A simple dish featuring chunks of juicy, grilled #octopus but it tasted so good! #burpple #spanish

The bowl seduced with its heady aroma of truffle and smokiness once it was placed in front of us. The sliced wagyu steak, medium-rare, had a lightly charred flavours that gave depth to the perfectly pink and tender meat. Served alongside was a the most generous portion of foie gras I've ever unearthed in a donburi! The meat was balanced against the essence of the sea with uni, caviar and ikura on top. This bowl is by no means affordable, but it certainly lived up to its price point and we were impressed by the quality! #burpple
:) The menu looked so enticing with its variety of #salmon choices that we had a hard time deciding what to eat. The Salmon Mentaiko is freshly seared, and slathered with umami spicy codfish roe, while the Garlic Shoyu Salmon was a delightful cooked option, braised in their signature garlic-soy dressing. We simply couldn't get enough of the salmon! #burpple #japanese #japanesefood
Onions slowly sautéed till they caramelized to give a sweet, burnt aroma that coated the pasta, tossed with marrow, scraps of meat and cartilage. Top this off with one of the yummiest homemade pork balls I've ever tried - we simply couldn't get enough of this #pasta! #burpple #italian
Meat feast over the weekend at this hidden #German find and it was surprisingly awesome!! Shiok 👍🏼 #burpple #meatfeast
And this weather calls for some piping hot soup. Really enjoyed the robust flavours of this Tom Yam Soup (cream style) with Prawns ($6.80), which totally satisfied my #thai food cravings and was so value-for-money with its generous portion of prawns! #burpple #tomyumsoup
The only main dish we ordered was the Duroc Pork Loin ($15). I felt that it was pretty good value-for-money although would've preferred the pork to be a bit juicier. Those scrambled eggs on the side though 😱 one of the creamiest and well-balanced ones I've had in awhile! Other dishes we enjoyed include the Aus Frementle Octopus Tentacle ($14.90) which was deliciously grilled and juicy, Burrata ($14) and Grilled Avocado ($9) that was served with cream cheese and crumble, and could possibly pass off as a dessert! #burpple
Silky steamed egg was heaped with #tobiko and #ikura for that extra cholesterol and umami-bomb. Loved the lightly crisp handmade potato chips on top as well, which added a crunchy texture. #burpple
Why that name? It's apparently so good that it can replace your partner after a break-up. #notkidding, that was what was written on the menu! I don't know if it's a comparable replacement, but it was certainly a delicious #steak! It was one of the most tender, juicy cuts that I've ever eaten, and packed a punch in taste. A pinch of the accompanying sea salts on the side (my favourite is the one with chilli flakes!) brings out the flavours of the meat even further 👌🏼 #burpple #meatlover #carnivore
This came topped with a generous amount of crabmeat and a dollop of caviar - the perfect blend of flavours. Wished that it could've been a hot dish though! But it was tasty nonetheless 😋 #burpple
It was so delicious (and incredibly filling), I'm inspired to do the same combination for one of my homemade lunches soon! #burpple
👋🏼 so happy it's the end of the week 😌 wouldn't it be perfect to celebrate with some hardcore #chocolate #cake like this Noisette Rocher Entremet from @dear.nesuto. Filled with a hazelnut praline mousse and Guanaja 70% ganache, and dressed with a caramelized hazelnut feuilletine that is roasted and slightly savoury to balance out the chocolate. Delicious, especially when paired with the malty, biscuit-y notes in the Oriental Tea from @antea.social. This was an invited tasting. Thanks @theduckeats for the hospitality! :) #burpple #dessert
