When you talk about Italian restaurant, most people would think of pasta and pizza, but this restaurant is somewhat different. Read about this fine dining Italian restaurant in a magazine which serves Sicilian (southern Italian) cuisine and pasta and pizza isn't the main focus, so decided to try it.The decor is very chic and spacious, with an open kitchen and big window overlooking the Victoria Harbour, the atmosphere is quite romantic. Both my bf and I had the testing menu which has 5course +
The decor is very chic and spacious, with an open kitchen and big window overlooking the Victoria Harbour, the atmosphere is quite romantic.
Both my bf and I had the testing menu which has 5course + coffee / tea. Tuna with blood orange and flower petals. First time having fresh flower petals in a meal. Paccheri pasta with lobster, scampi & sicilian red prawns. This was so good, probably the best pasta I ever had. The outside skin was so cripy and the actual meat was so tender, literarily melt in the mouth. It's very different from the Chinese style sucking pig. Higly recommend! The fig and mandarin paired so well with the different kinds of chinese. Souffle and hazelnuts, almonds & pistachio ice-cream. The warm souffle was so light, if you like souffle then you'll fall in love with it, espand also to my surpise, it paired extrodinary well with the ice-cream. These little snacks/chcoclate came with the coffee or tea, it's such a perfect way to finish off the meal.
The waiters and restaurant manager were very friendly and would explain every dish to you. Very good service! The restaurant atmosphere was very romantic and quiet, perfect for couple or friends gathering. Definitely would come back again!
