With dark wood interiors and warm, romantic lighting, this snazzy Italian joint in Tanjong Pagar is perfect for when you're in the mood to dress up for date night, or for an evening out with the girls. We like how the dishes are kept affordable without compromising on quality. Start with the classic and flavourful Luka Housemade Wagyu Beef Bresaola ($12), followed by the Smoked Egg, Wagyu, Uni ($10 for two halves) — soft-yolked eggs wrapped in seared wagyu and topped with uni. For mains, Burppler Veronica Phua highly recommends the Shirasu Aglio E Olio ($22), a unique dish of aglio olio style pasta redolent with the fragrance of shiso leaves. If you're up for an adventure, try Trippa ($16), a hearty dish of tender beef tripe stew that'll be perfect with a side of bread. Save room for Luka's Tiramisu ($8), a dreamy mix of chocolate textures and airy whipped mascarpone.
