Cheap and Tasty: Enjoy Date Night at Yappari Steak VivoCity

ABBEY: If you’re a steak lover, Yappari Steak should be on your must-visit list. Although you might encounter a long queue, trust me—it’s well worth the wait! Each order of their perfectly cooked steaks comes with unlimited servings of fresh salad, fluffy Japanese rice, and hot soup, making it an unbeatable deal.

On my first visit, I ordered the signature Yappari Steak, and on my second, I tried the Mix Cut. Both were incredibly tender, rich, and full of flavor with a smooth, milky texture. A word of caution: the hot stone they serve the steak on stays sizzling, so handle it carefully!
While the steak is delicious on its own, I highly recommend pairing it with their garlic sauce—it’s a game-changer. I enjoyed it so much that I went through four servings of rice and multiple bowls of soup!

WILL: I’ve been stopping by VivoCity a lot lately. It’s my go-to spot when I want to avoid a long walk to the MRT. But now, there’s an even better reason to make the trip. Dinner! 

Yappari Steak is always buzzing with activity, and you can expect to wait at least 15 minutes during peak hours. But trust me, it’s worth it! The beef here is amazing, perfectly balanced between tender meat and just the right amount of fat. The cooks really know their stuff—they make sure the steaks don’t overcook, even if you leave them sizzling on the hot plate a bit too long.

My favorite has to be the hamburg steak; it’s so juicy and comforting. And don’t even get me started on the mixed-cut steaks—they’re incredibly tender. One of the best parts? Yappari Steak offers all-you-can-eat rice, soup, and salad, so you can really fill up and enjoy your meal!

I can’t recommend this place enough—let’s stop gatekeeping such a gem! The prices are fantastic, with sets starting at just SGD 16.80. See you at Yappari Steak!

HUBER’S BUTCHERY THE BISTRO: CHEAP WITH A QUALITY STEAK IN SINGAPORE

ABBEY: Another restaurant to satisfy your steak cravings but not break the bank. I got medium-well hanger steak with sides of potato tartiflette (premium version of potato with cheese), corn and chimichurri sauce. 

My beef is tender and juicy; no tough part. And the corn kernels almost fall off the cob. As for the potato, it is blanketed by melted gruyere cheese. Adjacent to the restaurant is their butchery. Pick your choices of meat and take them home.

HUBER’S BUTCHERY THE BISTRO: CHEAP WITH A QUALITY STEAK IN SINGAPORE

WILL: Steak is one of the intimidating foods to eat. There are rules on how to cook the meat itself and etiquettes to follow while eating in a steakhouse. Well, that breaks your comfort zone if you are always prompted to dine in a fast food chain. Right? But here comes Huber’s Bistro located few steps away from Singapore Botanic Gardens. 

The Bistro's aura is friendly and accommodating. Not too casual but not too fancy either. It is like a diner ambiance that staffs are willing to go beyond to serve you and know you better. So how’s the steak? It is flavourful and definitely not came from a frozen meat. It is tender, milky and juicy! The price? Starts at $24! It is like you are buying a raw meat of 200grams. 

They have their own butchery that might explain their affordable pricing for the steaks. Ha! This is our favourite place for steaks right now! Visit them whenever you are Singapore Botanic Gardens

Best and Luxurious Steak in Singapore | Wolfgang's Steakhouse by Wolfgang Zwiener - $300++ Lunch

ABBEY: A celebration calls for Wilma’s Natal Day as well as for our wedding anniversary. This time we got a table at Wolfgang’s Steakhouse. Yes, splurge and make memories. 

We grabbed the opportunity to taste the 5-course Wolfgang Experience. For appetizers we got tuna tartare, lobster salad and shrimp cocktail while dessert is a key lime pie. And for the main course we opted for lamb chops. Aside from that we requested for a serving of rib eye steak and a port wine. 

Timing is everything. While waiting for the entrees we were busy trying to finish the soup, and starters. The mains didn’t disappoint. They are tender, cooked to perfection and delicious. Each bite is indulgence. The key lime pie gave a refreshing taste to our pallet. It is tangy, sweet and sour. Perfect for my wine. Can I have another steak please?

WILL: Sometimes, there’s a craving that won’t be satisfied by a buffet. That is the right time to look for a specialty restaurant. In this case, we went to Wolfgang Steakhouse for a delectable steak fix. Wolfgang is one of the best rated steakhouse not only here in Singapore but based on Google search can say around the globe.

Restaurant is located at Intercontinental’s 3rd Floor. The ambiance is not that serene but the tables are pretty far that you can’t hear the other diners. The service is superb! It seems that the Wolfgang folks known you for years! Wolfgang totally meet my expectations for a fine dine restaurant.

I prefered The Wolfgang Experience. It is only available for lunch on a weekdays and it is comprised of appetizer, soup or salad, entrée with 2 sides and dessert. Appetizer alone will make your tummy full! Gladly, just ordered one of this lunch set. My entrée of choice was Australian Lamb Chops (SGD128), the meat is soft and the milky smell of the lamb is so inviting! drool.

I booked this lunch date and little did I know that Wolfgang and my husband talked and suprised me with a slice of birthday cake. Gosh! So touching!

Wolfgang Steakhouse is really recommended for you to try and to have a visit if you are longing for a quality steak.
