Dolcetto by Basilico (Regent Singapore)

Dolcetto is designed to bring the magic of Italy across the 2,400 square feet space that houses an artisanal bakery, all-day dining bistro, specialty foods purveyor, gelateria, confectionary and chocolatier, with over 200 Italian food and drink specialities on display. This multi-concept destination creates an Italian culinary wonderland to allow diners a leisure enjoyment of sweet idleness that accompanies them from morning to evening and work to weekend.

Over at the Mercatino, you will first be greeted with the meats and cheeses display while you browse through the menuboard for a variety of antipasti, handcrafted pizzetta, hearty pastas and sharing plates that you can order to complement the list of Italian wines ($16), cocktails ($18), and beers ($10). If you are there during lunchtime, get a Pear Pecorino Salad ($24) which was so good that we finished it completely. As you wind down the evening, order a pizza like the Prosciutto ($28) and a cold cuts ($35) or cheese platter ($38) while sipping on some tipples. There are also dinnertime items like Scallops Gratin ($22) and Panini di Latte with Beef Sfilacci ($28) that are great for sharing.

After your meal, waltz through to the confectionary for freshly made gelato, artisanal pralines, candies, and chocolates to end the day on a sweet note. My focus was fixated on the sorbet and gelato selection ($6 single, $10 double) and my choices were the Bronte Pistachio and Amarena Cherry (contains alcohol). The former was the perfect blend of aroma and nuttiness while the latter contains the burst of juicy sweetness from the syruped cherries. There are other must-try flavours such as the refreshing Amalfi Lemon and Basil and interesting Cantaloupe Melon with Crispy Parma Prosciutto. Bring a touch of Italy home as well with the range of ready-to-cook specialty foods such as pasta, pasta sauces, balsamic vinegars, olive oils or even ready-to-drink cocktails from the award-winning Manhattan Bar.

Back by popular demand, @regentsingapore has brought back their iconic Chef’s Playground creation - 𝐑𝐢𝐜𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐚 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐟𝐟𝐥𝐞 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐤𝐞! I was super excited to finally get my hands on them!

Here, fresh black truffle isn't confined to being shaven on top, it is infused into the rich ricotta seirass, perfuming the entire cheesecake luxuriously. I really enjoyed the texture of the cheesecake - creamy, rich and dense, yet light.

The cake came with Basilico’s truffle honey, for topping your cake a la minute, allowing you to control the sweetness level to your liking.

They are available in three sizes - single serve, medium and large, via walk-in or advanced order.

Slightly pricier than other normal bakeries but it is real good. I am not a donut person but I would definitely return for this!

What an amazing decadent treat!! Highly recommend all cheesecake lovers to try! You won't be disappointed at all!!! 😭

Truly the best I had!!! Now i just wanna go around to try all HCB just to prove that this is indeed the best 🥲🥲🥲 It has a light texture, plain YET rich in flavour just from the bread ingredients (eggs, milk, spices etc). The dried fruits were quite evenly spreaded within the bun so every bite has a fragrant and sweet taste.

Forget about cedele's bread (most are bad anyway lol). This bread is fluffy like gaah so well baked?? Haha
