Nothing gets Singaporeans more hyped up than an opportunity to feast to their heart’s content at a buffet. Yet, dining at buffet restaurants are often a costly affair that—while enjoyable—does take quite a serious toll on one’s bank account.

Here’s where eatigo comes in—offering the very same indulgent dining experience of a hotel buffet but at discounted prices, diners who make their reservations through the app get to enjoy up to 50% off their dining bills.

What’s more, on top of the attractive time-based discounts, Standard Chartered Credit Cardholders are entitled to an additional S$5 Eatigo Cash Voucher off their dining bill!

When it comes to the King of Fruits, there is no sitting on the fence—you either love it or hate it. And fortunately for those who belong to the former group, durian desserts are aplenty in Singapore; durian puffs, durian crepes, durian cakes and even durian lapis—you name it, we have it.

If you are a true durian fan, you would enjoy the fruit in any form it takes. The durian pengat, however, is another league of its own entirely. Smooth, creamy and luxurious, this delightful (or sinful) treat tends to be full-flavoured and comes in a mousse-like texture. Since it is not as commonly found like the rest of the durian desserts, we never shy away from second or third helpings whenever it is available.

Here are 7 Best Durian Pengat In Singapore And Where To Find Them.

#1 STRAITS CAFE

Offering the best of halal Straits-inspired food under one roof, Straits Cafe has one of the best spreads for regional fare—think kueh pie tee, chic kut teh and more. However, durian fans have to make a beeline for their durian dessert counter which features durian crepe, durian cakes and their signature durian pengat.

You can expect only the real deal when it comes to their durian pengat as it comes with real durian flesh and we absolutely love the silky texture.

#2 J65

Best known for their themed buffet nights, J65 never fails to impress when it comes to seafood-centric buffets that come with affordable price tags. The dessert section is something we always look forward to as it is nothing short of mind-blowing.

You can find everything from western cakes to freshly baked Nonya Kuehs, tarts and mousses and an assortment of traditional Potong ice cream flavours…but of course, it is their excellent durian pengat that has us going for extra helpings.

#3 SINPOPO BRAND

Sinpopo Brand along the cafe-laden Joo Chiat Road is a nostalgic retro cafe that offers local food that comes with an interesting twist. Opened by Awfully Chocolate, Sinpopo Brand’s Durian Pengat (S$9) is served all year round and you need not wait till it is the durian season to enjoy this dessert!

The rich durian mousse is topped off with a refreshing scoop of coconut ice cream and some crisp browned butter croutons.

#4 SPICE BRASSERIE

We’re suckers for anything containing durian but what we particularly love about Spice Brasserie’s Durian Pengat—available as part of its local food buffet—is the fact that despite it having a strong aroma of the fruit itself, the flavour was nice and mellow.

Sweet, the way it should be, the velvety smooth dessert boasts a buttery flavour, a reflection of the high-quality durians that they use. Served with warm sticky rice, a lightly salted coconut cream and fried tau suan, the otherwise mousse-like dessert is taken to a whole new level and after much trial and error, the chefs really nailed it.
