious and authentic Indian cuisine as @salaambombaysingapore is offering 𝟱𝟬% 𝗼𝗳𝗳 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝘀𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱-𝘄𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 🔥! @salaambombaysingapore has a different look as compared to other Indian restaurants we are used to seeing around. Once entered, you’ll be greeted into a brightly-lit, clean and spacious casual dining area with no hints of any Indian spices. Another must-have dish at @salaambombaysingapore is 𝐌𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐲𝐚𝐧𝐢! Their mutton was fresh and perfectly cooked till tender, with no gamey taste. Paired with fragrant basmati rice, their mutton biryani is flavorful enough to have on it’s own. Otherwise, you could add raita sauce that’s served on the side.

Small Bak Kut Teh $7.5 The hot soup was served with 2 pieces of pork ribs. The pork ribs were super tender and tasty! Soup was flavorful, not too salty or too peppery. I also ordered the youtiao which was freshly fried and super crispy! It was a must-go with the soup. Service was good and fast too.

Braised Pork Trotter Was in the vicinity, and decided to try this BKT’s braised pig trotter. I like how the Trotter was substantial for the Regular portion, with skin and meat all beautifully intact, yet peels off the bones once you take a bite 👍

Smoked Duck w/ Crispy Spring Roll Skin (5/5⭐) Smoked Duck w/ Crispy Spring Roll Skin ($6.8++) This is the MUST ORDER in here! The smoked duck is sooo savory it's great, and the spring roll skin is super crispy. The combination of them is a bit weird but unexpectedly good! The crispy skin joined with soft chewy duck, after a few chews the smoked duck savory taste will spread in your mouth, it's definitely a must try! Friendly and helpful staffs, great and clean restaurant.

Wonderful fresh sandwiches! If you work around the One North area, this is one good lunch alternative to go to! I have tried a variety of their sandwiches and quesadillas before and they were all pretty delightful! The smoked salmon sandwich ($12) came with a rather substantial amount of smoked salmon pieces, fresh vegetables and a very refreshing dressing within. Though the bread itself can be a little tough, you know its quality bread. Love how fresh tasting the sandwich was! They gave a good handful of chips that may be a little too salty, but they were still addictive. There is a small amount of coleslaw by the side too which was made fresh in house! Will be back to try their pastas and burgers 😍

Very chill cafe A quiet cafe for you to have lunch and chill out. My meatball linguine was good except that I wished the pasta was more al dente. Prices were reasonable for the portion.

Baked Cheese & Ravioli with Smoked Salmon Cheese ravioli is really good! Brought 3 other friends to try them and they love it too! The cheese goes really well. Best to share! If not it will get a little too jelak 🙊 best thing about this place is that there’s no additional GST and service charge!

Curry rice don Ordered the pork and chicken katsu 🍛🍛 The curry is a little diluted but overall portion is great. The proteins were good too and love that they gave some pickles. Would come back again since the price point is really good.

Don Ebi is well fried. Rice is decent. 1-for-1 for the win.

1-for-1 1-for-1 Rice Don Using Burpple Beyond Deal in Burpple app Salmon Teriyaki Don with Egg (S$13.80) Salmon teriyaki and fried egg over Japanese rice. The salmon was more on the dry side. Buta Don with Egg (S$13.80) Pork shabu shabu and fried egg over Japanese rice, served with a spicy dip. The meat was quite porky in taste. Accompanied with a can of lemon tea and jasmine tea at S$2.50 per can. Got glass of ice for the drink.

YAMMY Milk Tea 🍠 fragrant much! The taro Milk was way better than the oolong pudding milk tea. We had it without sugar - somehow the yammy fragrance was a lot more pronounced this way! It wasn’t bland at all!

Oolong Pudding Milk Tea Located in a rather secluded corner of the HDB enclave, this place serves decent teas. Wouldn’t say it’s exceptional - tastes like any other oolong milk tea tbh. I like the combi with pudding - it gives a nice texture in the mouth. The consistency of the pudding was just nice - not too hard (like nate de coco), not too soft (like soya beancurd) Great deal with Burpple beyond!

Pi Pa Gao Oolong Tea ($3.50) with White Pearls (+$0.50), Double Pearls Brown Sugar Milk Tea ($3.80). 1-for-1 with #burpplebeyond! Hidden at Blk 125 Bukit Merah Lane which occupies just half shop space, Moocha can be described as a small and simple bubble tea shop with no fanciful interior design, in fact there’s only a sign hanging on the wall written Moocha in Chinese calligraphy. On a rainy afternoon, I asked for a hot Pi Pa Gao Oolong Tea with an additional white pearls topping. The familiar cooling minty flavour was soothing to the throat but didn’t quite blend well with oolong tea which was bitter. The white pearls were a disappointment as they just felt like some soggy starchy balls. What came as a shock was the double pearls brown sugar milk tea; I mean, brown sugar milk tea these days meant the brown sugar streaks on the wall of the cup but I guess it’s entirely different here. It appeared as a cup of normal milk tea but the taste of brown sugar was evident. Good save there, though aesthetically suspicious. Again the double pearls had white pearls with a mix of the black ones, which were way better in terms of chewiness though tended to the firmer side.
