i personally preferred the crab mafaldine over the carbonara rigatoni. the crab pasta had a stronger taste profile which was on a saltier side. similar to lobster bisque
the carbonara could do with more ingredients
love the soft fluffy dough and stretchy cheese!! came topped with onions, pineapples and spicy chicken chunks
this was slightly underwhelming. pizza dough and crust were good but the flavours were not matching up.
Tagliatelle pasta, Marsala wine and Parmesan emulsion, Wagyu beef, shaved black truffle
pasta portion could be more, beef cubes were really tender and i enjoyed the cream sauce!
an assortment of seafood and veggies served w a lemon mayo dip. seafood include prawns, squid, whitebait and soft shell crab
craving for pasta so we went for the Mafaldine cacio e pepe served with a fried egg. pasta and the black pepper cream sauce was good. the hamburg, however which was a $8 top up was a disappointment. it was rather tough to cut it and also tasted dry. it was also heavily seasoned with salt as well 😕 so yes, pls just skip the patty
mushroom risotto was a September special which was not bad!
opted for a side of calamari which was a good choice. it was crispy, not oily and easy to chew!

was slightly bumped when they ran out of mashed potato at around 12? when it’s like the peak lunch time. also thought that their mains which did not require a top up was rather limited - grilled chicken or fried chicken. fried fish required a top up of $3.50 and $2.50 for pulled beef. pretty limited sides such as corn, mac and cheese and fries for us to choose from as well. some sides such as potato salad and chicken rice required a 50 cents top up
would i eat this again? maybe. their mac and cheese wasn’t fantastic. i prefer aston’s kind of shell macaroni as it can hold more cheese. fried chicken was okay.
This was part of their 3 course lunch set where we opted for the truffle mushroom soup as the appetizer and ribeye steak and barramundi fish for the mains. we ended with the burnt cheesecake and honeycomb ice cream as desserts.
the barramundi fish was delightful. skin was crispy, the fish was so smooth and i enjoyed it with the mashed potatoes. the sauce was on the saltier side.
the steak was served with thyme butter and thick cut fries
truffle taste was evident in this dish. there are a whole lot of mushrooms and bacon and the serving size was substantial
cheese gratin!! you’ve got to have that cheese pull
pork cutlet was slightly fattier towards the end. they had more premium cuts at an more expensive price which i didn’t go for. this was okay. but i pretty much preferred their seafood cream pasta to this
love the grilled fish!!! very similar to aston’s. opted for butter rice and scrambled eggs.
