October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and L’Espresso is doing its part by crafting a pink-inspired spread for its afternoon tea. Each diner this month will receive a Breast Cancer Foundation pink ribbon pin worth $2; the value of all the pins given out will be donated to the Breast Cancer Foundation (BCF).

Aside from helping out this worthy cause, you’ll also be indulging yourself in exclusive sweet treats—from a pink chocolate fountain to pink chocolate crunch domes, strawberry chiffon rolls and berry macarons.

Keep in mind that these are additions to its already extensive afternoon spread of salads, sandwiches, desserts, and those traditional English scones.

If you like your meats tender and smoky, you’ll enjoy this aptly named Thrill of the Grill dinner special happening from October 5 to 21. This is the brainchild of new executive chef Yap Wai Lunn, who will be serving up a dazzling array of lamb shish kebabs, wagyu beef cubes and pork belly char siew, cooked over charcoal at the restaurant’s outdoor barbecue station.

This is a buffet spread, so do have your fill of other sumptuous local favourites too. The kueh pie tee is always a treat, and the laksa noodles and chilli crab pasta never fails to satisfy.

The new burgers here, available until November 30, are made with exceptional Hida wagyu beef; from Japanese black-haired cows raised up to14 months in the best conditions in the Gifu Prefecture of the Chūbu region. More imporatntly, the meat is exquisitely marbled and tender—and make perfect patties too.

Taste it in the Beastly Burger, a gigantic 12-inch burger that will surely leave you satisfied for the rest of the day, or the Nyonya Hida Wagyu Beef Burger, a localised version where the meat is imbued with Peranakan spices, and sandwiched between lemongrass-turmeric buns.

If you prefer the classic, have the Pacific Hida Wagyu Beef Burger, which comes with glistening bacon strips and gooey cheese. The set comes with garden salad and crispy potato bravas too—just in case you’re still hungry.
