Located in a rather remote street, I was referred to this restaurant by my friend who knows his stuff so I thought this should make an interesting dinner. He did, however reminded me that I should consider coming here in a bigger group as many of the fine dishes here are only available in sharing portions. Too bad I can't wait to gather a group and decided to try it first. A nicely constructed but condensed menu. First page. Second page. And then the monthly special. When I was ordering I alread

Second page.
And then the monthly special.
When I was ordering I already had a gut feeling that the portions won't be big. We started off with a "Russian King Crab Salad". I thought it was perhaps a bit too light for my appetite.
And then the "Octopus and Potato Salad", which was quite nice but not amazing.
Ordered two Sicilian grilled scampi, this was pretty good. You can tell that the restaurant uses top notch ingredients, it's very fresh and yummy.
One of the main course was a grilled squid. Again this was on the light side so I did think it needed a bit more seasoning. Again ingredients were quite fresh but didn't think it was amazing.
By now you might think that the food is only so-so and nothing is special here. The following dish, red prawn spaghetti was so good that I think it's probably the best in town, not one of the, but the best in town. The Sicilian Red Prawns were so delicious and the spaghetti was cooked super al dente. Perfect.
Then I thought the chef must be good with pastas so I ordered another one to try, the sea urchin and sakura shrimp linguine. Okay the portions were not too generous but again it was super good. Very rich and the sea urchin and sakura shrimp worked really well together. This linguine delivers a bit of a fusion adding a Japanese twist to the Italian dish.
Finally we decided to try something more interesting for dessert and went for a poached pear in lychee sauce and red date chips. Quite light and refreshing, the perfect way to finish a wonderful evening.
I would recommend everyone to go for pastas here. If you like fresh seafood and just the way it's supposed to taste then of course their seafoods are pretty nice but seriously their pasta is something to die for. Absolutely brilliant, definitely a top top pasta place.
The only thing to complain about would be the portions, given the price I would've thought that they would be more generous on the portions but otherwise it was quite perfect.
