The restaurant was very cozy as we walked in. We made a booking just a day before and reserved a table for an early dinner of 4. We were served upstairs at a private area, and the restaurant was not crowded at all. Quite quiet, and good for chilling.

We were first served each with a french bread with salsa sauce, a little sour taste to really open up our appetite, which i thought was quite a good starter.

 After the french bread, came the Parma Ham with Melons. The ham was a little disappointing, as it was not very rich. Also the ham was portion was not in propotion with the melons. We were served with 4 pieces of melon, with half a plate of ham. Though the ham wasn't very rich in flavour, the overall balance of the Parma ham & melon was quite delicious.

 The entres came right after half day through the appetitizers, and it was the four cheese pizza. The smell of the cheese was outstanding! 
 
 The crust was thin and even, baked to perfection. With the smell so aggressive, the cheese was surprisingly bland 
! I'd expect more flavour from the cheese or a little bit more seasoning into the pizza. Though the small disappointment from the cheese, the crust was still very good, and the taste of the crust was crispy and well seasoned.

 Then came the last 2 dishes; a Bacon & Leak risotto and a seafood stew. The risotto was a slightly undercooked, but the flavour was there, and i thought i was a good combination between the crispy bacon + leak with the soft texture of the risotto. Flavour is slightly salty, but wasn't greasy.

The seafood stew was a little disappointing, the sauce tasted a little like canned lobster soup, and im not too sure if the seafood was fresh, did taste a little frozen. The seafood had mussels, clams, calamari and shrimp, but wasn't seasoned well, so the taste wasn't as exciting. We had 4 people and the dish served us with 3 pieces of french bread, which I don't quite understand why it's there, but the sauce wa not sufficient enough to finish with bread.

 Overall the environment was quite good, I think its a good place to chat and chill with a few friends, a quiet place to catch up. The food is OK, wasn't fascinated about it, for the cost of the quality of the food i do think it is a little overpriced. I think it would be better to chill with a drink.
