The Antipesto (appetizer)
There were 2 choices, we all chose the Creama di funghi (mushroom soup), the other one was sardines salad. The SOUP was very thick, seems made with a chicken stock therefore the flavour was very rich too and with 3 thin slices of TRUFFLES which were very BIG on the soup!
The Piatto Principale (main)
There were 3 choices,but my family was also here, so I asked them to chose other main dishes that I didnt. Therefore I tried them all,
1) Linguine alle Vongole (Clam Linguine) this was the best one according to our family vote, the clam were very fresh and imported from EUROPE!
2) Dentice al vapore (Steamed red snapper) this was OK not too surpised in flavour, but fresh.
3) Maialino croccante (Suckling Pig italian style) I thought this was the best, this was recommended by the chef, it looked like a sausage role, but no pastry outside, rather they used the suckling pig's crispy SKIN as a wrapper, then they slow cooked the pork which made the flavour enclosed within the meat. Not much seasoning was added, therefore, my parents thought it was not salty enough. For me, it was just right.
Dolce (dessert)
There were two choices, we tried both.
1) Cannoli Siciliani, with figs and prickly pears which were very fresh.
2) Tiramisu, the all time italian favourite, they didnt use LADYFINGER as the base, rather they used a thin layer of espresso jelly to bring out the flavour. It was special and matched very well with the home made gelato.
Remarks:
1) The set does not include drinks
2) The service was great, as I am a pregnant girl, they immediately asked me if any food allergies/things to avoid
3) There were bread and cheese sticks free for refill and freshly made which goes very well with the soup
4) The petite four at the end is special with macaron as well
5) Saturday lunch does not require booking as not many people
6) Sunday brunch is a different MENU will try later and update
