Burpple Beyond

The plant-based burgers taste as good as the real deal with double impossible beef patty, melted cheese, and secret sauce. Richly flavoured with juicy middle and slight char on the edges. Besides the stringy texture and reduced meaty flavour, it’s quite hard to tell apart from real beef unless paying close attention. Available as part of a burpple beyond set that comes with crispy thin cut fries and coke or alacarte at $16.

An overall highly satisfying and filling meal, but did wish for some fresh greens to cut through the richness.

1-1 mains: Enjoyed the Bikini sandwich (3.5 ⭐️; $13) that was classic ham and cheese done well in perfectly toasted bread. Did find it too rich when paired with chips and would have preferred it with salad. The smoked salmon bagel (3 ⭐️; $14) was unfortunately tough.

Burpple set ($17.90)
⭐️ 4/5 ⭐️
🍴Former BBT shop Cha Nung has rebranded and introduced taiwanese food at affordable prices (mains from $7.90), made more value-for-money with @burpple beyond. Each set comes with two mains and two bubble teas.

We enjoyed both our chosen mains that were classic taiwanese fare done well in being flavourful and hearty. Have always been a fan of 卤肉饭 (braised pork rice) and theirs had well-marinated pork and rice with good lean meat:fat ratio, alongside fresh carrot and cucumber. The 牛肉汤 beef soup noodle (+$1 to the set) had ultra tender beef pieces and thin-cut light noodles (almost beancurd-like) in a fragrant beef stock with light spicy undertones.

The signature milk tea was a tad too milky, and would have preferred stronger tea notes. The passionfruit green tea was refreshing and tangy with a bittersweet profile.

𝐒𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐮𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐟 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐤𝐞𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐰 ($21/24) - Rich and creamy coconut beef stew enhanced with fragrant spices, savory parmesan cheese, lime zest, and chili. Paired well with the thin and crispy papadom and soft sourdough bread (there is also the option to have it with coconut rice).

Burpple set ($50/2pax)

🍴Mouth-watering truffle wagyu bowl that tastes as good as it looks! Personally would have liked for leaner cuts of beef but the fatty wagyu was sinfully tender and juicy goodness. Marinated in a sweet-salty sauce distinctly fragranced with truffle without being too cloying. The onsen egg added creaminess while the juicy mushrooms and freshly shaved truffle deepened the flavour.

We enjoyed the perfectly torched and chewy scallops. Topped with ebiko and savory mentaiko sauce that wasn’t too creamy. Only wish was for thicker cuts of scallop.

The food is on the pricier side but made more worth it with the Burpple discount (only available at this outlet). The alacarte truffle wagyu bowl is $25 so one can see it as getting free mentaiko scallop ($13) and a drink ($7 for refreshing Asahi beer/ $5 for a non-alcoholic soda) with the set.

Didn’t have high expectations given the focus on beer and drinks here. So this pizza impressed in being thin crust, crispy, and generously loaded with ingredients - tender duck, sweet teriyaki sauce, creamy egg. Nothing wow but satisfying, especially when it’s under $10 with burpple discount.

Do note that there are 2 pages worth of terms and conditions when using burpple (which the staff will hand out for you to read 😅)

Checked out this newly opened Japanese eatery/ bar space opposite Pasir Panjang MRT as there was 1-1 donburi with @burpple.

Sashimi slices were quite thick, mostly decent and fresh. Enjoyed the juicy pops of ikura and fluffy egg. However, if not for the discount, this would be considered pricey for the current portion and cuts of fish. Paired with a small bowl of miso soup that was on the slightly salty side.

Went for a gin tasting but this off the tasting menu was our favourite of the night

If only they sold this bottled!

Burpple deal turned out to be so restrictive that we abandoned it 😅. Had to purchase a >$12 item and the free item would only be mango pomelo/ black sesame.

This was HUGE! Def need to share among 4-5. Wasn’t anything great with the matcha more of green tea floral-ish but liked the generous toppings of red bean, taro & mango ball, and rice crispies. Ice was smooth enough

Would skip the Har Jeong Kai ($14) - it was crispy but pretty bland and could be better marinated.

Top recommend: jam packed with robust lemak flavours and textures from the seafood mix

Super flavourful with strong wok hei, topped with tender pork meat
