Pumpkin soup
The soup was a bit light and could have been made more creamy.
Spaghetti with prawns and crabmeat
This dish tasted surprisingly better than what its presentation would suggest. I like my spaghetti al dente but unfortunately this one lacked the expected bite.
However, fresh crabmeat was used instead of artificial ones (Japanese style), which did score some points.
Squid ink risotto
To the contrary of our pasta, the squid ink risotto was made a bit hard for our liking. The risotto also did not carry enough of the squid flavour. Disappointing.
Overall, it was a slightly below average dining experience (deserved 2.5 points for taste but unfortunately no such option here) and for similar prices, we would prefer the neighbouring DAP and Al Baita. But if you are ever tired of always going to the same places, this is definitely an option.
