Maiale Orientale Had a hearty lunch at Equilibrium today! I ordered Maiale Orientale, which is a bak chor mee inspired Aglio Olio comprising of minced pork, mushroom, chili and red wine vinegar😬 It’s hard to go wrong when you marry two of my favourite noodle dishes - it’s very tasty and satisfying:)! The vinegar could have been a little stronger to have more semblance to the typical vinegary BCM. The $15.90++ lunch set comes with small bite of the day, petite antipasto, cheese of the day and homemade bread, which is a pretty good deal to me👏🏻 We also ordered Garlic Truffle Fries topped with hand shaved Grana Padano ($16) to share - I love the baked whole garlic cloves that are served together with the aromatic thick cut fries:) Would love to go back to try the other items on the menu, such as the salty egg dirty fries🤩!

Spicy Aglio Olio With Olives And Rucola This is a modern italian restaurant opened by the owners of " supply and demand". Pasta suits people who loves olive oil based spaghetti. Ambience in the restaurant was cosy and intimate. Price: $18 Address: 15 Stamford Road, #01-86, Galleria, Capitol Piazza, Singapore (178906)

RICH GELATO tried the Bacio and Mao Shan Wang and the gelato is so rich with flavor and creaminess! absolutely loved it and was a truly authentic gelato experience (we even bought Hokkaido Milk flavor tub back). would go again to try the Pistachio flavor :-)

Sushi Set at Sushi bar Sushi and sashimi were fresh and delicious. But the portion for sushi is quite small. Don is probably more value for money.

Chunky Rolls Of Happiness The soft shell crab salmon aburi rolls is a simply luxurious treat with the soft shell crab retaining its crunch, and the salmon mentaiko adding a nice finishing touch to it. ($18.90) Be prepared to queue for about 30 mins for seats here if you're walking in, but the wait is well worth it

Sushi Bar - place for Classic Jap Indulgence for generous and tender Kaisen Chirashi Dons and the Soft-shell Crab Aburi Salmon Roll - their Chirashi is well mastered, with thick slices of Salmon, Tuna, Yellowtail, Swordfish. +++, and also lovely, tender pieces of scallop. Fresh without too much traces of fishiness, each slice melts in your mouth. My only gripe was that the bed of rice was slightly too sticky and mushy. ($22.90/$26.90)

Nutella Toast Tried the Nutella toast. ($14.9). Very thick, fluffy? Buttery with crispy crust. The nutella sauce was more dark chocolate than nutella, ice cream was good. Really good toast 4.5/5

Friday night indulgence with mum.. so glad they have my favourite salted-egg yolk flavour tonight; and mum had to choose the one in her all-time favourite colour - purple yam!! Still good quality stuff though prices have gone up quite a bit, I'd have to say! 😳 Wish they would do away with the fancy clear-plastic cup and spoons, pretty but quite wasteful 😛 Yummy gelato, nonetheless. We both enjoyed our scoop.

For Ice Cream on Thick Toast On days when it's not only ice cream but an icy dessert that you crave, head on down to this Havelock cafe for three-inch-thick toasts topped with ice cream. The Gula Melaka Coconut Thick Toast ($14.90) is a long-time favourite among the Burpple community. Expect a pillowy toast with crispy edges, topped with handcrafted coconut ice cream, grated coconut flakes and gula Melaka syrup. Burpple Tastemaker Cassie Ong loves how the slightly salted buttery toast complements the rich coconut ice cream. While you're here, check out their selection of daring ice cream flavours (from $3.80 per scoop). There are classics like Matcha and Mango, but there are also some, like the Melon & Parma Ham, that have made us stop in our tracks in the past.

Brunch, anyone? Love how balance this plate is! The egg is creamy and the bacon gives that crispy texture and savoury coat. #igotfoodcoma #burpple

Geisha (half-portion $14.90 nett) 🍕 ⭐️ 4.5/5 ⭐️ 🍴A unique and delicious Japanese-Western fusion pizza comprising Norwegian smoked salmon, burnt (more like charred) broccoli, bonito & mentaiko mayo spread. Fans of #mentaiko like me would love the harmonious pairing of the sauce with the salmon and bonito. The pizza crust was neither too thin or thick, allowing the flavors of the ingredients to shine through. $14.90 for half a pizza is a bit pricey but it was filling & deserves a try for the novelty of flavors ⚠️ The cafe is certified #halal #halalfoodsg 📍@hydeandco, 785 North Bridge Road, S198753 (near Bugis MRT)

Kaya French Toast Waited 45 mins for this; off-peak, barely a few tables occupied. Very 'eggy' bread (the ones we whip up for a last min breakfast) , sour kaya ganache that not only has a weird colour, but taste and texture, desiccated coconut that's reminiscent of phoon huat packaged ones. The saving grace was the ice cream and that splash of Gula Melaka. Not too sweet but the elements just do not blend well. I had to pair everything with the ice cream to get some sense of what the dish was dreaming to be like. $15.90. I'll rather go for the real deal that's one decimal place behind.

This carbonara is different. It isn't smothered with heavy cream, it doesn't leave a sickly cloying aftertaste, and I've never... NEVER liked carbonara, but I relished this, along with all the bacon sitting pretty or tucked in between the slippery spaghetti strands. OMB (Oh My Bacon!) has revamped their menu to include non-bacon items, possibly catering to people who might not want bacon during a get-together meal (but why are they your friends then? - just kidding). Dishes worth trying include salmon fish cakes, chilli soft shell crab on toast, and king prawn spaghettini, which showcase the chef's ability to conduct a repertoire beyond the cured pork belly. A must-order is the chilli bacon cheese fries: a potent formula of salsa, stringy melted cheese, Sriracha tomato sauce, and the ubiquitous bacon. Even your not-a-bacon-lover friends will find this irresistible. Thank you @burpple for the invite, and @ombsg for hosting us! #Burpple #BurppleTastemaker

The best way to chase your Monday blues is to have all your favourite in one pan. Oozy poached eggs on top of bacon and chorizo with loads of tomato sauce. Wish I could get my hands on this right now.

What's brunch without eggs? Be it poached, scrambled, half boiled, full boiled, overeasy, sunny side up etc. OMB's Salmon Fish Cakes comes with 2 perfectly poached eggs, 2 salmon patties & served with herb aioli mashed avocado! Something different from typical eggs ben that you usually get, this hearty meal could be the good start to your day! This was a hosted meal.

𝐏𝐔𝐌𝐏𝐊𝐈𝐍 𝐏𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐀𝐊𝐄 ($𝟐𝟐) A lovely adaptation of an eggs royale.🍳🥞 Warmly spiced with cinnamon, the addition of pumpkin into the batter gave it a texture that is less fluffy but more moist! Many places do their hollandaise overly sour or heavy, but this had the right amount of cream, with its brightness peeping from pops of tobiko✨

Poached Eggs on Toast ($19) Start off your Sunday with this good brunch dish. Two poached eggs on top of a thick white toast, smoked salmon and hollandaise sauce Loved the dish - didn’t think it would be filling, but the thick toast, albeit having a slightly tough crust, contributed a lot to it lol Egg is flowy as how it should be, pairing really nicely with the smoked salmon and the generous hollandaise sauce ——— 📍 Group Therapy Coffee - Cross Street Exchange 181 South Bridge Rd, 01-05 & K1-04, Singapore 058743 #burpplesg #grouptherapy

ice matcha latte drink ⭐️⭐️/5 nth special bout the matcha, felt like the matcha didn’t blend well with the milk. but, still drinkable. not rly worth for $8++ drink tho. 😶‍🌫️

Maybe it's the rain, feeling kind of down. Perhaps I need some rainbow latte 🍭☕️ in my life. Maybe I need some Colours.

Hazelnut Chocolate Honey Toast ($19.90) 😋 My 2nd visit in less than a week! Impromptu craving for pre-dinner dessert & here we are for this instagrammable & yummy signature sweet 😘😘 First visit for my sweet kakis & they love it ✌🏻Thank you ladies @eldoubleyouu @boeing_88 for sharing the sweet moments 😋 #burpple

Matcha with Azuki Beans Honey Toast ($19.90) 😇 Great sweet way to end the nite on the high! Glad my frenz love this dessert on their first try ✌🏻️ The honey toast itself was already crispy & tasty 😋 Matcha ice cream enhanced the delight 😘 This was such an instagrammable dish that even my dear frenz were busy snapping away and this was like a very very rare stuff that they would do 😜 #burpple

The Mini Ultimate Murtabak is still respectably large. Ordered the Ultimate Murtabak as well to share on a recent visit and I get why it’s popular. Filled with tandoori chicken, portobello mushrooms, hot and ooey-gooey mozzarella cheese, it’s a really tasty package deal. Strictly speaking, the fish curry gravy (which you help yourself to) isn’t even necessary but it does bring another fragrant facet of flavour to the mix and changes what could pass off as a Mexican quesadilla into a local Indian delight instantly. The Mini version ($9.50+) is what we got by the way, and it was big! I can only imagine how many people the Ultimate Murtabak in the original size would be able to feed.

My standard order. What is it about fried dough and curry that gets most of us so happy? I don’t have an answer but when the urge for a Roti Prata rises, one of the places I head to is @springleafprataplace in Jalan Tua Kong. They are such an innovative company - just look at the fancy Prata creations they have come up with over the years. I have tried a couple of them but truth be told, my heart still yearns for the basic Egg Prata ($2.50+). However, I do like to spike it with sliced green chillies for some fresh heat ($0.70+).

Milk Tissue Prata [$2.50] The milk here is condensed milk and it tastes like a lovely dessert prata. I love tissue prata because it’s crispy and it’s not too heavy on the palate as well... and this one is also sweet without being too surfeiting!
