Thai Kway Chap I miss travelling to Thailand quite badly especially with all their night markets & of course, good food!⁠ ⁠ Since we can't travel, the only other way is to get their food & Yaowarat Thai Kway Chap serves up pretty decent Thai Kway Chap that makes me miss the original one even more!⁠ ⁠ Known for their extremely peppery soup base, Thai Kway Chap has a soup base like bak ku teh but topped with the ingredients of normal Kway chap. Apart from the usuals such as intestines & stomach, you get fried crispy sio bak, lean pork and pork sausages too! They are extremely generous with their ingredients & even after taking away the portion, the sio bak skin still remains crispy & crunchy!⁠ ⁠ What's unique as well are the noodle slices, which curls up to look like little pig's tails which soaks up the soup broth with every spoonful. It has a slight qq bite which adds another texture to the meal. The combination is a spicy slurp-worthy bowl of comforting kway chap.⁠ ⁠ Can't wait to travel once we can, but for now, just food to reminisce!⁠ #BurppleTakeaways ⁠ 🍴From Our Pockets⁠ 🛑 👫🏻👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👯⁠ 💲 $⁠ ⭐️ ☆☆☆☆☆⁠ 📍Yaowarat Thai Kway Chap, Holland Village

Thai Kway Chap Imagine local Kway Chap but the Kway is rolled up into tiny curls and soaked in a peppery broth instead of being braised. Yes this is Thai Kway Chap. A serving of the Kway is $3 and you can order separately roast pork, fried tofu, deep fried pork intestines, fish meat Lap Cheong, vegetables all between $6 to $10. Quite pricy. Their milk tea, both the original and the green milk tea are very legit Thai style so be sure to order. I still prefer the local version of Kway Chap but don’t mind trying this again but in Bangkok when travel resumes.

Interesting Dish Options Being new to Thai kway chap, i was honestly confused about the taste because it tastes a lot like kway Teow in Bak Kut Teh (the peppery kind). The side dishes were little pricey, so I’ll still opt for the chilli pan mee.

Orange hot chocolate 8+svc More milky with medium body, the orange zest was incredibly well infused and was lovely with the chocolate This is made w their single origin, which people think is better than their house blend. Unfortunately it's hard to disentangle the chocolate taste by itself so I can't comment on the comparison against the house blend I had previously Must try if you're in the area

signature choc 7+ This is ok but not v strong. Saw some reviews say the single origin hot choc is better

Bueno tart 12+ There's a variety of components but somehow the yellow layer doesn't come thru enough. Supposed to be caramel or citrus? Either way because of that there isn't enough contrasting flavours

The Co-Op Ordered the truffle fries, Caesar salad and smoked duck carbonara. We loved the truffle fries - the truffle taste was very pronounced but the fries were slightly oily and greasy. Caesar salad was good but croutons were a little stale.

One Of The Better Burgers Out There! Haven't had a good burger in a long while, and I'm glad I had this. The Wagyu Burger ($25.90) had a soft patty that is nicely charred on its edges, with a good mild cheddar cheese that is melted into the patty. The truffle aioli, combined with the caramelised onions really added a new dimension to the burger, with the umami coming through strong. The fries were amazing too even after its cold!! No regrets having this sinful meal at all 😂

Not Very Cheap But Worth The Price I've ordered the wagyu burger and fish and chips using the 1 for 1 beyond deal. #burpplebeyond The fish was pretty decent however it was abit overcooked for me and thus abit flakey . The batter was light and crispy. The fries were exceptional good!!! It was well-seasoned, crispy and light! To me it was the star of the dish :)) For the wagyu burger, fries were exceptional! (Same fries as the fish n chips). However, the star of this meal was the burger. The flavour depth on this burger simply stunning! The patty was cooked perfectly. It was juicy and packed with lots of flavour. The caramelized onions and cheeze really adds on thr flavour to the burger. Topped with the light and toasted brioche buns, it's one of thr best burgers I've ever eaten. If you guys are a fan of burgers, you NEED to try this. All in all, it was a good deal by burpple. I'd definitely come back a second time to grab the burger again ;))

Minced Pork Rice Bowl My first and last time at The Salted Plum. They were very generous with the minced pork. But a rice bowl + drink costs $15 which i find it too pricey

Best Place For Comforting Taiwanese Food So gutted to hear that TSP will be closing soon😢 this place served up some real good comforting taiwanese dishes that is perfect for rainy days. Favourites here were: Burnt Chili Chicken, Braised Cabbage, Lor Bak, Tofu with Century Egg! Will miss this place alot!!

Taiwanese Inspired Meal \\ Braised Beef Shortplate Sliced Braised Beef in Spicy Sesame Sauce with Pickled Ginger. I don't eat beef but my dining partners all mention that this was good and a little spicy. \\ Fried Chicken Fried Chicken with five spices, preserved orange and calamansi. This just tastes like popcorn chicken with dried orange skin and powdered with plum, salt, pepper and spices. The chicken is tender and succulent while the seasoning makes it very addictive. \\ Sautéed Cod Fish with Bean Paste Fried Cod Fish with Shiitake Mushrooms in Dou Ban Jiang Sauce. This was a little dry and did not fared as well as compared to the other dishes. \\ Lu Rou Signature Braised Pork Belly with Chinese Angelica Root (Dang Gui) in Haus Sauce. The pork belly is braised for at least 10 hours in an aromatic mix of spices before being transformed into a thick and savoury gravy. The slab of pork belly is tender, fatty and gelatinous that requires minimal effort to chew before it melts in the mouth.  Thanks to Burpple Beyond, we get to enjoy four $15 Ala Carte Dish for the price of 2 ✌ (U.P $60)

foie gras and truffle tagliatelle ugh this was actually so good i wanted to inhale it. all my favourite elements and perfectly creamy with truffle without being too sickening :-)

Burrata goodness Burrata Pizza ($28) Thin and crispy pizza fired fresh from the wood fired oven, we really enjoyed the taste of the burrata on top of the sweet tomato sauce. Pesto complemented the pizza nicely

Crabmeat Fettuccine Crab meat Fettuccine ($28) Decadent and creamy with a generous serving of crabmeat. Sweetness of the seafood was really brought out, pasta was al dente

Great restaurant for a special occasion. Came here for a birthday dinner and had an amazing experience. The steak was tender and juicy. We alao ordered the scallops which were flavourful. The restaurant itself is very aesthetic, and it was quiet when we went at night. The restaurant were friendly and attentive too.

the medium rare ribeye is really tender a very quiet place for meeting up with friends.

Watermelon cake similar to Black Star Pastry One of the standout offerings at this cafe is their watermelon cake ($12), a nod to the famous version served at Australia's Black Star Pastry. For someone who have had the chance to taste the original, I can confidently say that the version served at this cafe is not too far off. Although I found the watermelon a little too moist to pair with the layers of sponge and cream, it brought me back to the old days when I discovered the surprising combination of both watermelon and cake.

Choclste Burnt Cheese Cake The cheese cake is rich and pretty decent. Would be better if the centre is oozing and melting.

Assorted Cupcakes. I will tell you my fave. So far I am liking the pistachio and the red velvet Nutella. The pistachio is a clear winner among the kids and adults. Those who prefer strawberry cream and jam will like the pink cupcake. If you have a sweet tooth, you will like the strawberry and the chocolate. Personally I prefer the rich nuttiness of the pistachio. The sesame is okay but I suspect those who love it thick like the actual paste will find it average. I remembered liking the sesame alot better when I first bought it. I am not sure why I am neutral this time. I also bought a pack of Matcha madelines but I do not find it that great.

Boba Milk Fresh milk with a splash of gula melaka goodness. Hoba Boba Fatt 👍🏻 deliciouz

Japanese Zen With Pearl ($4.50) Got the Japanese Zen (base price $4.20), and added pearl (additional $0.30 for toppings). Used the Beyond 1-for-1 deal here so the drink was very reasonably priced. It is essentially an average Matcha Latte with a fancy name - the matcha taste was average, drink was a bit too sweet for my tastes (they didn’t ask me for sugar levels so I assume you can’t pick it), there wasn’t a lot of pearl in the drink either - a pity because the pearls are quite nice. For the price after the 1-for-1 deal, I think it’s pretty alright. May drop by the store if I am around the area and the store is still on Burpple Beyond, but probably wouldn’t specifically make a trip here for the BBT. The paper cups are pretty though. :D

Cheap Bubble Tea You Will Love! This may seem like a very unassuming shop, but be prepared to be surprised by their unique range of bubble tea flavours. The Brown Sugar Earl Grey Milk Tea ($2.90) was not too heavy and had a hint of Earl Grey, and the pearls were chewy. The Wintermelon with Zesty Lemon ($2.90) is really unique, and very refreshing! #burpplebeyond is available here as well so that makes your drinks even cheaper 😍
