yet another pistachio icecream & this time its frm a cozy shop located along 1 of the busiest road in SG - orchard road! ๐Ÿคช

pistachio has alws been my to-go flavour even if it requires +$ !! ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ i wanna know who can make the best pistachio flav ๐Ÿง (lmk where uw me to try tho!)

@playgelato pistachio is centred at a v neutral taste. i wouldnt say i love it bt its an average cut. i would actually make tht the bare minimum for any pistachio to taste gd. ๐Ÿ˜‰

the nuttiness seems to be thr bt oso not thr, got me a lil confused! bt the texture thoโ€ฆ it has this weird consistency in which i dont rly fancy!! ๐Ÿ˜ฃ๐Ÿ˜ฃ๐Ÿ˜ฃ this airy airy texture tht make the icecream feel UNsmooth!

its oso 1 of the sweetest pistachio ive eaten (not sugary sweet bt more of sweet>nuttiness which means needa drink up!!) ๐Ÿคซ

TIP: $1.99 flash deal thanks to @shopee_sg , ure free to choose any of their CLASSIC flavours!

ive alws wanted to try @kingoffriedricesg for the longest time bc it was a โ€˜thingโ€™ for a period of time bt dang nth is late when its still living up to its name! for it to call itself the king of a certain dish, thy must be rly good manz! ๐Ÿฅต๐Ÿฅต๐Ÿ’ฏ

okok get to the taste!! :o
not only does it has the wokhey, its egg fragrant is prominent & super generous w its ๐Ÿฅš too!! ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ (when ppl ask whatโ€™s my favourite food, i reply: egg! im being srs!! ๐Ÿ˜…)

yo & look at the pearlie rice!! ๐Ÿš totally isnt ur usual plate of fried rice ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ i believe its using jap rice? not too sure on tht bt do u rly needa know the origin when u swipe โžก๏ธ & see tht the rice is literally ไธ€็ฒ’ไธ€็ฒ’็š„! โš ๏ธโš ๏ธโš ๏ธ

& come on laโ€ฆ the pork cutlet! literally was in awe for a moment as i stare at my late for a gd 5mins, bc i was busy snapping beauty shots for it ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜… HOW CAN A PORK CUTLET BE SO HUGE!!??! omg this is illegal โ€ผ๏ธ uk youโ€™ll prib think tht thicc means undercook since the heat may not be able to transfer thru the entire cutlet bt @kingoffriedricesg has proven me wrong! its actually super tender!! ๐Ÿค“โœŒ๐Ÿป

1 of the most impt component of a gd burger is the buns itself! these charcoal buns r nicely toasted tht it leaves a nice charred touch! ๐Ÿฅธ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป in 1 bite, i get to savour a myriad of tastful flavours esp the sauces! ๐Ÿ˜— using their house-made mayo n other sauces mixing well a delightful touch for the juicy textured portobello! ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ„๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

special highlight to the caramelised onions ๐Ÿง…!! S H O C K I N G?!! haha ๐Ÿ˜› well its bc it has elevated the taste of the burger! so delicious! :)

my v first mexican food experience!! ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ i didnt mention much on my prev post for the portobello burger bt can i jus say tht the ambience is perfect for work/study, cozy & w rly friendly staffs! ๐ŸคฉโœŒ๐Ÿป

alright so back to this dish, well the quesadilla didnt rly stood out much to me bc i didnt rly appreciate it bc all i tot wasโ€ฆ i can make tht crispy thin layers at hmโ€ฆ possibly a prata? so it didnt rly justify the amt 1 has to pay for the dish! nonetheless, aft taking photos n delaying the perfect time to eat (at its hottess), it still remained crispy ๐Ÿ˜ฌ so YUMZ to tht! ๐Ÿ˜›๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ˜‹

the fillings between the tortilla wasโ€ฆ kinda little ._.

i think the major highlight has gotta be the potatos! seldom eating potatos bt these r SO SO SO GOOD! texture was cooked to perfection! (seems like an easy dish bt honestly, not everyone can perfect it!) for once, i actually love eating ๐Ÿฅ”โค๏ธ๐Ÿฅ”โค๏ธ

a total stunner! if its not for the recommendation by the manager, I wouldntve ordered it! a new item which taste like the Ritz Apple Strudel bt more compact in texture for the flakiness & the cream n strawberry rly complements well to the slightly drier covering (the mille-feuille) ๐Ÿคซ๐Ÿฐ & omgโ€ฆ its so affordable?!! big portion & only

โ€ผ๏ธ whenever weโ€™re in the central, i realised weโ€™ll alws be stucked between humans, sound waves r much sharper & its jus that busy orchard road! thankfully ive found @theassemblyground

be it its outlet at The Cathay or Cineleisure, i found some key areas in common.
1. Consistency
2. Location for ambience
if u realised, both locations r seen to be slightly quieter on normal days, in fact even when i went on a Sunday, i donโ€™t feel the tension and urge to hurry because of how laid back and chill the vibes @theassemblyground has created. โœจโœจ its definitely a considerable place for ppl to catch up w one another or even arranging ur first date! ๐Ÿฅฐโค๏ธ

so now here comes the partโ€ฆ their food were delicious as well! Crab Pomodoro Pasta ๐Ÿ ($24).

Despite being shredded all over the pasta, the ๐Ÿฆ€ meat were legit & generous in qty! Every mouthful of spaghetti would hv bits of crabs in it & its tangy & spicy sauce literally coats each & every strands of al dente noods ๐Ÿ

also, managed to try the Miso Pork ($25) as well (not featured in my posts) but its an option that yall might want to consider! Great plating, looks small but dont worry, its a good amt to keep u full! ๐Ÿ˜‰ The miso was distinct & when u let ur meat glide thru it & consumer, its nth but umami & tender juicy pork enters right into ur mouth! ๐Ÿค“โœจ

&&& thanks to @burpple once again HOHO im able to get my hands onto them at a 1 for 1 deal!! (both outlets hv 2 main dishes 1 for 1 vouchers!!) so w that saidโ€ฆ i guess yall btr head down! ๐Ÿคช

when i first saw this ft. on @lihosg , i was so keen in trying it! getting a pandan milkshake on a warm sunny day ๐ŸŒž is sucha heavenly feeling! :b

got mine @ 75% stevia & as a sweet tooth, i feel tht its still sugary sweet! ๐Ÿ˜… putting tht aside, the shake itself was smooth n creamy, w just the right amt of pandan taste however, weโ€™ll prefer it to be slightly stronger n leaning more towards natural pandan fragrant! ๐Ÿค“

whipped cream provides tht light n airy texture & not forgetting the drizzle of salted caramel w an additional lotus biscoff touch! ๐Ÿ”ฅ yall shouldnt be new to savoury kicks isnt it?? ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿฅณ

โ€ผ๏ธ i patronise jewel very often as if its my 2nd hm bt the outside version & so thrs this 1 lvl tht i roam arnd almost everytime im thr; u guessed it: the basement. its my food heaven ๐ŸŒŸ & ive chanced upon these aesthetically pleasing cinnamon rolls! ive only tried the ones frm Star Cinnamon & im a sucker for it, whenever im at Bugis, Iโ€™ll make sure go back late to catch the night deals ๐Ÿคฃ & so @rrooll.sg caught my eyes! got to know tht its under my bestfriendโ€™s lobang (my dearest @burpple) so I immediately grabbed a set of 4 @ $10 ๐Ÿ˜โœจ

Hereโ€™s what ive gotten! :-)
โœ… Garlic Onion Cheese
โœ… Matcha Cinnamon
โœ… Hawaiian
โœ… Hazelnut Royal

โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅ STARE AT THE CROSS-SECTIONS โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅ

texture wise, hawaiian has the softest & breadie texture (not forgetting its zesty tomato sauce which deceives u in thinking tht ure eating a ๐Ÿ•) compared to the others which was slightly crumbly n on the drier side! altho garlic onion cheese was the most enticing to meโ€ฆ was pretty disappointed w the fillings inside as the taste wasnt as complex as what the name suggests! ๐Ÿ˜“๐Ÿ˜“ likewise the matcha, it wasnt matchalicious enuf to claim to be a matcha roll bt perfect for matcha beginners! ๐Ÿค—

didnt heat up my rolls bt i was wondering it it would be nicer if ive followed their recommended instructions? ๐Ÿคญ anywsโ€ฆ im aiming to try their other flavours soon so do keep a look out keke! โœจ

non-Burpple foodies can grab them @ 4 for $13 (provided if the promotions are still on!) usual prices are up to $3.90 so its rly worth for my Burpple Buddies ๐Ÿค“
