Suprette

Suprette have pretty good burgers. The ingredients including the meat were fresh. If I was close I would duck by on the weekend every now and then for a burger at lunch. The atmosphere is what lets this place down a little. It’s quite dark in there. However the hostess was very friendly and had a good sense of humour. So ⁴⁄₅ for the food and ³⁄₅ for the atmosphere.

Great service and tasty food. A really chilled vibe. The burger was thick and juicy and the coffee was just the right strength.

free flow fries, what more can I say?
place a tad small but very personal.
Burger buns are buttered well. it’s not the best mind flowing burger but definitely surpass the overrated ones like fatboys or so.

Suprette has appeared on a number of best burger lists and it doesnt disappoint.
Just writing about it now makes my mouth salivate. Damn!
The burger is flavorful and juicy, the shoestring fries are delicious (and unlimited!!), and the buttery bun is sooo good. I normally have my burgers «topless» but this one i make an exception for.
Not many people mention this, but i think the chicken burger is EVEN BETTER than the beef! If im with a dining buddy, we usually order 1 beef and 1 chicken burger and split them. Mmm mm mmm!
My one complaint: the burgers are a little on the small side for $ 25 (dinner price, which also comes with a small starter salad. Lunch is $ 20, i think) but i guess thats what the unlimited fries are for!
dinner for two with 1 starter, 2 burgers and beer was almost $ 100. Not a place i can go to everyday but if really hits the spot if youre craving a burger

I currently live in the Land That Beef Forgot, so when I travel I like to grab a good burger. Suprette was on the «best burger list» on many a food blog, so I decided to check it out. I was not disappointed.
The atmosphere is pure classic diner (at least by US standards) from the turquoise colored walls to the red neon sign S U P R E T T E. Tucked into an artsy hotel on Jalan Besar, it was a nice escape from the generic shopping malls that adorn this fair city.
I like my burgers medium well, which sometimes leave them dry in unskilled hands, but this one was super-​juicy. I believe I detected a bit of bribery-​by-​butter in the nicely seasoned beef. The bacon was generous, the gruyère nicely balanced and there was a hint of vegetable (lettuce leaf, tomato slice) all brought together into a well-​balanced dish that was a bit on the classic grease-​bomb side. The classic shoestring fries as a side were well done.
They had a «happy hour» of house wine and beer during Sunday brunch, though I decided to add a cocktail to the meal. It was quite good – I’ll be back for dinner next time and enjoy a larger sampling of their libations.

This restaurant is placed in a hotel, but still keeps it’s own identity, creating a pleasant atmosphere. The food is not cheap, but the quality is good and the portions are reasonable. Friendly staff, nice music! We only had breakfast (eggs, yoghurt with fruit) and were satisfied. It’s not cheap though, but considering the other options in this neighborhood this is a good place to visit.

Been here three times — once for dinner, two lunches.
Had the Suprette burger on three occasions. Liked that they always toast the buttered buns properly on the inside as well. Patties charred and well rested. Not overdone. There are topping options: Onion relish is unremarkable, Foie Gras was okay, rather gelatinous.
On the last visit, I had the breakfast option of Shakshuka at lunch, it was pretty good. Some good heat after. On this occasion, the next table was served burgers with burnt buns. Those diners didn’t seem to mind and walloped the lot. Burning seemed to be the order of the day. They had the apple pie listed as a special, which I wanted, but didn’t actually have. Would I like a pecan pie instead? Sure. Came served with a Pocky stick and mini colourful marshmallows and ice cream. But it was burnt. Burnt pecans, burnt filling, burnt crust. I tried as much to finish it because I hate wasting food, but it was burnt. Didn’t like the marshmallows either. Also, this is the first time I’ve been here and anywhere else where the waitress said «let me tell you what we don’t have today.» Hmmm…
On the dinner meal, besides the Suprette Burger I had the apple pie with ice cream. The crust was short and well baked, with good colour. Also had the Five Spice Chicken Wings that are not available on the lunch menu. I liked them. They came with a chilli and dark soy sauce on the side.
On the first lunch here, I had just the Suprette Burger. Comes with generous portion of fries. It’s the reason why I’ve returned. But as you can see from my latest experience, there are misses.
Service is inconsistent. Sometimes it was fine, sometimes not. And it doesn’t matter if there’s a big crowd or not. Seating is limited and sometimes it’s nearly completely empty, and then suddenly it’ll be packed.

Once again I say get the Suprette burger. An excellent burger with an intensely buttery bun. BUTTERY. Mmmm.
Coffee just ok.
A friend had the pecan pie and it was overbaked and the pecans were lao hong. Alas. And why add mini marshmallows to the pie?! What am I, five years old? C’mon. Pie disappointing. Just get the burger.

I have been here many times for various events. There is an outdoor rooftop deck which serves as a good event and bbq venue. The first time was for a screening of some Singapore shorts and I must say it was really pleasant sitting in the evening breeze watching movies while munching on fries and roasted spring chicken. The chicken was roasted just right, crispy skin with juicy meat. That was probably why I had way too many beers and felt kind of dizzy when I descended the stairs. Luckily there were plenty of other food options to save me when our party retreated to the restaurant downstairs. The peanut butter and jam caught my eye just when I needed some comfort food badly. To my pleasant surprise it came with huge scope of ice cream, the toast was grilled, it had bananas (Iove everything with bananas) and the jam came in the form of a berry compote and the whole thing just felt like a deluxe version of the normal pbj your mom would have made for you at home. The interior, like the Kam Leng hotel it is attached to, is quirky and interesting with a dash of nostalgia, making it the perfect place to hang out with friends into the wee hours of the night.

Just okay, quite average food and expensive for what you get. Would give it 2.5 stars if that were an option. But it is not three stars.
I went here with good expectations due to reviews. Had a craving for a burger so decided to give it a go.
The place is small and in an out of the way hotel, which is great. We ordered — all at the server’s suggestions — chicken wings (best of all), burger (average) and pork chop (not good). The pork chop came with not a sprinkle of salt, pepper or other seasoning so literally as bland as you can get. But it did have a not great but gave it a shred of flavor coleslaw on top (why add a cold coleslaw atop a hot pork chop but whatever). So, asked for a bit more slaw as two tablespoons was not enough. Was told no. Then told that I could order a side of other (different flavor) cole slaw for $ 5. So, just got salt and pepper and make it better myself.
Maybe an off night? It happens. I will try again for brunch but never again for dinner. So, so disappointed! :(

Wanted a US breakfast. This place was the closest to my hotel. Ordered western omelette. I actually loved it and the service was good too. The most delicious Was the toast and a butter. The temperature and everything was fresh and deliciously served.

I don’t know what it is about this place. I either come here to get drunk or come here for a remedy after I’ve drunk. This is also the place where I infamously had 3.61 532 drinks at one of the earlier CMYE’s and made it a point to tell it to everyone via my Unilocal name tag.*
Anyway, though I’ve been to Suprette for various reasons, I will write about the time I came here for breakfast. I was vodka infused but not hungover** so the husband and I were looking for a solid place to help us feel regular again.
Though their savouries sounded enticing, we were both in the mood for something sweet so we ordered the chocolate pancakes and the spiced French toast. I thought my French toast was perfect– the brioche was soft but not soggy, and even though there was both syrup and a berry compote, I didn’t find it overly sweet.
It was tempting to order coffee, but since my throat was a bit sore (let’s just say vodka makes me a little loud in the club) I opted for some chamomile tea.
We left, tummies full, throat feeling better, and ready to pass out mid-​day to finally catch up on the sleep we didn’t get the night before! #AuntiesAndUncles

*I was a Unilocal civilian at the time. Forgive me, for I know not what I did.
**There is a difference!

I woke up Sunday morning after a heavy night of drinking at Butter Factory and was craving for something sweet. I figure the sweetness would remove any remnants of the vodka infused drinks I had the night before. Enter Suprette and it’s American-​inspired Breakfast Menu.
Many of Suprette’s breakfast meals range in the SGD12−15 price range, which for Singapore is AMAZING value. Wanting to satisfy my sweet tooth, I zeroed in on the Spiced French Toast — brioche, berry compote & golden syrup and Chocolate Chip Pancakes — Banana & mascarpone cream. Simply put, both dishes did not disappoint. The French toast was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside topped off with some juicy sweet compote goodness. Reminds me so much of the brunches I had back home in Brooklyn!
The Chocolate Chip Pancakes were to die for. For those who know me, I love banana and chocolates. To mix the two ingredients together on anything, means that nine times out of ten I will LOVE the dish. The chocolate juice was perfectly inserted inside the pancakes and just oozed out naturally after each bite. The banana toppings were a nice touch. However, the real winner in this dish is not my two favorite ingredients, but rather the mascarpone cream! Let me say it again, mascarpone! I don’t know how they made it, but WOW. Slather your chocolate pancakes with this special cream, add a few banana slices, and eat all these items in one bite and I swear to you, it will satisfy any sweet craving!
Great Value, Cute Atmosphere, and Fantastic Food spell 5-​stars in my book!

…proving that you really can do a lot with a little if you have a superb bartender, a menu stacked with comfort food stalwarts and a great playlist.
Fitting snugly in a wedge of a space, Suprette epitomizes a lot with a little. And while sometimes I wish they were a little more [insert: spacious, affordable, well-​prepared], they make up for with a lot of [insert: lovely service, free flowing fries]. I have had some «misses» on menu items, (vegetarian options both times) so it seems the safe bet here is to order a classic cocktail from the bar and go for the burger. Or skip both of those and just order the s’mores!

The starter, corn nibblets was interesting!
I like the burger here, but not the 40 minutes waiting time…
The patty was thick and the additional bacon was crispy and a must!
The fries were shoestring style! It was supposed to be free flow but we were too full to ask for more~
I was only missing out on my sambal ABC!
I saw that they have interesting brunch menu, I may come back again to try.

Been there today. And the service was left a lot to be desired today. Apparently if you bring your own birthday cake, they would have charged us $ 35 bucks to eat it there. The person whom I assume was in charge decided to have a change of mind about that charge at the last minute. We almost had to proceed down to Lavender Food Court just to have the birthday boy enjoy his cake. Service was a bit rude from the start as well.
Burger was slightly above average and the appetisers took at more than half an hour to arrive.
The prices were definitely above average though.
I’ve had my fair share of great burger joints and for the price and bad service, I don’t think I’ll be back here anytime soon.
I forgot to add that they had the Cake & Suede album on repeat… i like both bands, but a little bit more variety would be nice.

This is a review of dinner at Suprette.
I’ve wanted to try their burger for awhile.
The ambiance has the feel of a hip coffee shop or small café. This is not a very large restaurant. Well, unless there is another part I didn’t see. It is a clean and neat space. I will say that due to the acoustics and size, this is not a particularly good spot to have a private conversation.
The service was extremely good. I was quickly greeted and seated. Soon after, my order was taken. The staff was very friendly and polite. Considering it was obviously made to order, the food came out pretty fast.
Lime Juice — They have very good lime juice. I do not know if it is fresh or not. It certainly seemed like it. There was a nearly perfect blend of sweet and tart.
Suprette Burger + bacon + extra gruyère — This was a very good burger. The ingredients were all of a high standard and it was put together well. Visually, it is a very impressive burger. When you first look at it, you have to wonder if you will be able to take a bite out of it. It is a burger with a lot of verticality.
The texture and taste of the beef was not exactly to my own personal taste. I also thought the burger would have been better if it was every so slightly less cooked. The other ingredients easily made up for these personal taste issues. The veggies were fresh and crisp. The consistency of the bun was just right. There were a lot of ingredients but it held up well. They were very generous with the beef and the bacon. This is a burger that fills you up.
I really enjoyed the fries that came with their burger. They were a shoestring like fry. They were perfectly cooked and seasoned. I could eat a pound of them.
Side Salad — This came with the burger. Honestly, I did not try it. The ingredients looked to be of high-​quality and very fresh.
Receipt (Dinner for one) $ 38.50
Any way you look at it, this is an expensive burger meal. I leave it to others to decide if they think it is too expensive. I have certainly eaten many burgers that were as good or better that were much less expensive. But, that was not on an island in the middle of South East Asia. This is a burger that is well-​prepared and made from quality ingredients. I assume almost all of these ingredients are being shipped from somewhere else.
Overall — Small but comfortable ambiance. Very friendly and effective staff. Impressive burger from the ground up. It ranks with the best burgers I’ve tried in Singapore. For me, Suprette was certainly worth the visit.

i can comment on the food now:)
truth be told, i couldn’t resist going back, to try their food out, the very next day!
no reservations made but we were lucky to get a table for 4 on a sat morning.
brunch is served on weekends, so you can choose from either breakfast or lunch menu! yay!
the same staff, working fri night, were here again this morning!
they must really like working here?!
latte needs improvement.
way too weak.
the burger, like most Unilocalers find it, is good.
thick juicy patty that is well seasoned featuring herbs.
shoe string fries, unlimited, will make you addicted.
bun is well toasted and held it’s shape well.
ricotta pancakes with honey butter and bananas was nice too.
fluffy pancakes stuffed with ricotta, lots of bananas and please remember to melt the honey butter over your hot pancakes for sweeter enjoyment.
corn fritters were sweet kernels loosely battered.
a lighter alternative for those not quite ready to stuff their faces so early in the morning.
corned beef hash was ok.
2 fried eggs on top of cubes of corned beef and potatoes.
small joint that is getting really popular.
so i’m sure i’ll bump into you here!

The restaurant-​bar-​café Suprette is quite the perfect choice for a light meal even if you are not staying at the budget boutique Kam Leng Hotel. The small and cosy set up has a really lean menu (5 mains for lunch/​dinner) but i like that the dishes don’t overlap in terms of similarity in taste/​textures.
The Suprette Burger ($ 19) is a medium rare Beef patty orgasm. Well marinated and juicy with that slightly charred exterior, each bite was spilling with the essence of the meat. Garlic lovers would adore this burger but it may be slightly (just a lil) overpowering for others. Love the buttery crisp toasted sesame bun which really held the burger together nicely and tasted good even on its own. The pile of shoestring fries will fill you up for sure even if the burger doesn’t. I only wish there to be truffle fries though.
I chose the Chicken Pot Pie ($ 14), a glorious 7−8inch golden pastry sun. The buttery and flaky sheet envelops the creamy gravy of carrots, peas, potatoes and chicken that is held in the shallow iron pan. This has got to be the best Pot Pie i’ve had in ages. I think it’s better than M Hotel’s pot pie because it’s not too creamy and heavy.
If you are a cheese lover, the Welsh Rabbit aka Cheese on toast ($ 13) would be your poison. It is plastered with a good 1.5cm of Gruyère cheese and the works and then toasted. The stinkiness and saltiness of the strong tasting cheese would knock you over (in the good way). The toast (2 slices) may look depressing next to the humongous burger but it is extremely filling. We liked the homemade bbq sauce baked beans (very refreshing) that is served with the toast as well.

You have to get the burger here. You just have to. You will look at the menu, and you will think seriously about the hanger steak and marrow, or maybe the crab quesadil– BUT I DIGRESS.
YOU WILL GET THE BURGER.
And stuff yourself silly trying to finish it. Or die trying.
It’s like a fist of meat attacking your mouth. It’s just that big. You open wide and try to take a bite, and BAM — it’s that meat-​fist punching you with that beefy goodness. and you’ll like it, yes ma’am.
I haven’t described the pillowy soft bun, that is lightly toasted (and is COVERED in sesame seeds — good thing I like ‘em), nor the mountain of shoestring fries (free flow with every order of mains; fellow fat kids rejoice).
You will finish your meal with a cocktail. Speak to Zach, and he’ll make you something crazy. Who knows what he’s got behind the counter.
You will stagger out, partly from the burger, and you will go to bed happy.
