Looking for Burpple Guides places?

This was my first visit, and it’s now my go-to spot to satisfy my Kushiyaki cravings! The black pork collar and Tochigi Wagyu A4 are absolute standouts—juicy, flavorful, and irresistible, especially when paired with the sauce. Another favorite of mine is the mentaiko scallops; they were so good I had to hold myself back from ordering more because I was already so full! The food was amazing, and the service was impressively quick. Although I don’t drink alcohol, the staff enthusiastically shared their extensive sake selection, so it’s definitely a paradise for sake lovers!

used burpple 1 for 1 for the mains - had the grilled salmon pasta (honestly 10/10 for us) & the steak pasta!

salmon pasta was such cheesy goodness i regretted not getting it for myself! was eyeing my friend's dinner the whole time 😆😆😆

the steak was not bad but the dish as a whole was js quite mediocre. the sauce was rly salty & the aglio olio js wasn't very fragrant. would not order again

total spent $28.80 for 2 dishes after discount - pretty worth !!!

While the Peach Smash & the Passionfruit Daiquiri from @sugarhallsg were equally exceptional, we finally have a winner that just managed to edge it over the previous duo. Honestly we may have done the second cocktail a disservice though, as it is still a charming cocktail, it just had the misfortune of getting ordered alongside the winner.⠀

The Melon Rum Sour (all single serve cocktails are $26++) reminded me of the melon ramune drink, thanks to the honeydew & Charentais melon which is a type of cantaloupe. Besides the sweet melons, Havana Club 3 year old rum, absinthe, lemon & thyme are mixed into this fruit forward cocktail, and the booze hits pretty hard here thanks to the absinthe. However, the melon flavours in the Melon Rum Sour did taste a little artificial, especially on the aftertaste.⠀
⠀
And now for the what was arguably the winning cocktail of the night, the brilliant Banana Highball. The use of discarded Banana Peel Rum was a 300 IQ move by Sugarhall’s mixologists, and the pleasant banana flavours held up robustly against the Amontillado sherry, green apple & black walnut bitters. At first sniff, it smells like delicious banana bread, and then notes of caramel start to arise. The flavour, on the other hand, was nearly purely caramel. It strongly reminded me of a Werther’s Original caramel sweet with the velvety caramel notes, with just a hint of banana at the end of every sip. Incredibly delicious, and the Banana Highball has us going bananas.⠀

Thank you so much for the invite, @sugarhallsg!

We started off fairly well at @sugarhallsg with the noteworthy opening cocktails, but the next pair were a couple of levels above. The Passionfruit Daiquiri and the Peach Smash (both $26++) were fabulously fruity & flavourful cocktails that concealed a potent punch. I’d call it a dead tie between both, as I absolutely adore the uniquely delicious quirks of each.⠀
⠀
The Passionfruit Daiquiri is a mix of 4 year old Bacardi rum, green tea, passionfruit and lime, and garnished with a gummy bear couple. Despite the rum being the sole spirit here, the daiquiri is still pretty powerful, although the green tea quells most of the alcoholic burn from the young rum. The sweetness of the passionfruit juice is kept in check by the spritz of lime, and is then evenly mixed into the green tea & rum concoction. The daiquiri is smooth, sweet and somehow tremendously thirst quenching, and the urge to just chug it all down is nigh unbearable. As for the little gummy bear couple that I eventually ate…I’m sorry, little ones.⠀
⠀
The Peach Smash was a truly smashing cocktail and is another single spirit drink, comprised of Woodford Reserve Bourbon, peach, rhubarb & lemon. This isn’t quite as quaff-able as the Daiquiri, but it’s definitely a stellar sipper. The velvety rich sweetness of the bourbon composes most of the drink’s weighty body, and it adds a delightful oak & smoke aroma to the cocktail. The peach is ripe & sweet, but kept in check by the sourness of the lemon & rhubarb. I can’t place my finger on why, but I am fairly certain that I tasted pear in there.⠀
⠀
Sugarhall’s cocktails are all sublime, but when it comes to the Passionfruit Daiquiri & the Peach Smash, I’d be like the Hulk and passionately smash, smash, suh-MASH! Thank you so much for the hospitality, @sugarhallsg!

Even if you can’t make it onto a sunny summer beach, you can still feel like you’re relaxing on one with a charming cocktail in hand at @sugarhallsg . A mojito is usually the first cocktail that comes to mind when anyone says “beach bar”, so naturally Sugarhall’s version had to be our first drink.⠀
⠀
The Iced Mojito ($26 before 10% service charge) is Sugarhall hitting the upgrade button on the standard mojito. Diplomático Planas Rum is muddled with mint and lime, but the usual soda water & simple syrup is substituted for crème de menthe & sugarcane ice. That’s right, Sugarhall froze sugarcane juice & turned it into ice! The mint from the crème de menthe and the muddled mint should be incredibly overpowering, but the sweetness from the crème and the sugarcane ice negated the pungency of the mint. The result is an extraordinarily easy to guzzle drink that’s satisfyingly sweet and refreshing, and it’s the ideal standard of a beach cocktail.⠀
⠀
The blue one is unsurprisingly named the Blue Lagoon (also $26+service charge), and the ingredient list on this one makes for interesting reading. Chardonnay vodka from @discardedspirits is mixed with coconut blue curaçao, cachaça and homemade lemonade, making for a mildly zesty drink that leaves an intriguing aftertaste of bubblegum. One thing I particularly enjoyed about both cocktails is how they manage to be tastefully sweet & delicious, but never cloying. Definitely a dangerous cocktail, but I do enjoy living on the edge from time to time.⠀

Thank you so much for the invite, Sugarhall!

Finally came back to try after about 2-3 years and decide to go for it again and got the roast meat char siew Rice ($4.50)

The roast meat has improved being the meat is not as salty anymore and the char siew is still good as always.

Loved it and will come back for it again

[MAXWELL, SINGAPORE] Finally back to Singapore and so glad to be eating great Chinese food again! This time was a surprise find at Maxwell Food Centre 😍

The Pan Fried Dumplings 🥟 ($7 for 10 pcs) from Xi Ying Ke was fabulous 👌when the dumplings were done, I was amazed by the crispy shell the dumplings were coated with! They were thin, crispy yet slightly flavourful which gave it an additional layer of texture. The dumpling skin itself was bouncy, and it was filled with meat and chives. The meat within was juicy and flavourful and it was perfect with some chilli and vinegar.

Definitely recommended when you're here in Maxwell Food Centre! Yes it's touristy but good food exists here too!

We tried for the 1st time grab delivery for this awesome platter that we usually eat in Sofra restaurant itself. It’s so pretty even in a take-out! Fed so many of us at home! Love it!

My partner and I had a pleasant experience here. Parmesan chizu chips are unique, good to share for about 3 pax. One of the freshest salmon sashimi I had, with a slight sweet aftertaste. Thank you for accommodating our request to change seats 🙏

Chillax Izakaya with spoilt for choice menu variety. Enjoyable food with good service. Try their cured octopus, mentalko potatoes, menraiko scallop , sashimi, yakitori!

Found this authentic Japanese Izakaya restaurant at the edge of CBD area. Nice cosy deco that bears much resemblance to many iazakaya joints you see in Japan.
My favourite was the tako wasabi which packed a punch. The assorted sashimi was fresh as well. The other highlights are the momo shio yakitori and rosti mentaiko which are flavourful and screamed Japan!
A recommended try esp if u are in the vicinity!
