a long while since i last wrote something, and the first place that came to mind is pane vino. been here twice, once for dinner and once for lunch.now it has already been several months since my last visit, i don't quite remember all the dishes i had - and if i went thru them one by one, i am obviously lying. so let's just do the highlights.what i remember is their pasta - both times i did a bit of pasta. for dinner we had the "chef's hat" shaped pasta in seafood - it was actually a recommend
been here twice, once for dinner and once for lunch.
now it has already been several months since my last visit, i don't quite remember all the dishes i had - and if i went thru them one by one, i am obviously lying. so let's just do the highlights.
what i remember is their pasta - both times i did a bit of pasta. for dinner we had the "chef's hat" shaped pasta in seafood - it was actually a recommendation from another diner, we walked by and he just grabbed us out of nowhere and told us to try. turns out, texture was cooked to perfection, and the sauce oozed in the flavors just right. tasted nothing like it before, nor i could find the particular type of pasta being sold anywhere.
for lunch... i remember there was a chicken breast fettucine, and a seafood linguine. texture for both, again, was superb. the chicken breast... you know how it gets rough and all if not prepared well right? no problem here, the slab of meat was full juicy and tender (which was actually quite a surprise, as it totally exceeded my expectations)
osso bucco... i think we had it for dinner. very punchy flavors, meat was braised long enough. remember to do the osso in the bucco, fabulous!!! the risotto that came with it was a good combination, tho i think it could be cooked sliiiiighty longer.
yet i do wanna comment on their tomato-based sauces... be it creamy or not. i am uncertain whether the chef is trying to give a fresh and light feeling on the sauces, but both times there was sth tomato-based and i felt they were both not strong enough. perhaps it is a chef preference?
and oh oh oh yes, the cheese!! the parmesan nibblies they set on the side during dinner... intense flavors, funny texture... i think they made these themselves. so so so addictive, i could sit and much these all day long...
service was not bad, therez this lady who patiently did the wine list with us and came to our table for check-backs.
talking bout wines... they are quite strict about byobs... luckily their wine list is ok.
price-wise... they do charge you a fat chunk of money alright... but hey, being able to eat heartedly, i wouldnt mind paying a bit of premium.
but i think they have coupon offers and this buy1get1 special on monday (not sure if they still have it)... now if you can grasp these opportunities, dig in!!
