Took me 25mins to place order for me and 2 others… Burpple code redemption part is fine, but the experience on the Heybo online ordering was a true pain - slow to load and select your BYObowl, requires you to sign in to use Burpple redemption, then requires your credit card to be added, and I was constantly getting error message here without much info to troubleshoot…

Food is nice and worth with the Burpple code!

That cross section of a sandwich that tasted every bit as good as it looked. A special mention on the tangy rich aioli like sauce that was impossible to resist and went well with the classic combination of avocado, scrambled eggs and melted cheese.
You’d dream about this vegeterian sandwich.

Loved their Hakka Yong Tau Foo (SGD $15) rendition, which features 6 large pieces of ingredients, all stuffed with a filling of tender minced pork and soft fish paste. There's 2 spongy tofu bean curd puffs, 1 crisp yellow bell pepper, 2 wispy bean curd skin wraps, 1 crunchy bitter gourd, and 1 springy tofu bean curd. Immersed in a thick soy bean gravy, these carry grainy vegetal meaty sweet savoury salty earthy flavours. Very filling, great when paired with white rice.
.
The Steamed Whole Sea Bass Fish Hong Kong Style In Soy Sauce (SGD $32) features a fresh sea bass fish, medium in size (about 600g - 700g), with tender flaky fish meat. Dressed with crisp parsley, scallions, and red chili, which lend vegetal sweet spice flavour. The robust soy sauce gravy carries bold salty earthy savoury flavour, lifting the overall taste of the dish.
.
Loved the ample gravy in the Tropical Fruits Sweet & Sour Pork (SGD $18), which is thick and sour sweet in flavour. The chunks of tender chewy pork loin have meaty sweet sour savoury flavour, while the juicy fruits (lychee, pineapple, strawberry) lend fruity sweet flavour, and the crunchy cucumber lends a cooling vegetal sweet note.

The Tang Yuan Mixed (SGD $6.40) features 2 unique flavours. The Tang Yuan Green Tea With Black Sesame Paste has chewy green tea infused glutinous rice exterior with a grainy thick chunky black sesame paste interior, bursting with earthy nutty sweet flavour. The Tang Yuan With Custard Paste has chewy glutinous rice exterior with a grainy thick chunky custard interior, bursting with salty savoury sweet flavour. Both are served in a warm ginger soup / broth with herbal sweet spice flavour.
.
The Kai-Lan With Olive Leaves And Garlic (SGD $16) has large crunchy stalks of kai-lan / Chinese kale / Chinese broccoli with vegetal sweet flavour, dressed with wispy deep-fried olive leaves with vegetal earthy savoury bitter flavour, and crisp fried garlic chips with savoury salty spice flavour. The contrast of textures and flavours is pleasant and unique.
.
The Spinach In Trio Egg Broth (SGD $18) is more a soup than a vegetable dish, with leaves of crisp spinach, a trio of bouncy eggs (regular chicken eggs, salted eggs, and century eggs), and soft wolfberries / goji berries, in a warm soup / broth. Infused with the flavour of the ingredients, this carries lovely vegetal sweet salty savoury earthy herbal flavour.

.
It's stir-fried with crunchy bean sprouts, wispy chicken egg, chewy dried shrimp, and crisp spring onions, this carries an addictive eggy vegetal sweet savoury salty spice flavour, yum.
.
With The Squid Game (SGD $22), I like that it's non-greasy, the chunks of battered salt and pepper octopus (yes octopus, not squid...) having a gentle crunch to the exterior and a bouncy chew to the interior.
.
Tossed with crisp young celery, flat dried red chili, and crunchy sesame seeds, each bite bursts with nutty savoury salty spice sweet flavour.
.
The Black Truffle Prawn Omelette (SGD $23) has lovely chunky soft egg omelette with eggy savoury salty sweet flavour, dressed with tiny black truffle shavings and truffle oil which lends an earthy taste to the dish.
.

I really believe this is one of the best cafes in Singapore, as it checks all the boxes: beautiful aesthetics, relaxing atmosphere and best of all, good coffee.

I got myself an Iced White ($5.50) and I loved how it comes in a nice cup that actually helps the coffee to stay cold for a longer period of time. The coffee itself is very aromatic, boasting both nutty and chocolate notes altogether. It was very rich and stayed flavourful throughout the hour while I was there. The milk and ice ratio were also perfect.

I definitely see myself coming back here frequently, as long as I am around the area. Great for any occasion, you should pay a visit here one day!cks all the boxes: beautiful aesthetics, relaxing atmosphere and best of all, good coffee.

I decided to go budget for set meal as I decided to get meatless minestrone soup (not bad but quite waterish), chicken ham & cheese sandwich (really don't like tomato and overall i did enjoy sandwich) and bottled water ($9.90) and also free soup samples (lobster bits) I didn't aware abt it until I saw receipt lol.

3.5⭐️/5 MYO sushi
Burpple 1-for-1
[$10.90]

Pretty good sushi roll. Gochujang chicken is pretty well seasoned but don’t think it goes that well for a sushi roll. Would prefer it better if 2 sushi rolls can select a different choice!

If you are looking for some quality Western fare, this is one cafe to go to. I find their dinner menu much better than their brunch/lunch options and decided to try more! They seemed to have refreshed their menu recently and here are the dishes I've had:

1️⃣ Chicken Parmigiana ($24) - the huge piece of chicken cutlet was tender yet succulent and wasn't too salty. The thick layer of cheese just made it even better, due to its added richness. Definitely one dish you ought to share!

2️⃣ Grilled Salmon Pasta ($23) - I loved the thick meaty piece of salmon given. It was fresh, flaky and the salmon skin was done well due to its crispiness! The al dente pasta is drenched in a thick creamy sauce which had the right consistency to cling on the pasta well.

3️⃣ Angus Beef Stew ($26) - the beef was very soft and I loved how it wasn't too gamey! They won us over with their mashed potatoes actually, as it was incredibly smooth and buttery. Wished we had a bowl of this 😍

Best part is that their food items are applicable for 30% discount using #burpplebeyond ! Sad they didn't have their brussel sprouts, as they were hella addictive. Will come back again!

Another one of my must claim birthday freebies is SOUP SPOON!

It used to be a free $5 voucher with no minimum spending, but now there is a required minimum spending of $15 in order to redeem the voucher.

The free $5 birthday voucher can be used for dining in or takeaway. To order, you will need to either order from the mobile app and apply the birthday voucher, or use the kiosk and scan your mobile app e-card.

If you do not wish to order a heavy filling set, best to get a dining buddy along to order 2 ala carte soups!

My favourite soup is the VELVETY MUSHROOM STROGANOFF ($9.10)! Always order this soup 75% of the times! (The other times I will opt for the boston clam chowder soup for the SG Chicken & Mushroom Ragout.)

This time round, decided to be adventurous, and got the new souperchef special Chicken Cacciatore with Portobello and Sage ($9.50)! The only difference between this and SG Chicken and Mushroom Ragout is that the latter has some pasta in it.

But still, all time favourite mushroom soup triumphs!

Savoury & buttery but not too oily/dry. Really can see & taste the spinach shreds & onion bits
