Since we booked late, we were not able to secure a table at the main restaurant and had to compromise on sitting at the high tables and chairs next to the row of wine cabinets (close to the entrance of the restaurant) which had a more causal dinning vibe without the table cloth. We opted for the 3 course set menu priced at $480 per person (+10% service charge). They also charged $85 for a bottle of sparkling water.

We opted for the 3 course set menu priced at $480 per person (+10% service charge). They also charged $85 for a bottle of sparkling water.
Here are my tasting notes:
“Grissini”/ Breadsticks- these soft breadsticks were freshly baked and served warm with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. They were nearly as long as the width of the table where we were sitting 😆, and they were unbelievably yummy when paired with the olive oil and the mildly sweet balsamic vinegar. A real treat of this humble bread and I thought I could just live on this……😋.
Burrata, Pomodori, Basilico - the burrata was creamy and fresh, complemented by different varieties of tomatoes with tomatoes infused sauce and pearls. It was a good, light and refreshing dish to start a meal with though the tomato notes in the sauce and pearls were rather too subtle. I was not sure of the taste of the green sponge that scattered around the dish.
Trenette Al Nero, Seppie E Vongole- trenette is a kind of pasta that is slightly wider than linguine but both look similar. The squid ink pasta was cooked al dente with the right amount of bite. The squid ink pasta was not particularly briny and had a good sheen to it. The accompanying clams and cuttlefish, dressed in a slight acidic sauce and parsley oil were perfectly cooked and tasted fresh. The yellow tomato sauce brought slight acidity and make the dish light and fresh though the tomato flavour was to me a touch too mild.
Tiramisu All’Amaretto - there was nothing more satisfying than a big spoonful of smooth and moist tiramisu; the mascarpone was creamy, the ladies fingers were moist infused with the right amount of amaretto 😋. Very delicious.
The lunch set was inclusive of tea or coffee and they also served biscotti and chocolates to go with the coffee.
The staff team were attentive and helpful- what one would expect from a 5 star hotel.
As member of the New World Club, we were able to enjoy discounts on food and beverage as well😝
