1-for-1 Wagyu Ribeye Set Very pleasantly surprised to see that this hot pot restaurant in my hood offered 1-for-1 deals on Burpple! Opted for the 1-for-1 set for dinner with my family (4 pax), and we had the option to choose other sets to make up the 2nd set. Each set comes with the choice of 1 soup, vegetable platter, choice of carbs. Here’s what we ordered: • Wagyu Ribeye Set • Pork Belly Set • Chicken slices (half portion) • Wagyu Ribeye (half portion) • USA Short Rib (half portion) • Pork Belly (half portion) • Quail eggs • Lemon water chestnut Soup bases: Chicken Mushroom, Fish Soup with Milk The meats are served shabu shabu style, which are quite thinly sliced and cooks fast in the soup. All the meats that we had are very tender and good! There is a free flow sauce bar with a variety of condiments, side dishes and fruits to pair with your hotpot experience. Both soups that we ordered were very flavourful and we enjoyed the hot pot experience very much! Our total bill came up to be ~$122 so I wouldn’t say that the Burpple deal made it very affordable. But for the experience, I would recommend giving it a try!

wagyu ribeye set $50.99 if using any bank card or foodie app promo, it is compulsory to order this $50.99 set and u can choose the same or other set meal (chicken/pork collar/wagyu beef) as the free one. aircon is really strong difficult to get staff's attention wide variety of sauces and condiments but not constantly topped up soup base is not very flavourful

1 for 1 still works Contrary to the earlier review, burpple beyond 1 for 1 is still accepted at this outlet

Argentinian Prawn | $26 This was a dollar more expensive than the birria, but I’d get this any day over the latter. Though not the kind of cheesy goodness you’ll get with a birria taco, this was refreshing and delightful. The Argentinian garlic prawns was grilled to perfection to give that slight Smokey flavour, not withstanding them being huge and fresh. The combination of Thai mango salad and cilantro gave an appetising boost to every bite. The chipotle mayonnaise added that slight creaminess and light spice to it, and they all the elements added up together very well. That being said, it’s more worth it at Lavi Taco’s if you use the burpple deal since it guarantees you some discount, though it also presents some limitations in flavours - such as not being able to go for this dish, and timings that you can eat there. Rate:🌟🌟🌟

Masala Lamb Birria | $25 For 2 pieces and pretty little stew by the side my first thought was how unaffordable it was. The masala lamb deep fried taco was not as oily as I’d expected, but the gaminess of the lamb was much more overpowering, to the point the masala felt like a little tingle. In fact, when you dip the taco into the birria, it’s unlikely that you’d get much masala flavour. Cheesy with a decent amount of meat, but, I would go for the other tacos instead. Rate:🌟🌟🌟

Charashi don A hidden gem

Bara Chirashi Don Haven't been here for a long while and one thing for sure is that they have taken their presentation up a notch. The Bara Chirashi Don was served in a ceramic white soup plate instead of a bowl. It was gorgeous to behold as it's plated beautifully and vibrantly coloured from the assortment of diced sashimi and topped with ikura and edible flowers. Interestingly it had blocks of steamed egg instead of tamago.

Don (Lunch) (~save $20) Looking for a fusion take on the traditional Japanese Izakaya? IPPAI should be your next go-to joint! Their menu features a wide variety of dishes ranging from dons and sashimi, to grilled meats and seafood. If you’re on a lunch break, you should most definitely opt for their Chirashi Don.

All of their prime meat and chops are prepared on-site and served by staff with years of steakhouse experience. With #BurppleBeyond, you can get 20% off their Brazilian BBQ Buffet (Adult).

Cocktails (~save $18) 23 Ann Siang is the perfect place for an after-work tipple! Nestled in the heart of the bustling Ann Siang neighbourhood, this establishment boasts a fully stocked bar (on their upper floors) where guests can unwind at while socialising over their craft cocktails.

Good food but inaccurate Burpple Description unable to use any discount I had explicitly travelled down all the way for dinner, with the understanding as per the application that either the 1-1 Donburi or 30% off total bill could be used. 1-1 states in the terms and conditions “not applicable for lunch deal”, which I acknowledge. I was there during dinner time and I was not going to opt for a lunch deal. Prior to ordering, I checked with the waiter whether I could use the 30% or 1-1 donburi deal. To my surprise, he pointed that the donburi 1-1 was only for the premium donburi and NOT for the other regular donburis which were NOT part of the lunch deal — they were ala carte donburis that we can purchase during the dinner service so I don’t understand how it was a lunch deal to the restaurant. Worse thing is the 30% was only available for the SHARING PLATTERS, but on the app it clearly stated “not valid with 1-1 deal” which is reasonable but it’s basically inaccurate advertising that deserves a further compliant because it is unethical to use the Burpple platform and yet deny customers any use of the Burpple vouchers when they had already arrived at the resto. The food and service was good and we did not complain with the staff as I suppose company policy is not his fault, but this is highly unethical and Burpple should look into ensuring that the resto isn’t lying about their offers stated on this app as we have paid for Burpple subscription, how can the restaurant claim that every page on their menu that is NOT a lunch deal is still a “deal” except their premium bowls? And how can they indicate NO EXCLUSIONS on their 30% off total bill but inform guest that this is only for sharing plates but not mains? Why not for mains if they didn’t exclude on Burpple? Dishonest.

Deep Fried Pork Belly Donburi After enjoying myself at the recent Burpple #Eatup hosted by the good folks from Saketoshi, I was back to check out their regular menu. Saketoshi serves a really good 1-for-1 donburi deal from Monday to Thursday nights. We really enjoyed their deep fried pork belly donburi. The pork belly is first braised (a la buta kakuni). It is then deep fried to give it a crispy crust whilst the pork belly retains its melt in your mouth goodness. This was tbh surprisingly good!

𝐔𝐍𝐈 𝐒𝐄𝐀𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐄𝐌𝐏𝐔𝐑𝐀 ($𝟐𝟒 - 𝟐𝐩𝐜) a lovely combination of shoyu sea urchin, seaweed tempura and truffle caviar😋😋 Creamy, crispy, salty - a perfect appetiser to go w the rice bowls.

Pepperoni pizza Loved the pizza here, tried a more conventional pepperoni pizza. Also ordered a pumpkin risotto which was ok With 30% off we paid $48.20 for one pizza and one pasta and was very filling.

1-for-1 pizza Overall: 4/5 ⭐️ Food: 4/5 ⭐️ Price (with discount): 5/5 ⭐️ Ambience: 3/5 ⭐️ Service: 5/5 ⭐️ Overall bready yet soft sourdough crusts, with their specialty crispy chili oil to pair with on the side if you prefer (not the best though). The downside is that we were there during happy hour but we weren’t allowed to use both burpple and happy hour discounts. We sat inside which was a bit humid on the evening that we went. Staff were very nice despite it being a busier night. Paid $28 (including GST and service charge) for 2 pizzas, so it was very worth with the burpple discount! Not so classic marg ($24) Loved the buffalo mozzarella! Almighty cheese ($24) There was goat cheese as part of it and with nice crispy bits on the top to add more texture. Drizzled with hot honey (I think it’s meant to be hot as in spicy but it wasn’t that spicy). I personally love the savoury and sweet combo.

Butter Chicken ($28) Quite a unique combi and while the butter chicken couldn't replicate the creamy goodness of the authentic ones, it still passed muster. Loved the addition of the pickled onions as well, giving every bite a nice crunch and a slight tang.
