Lunch for 2 at Bombana’s new restaurant. Nice decor. Love the plates. Interesting wine list. Went for a glass of Chardonnay. Yum.Manager recommended the set menu, esp the meat ragout fettuccine and red prawn linguine as pastas; and the half baby chicken as main. 2 choices of bread: sour dough and focaccia. I agreed with Picky Eater that bread was the soul of a restaurant. Here, the bread was delicious: hot enough, crispy crust, soft in the middle. Olive oil was good too.Shared the tomato soup an

Shared the tomato soup and grilled octopus salad as appetizers. Octopus was grilled to perfection; tomatoes were sweet and juicy. Loved the crispy smoky sourdough.

Tomato soup was yummy: perfect acidity.

Since the appetizers were on the small side, we were taken aback to see the massive fettuccine portion. Fettuccine was springy and reminded me of the Chinese 粗麵 from the wanton shops.

Portion of linguine was smaller, too al dente for me. Prawns were fresh.

Roast half chicken was surprisingly good, fragrantly coated in chopped herbs; crispy skin, tender meat.

For dessert, shared the apple tart which came with vanilla IceCream. 2 thin slices in total; 1 slice each. (Reminded us of the pear tart at 81/2.)

Latte was good.
In summary: Recommended. Usual Bombana standard: yummy. Will def return to try other dishes on the a la Carte menu.
