Welcome to China Square Central. Looking for Italian places?

Had 50% deal via eatigo hence decided to give it a try.
Ordered the crabmeat linguine which is not bad. Generous amount of crabmeat and cream.

Can give it a try if you around the area

Beside the pizza, we also tried Braised Veel Cheek pappardelle.
It’s also a good dish, the meat tender and flavourful served with al dente pappardelle.

💰$39++ for pizza and $36++ for pappardelle.

📍Zazz Pizza.
18 cross street , #01-108

Went straight for their signature Parma Burrata ($39) which comes with a tangy marinated tomato base on a fantastic pizza dough with excellent pockets of air within and the little blisters of leopard spotting around it. Topped with mozzarella , rucola, Parma ham and a globe of fresh burrata, this truly lived up to its hype. Another dish that was recommended by the staff was the Braised Veal Cheek Pappardelle ($36) that came with tender veal cheek that you can literally pull apart easily with a fork. Cooked in their Zazz special sauce with mixed mushrooms, this was an excellent plate of homemade pasta dish.

Not bad, but quite little.

photos not mine cause i didnt take a pic. but i've had a lot of pizza in my life and this one is probably the best in singapore. You pay for great quality food and taste despite its mall location and uninspiring ambience.the dough is fantastic, red sauce is a must. yes this also beats Lucalis in my books. prices are what i would be willing to pay with my own money.

Second time trying Wafuken - the first time we took away from their Tanjong Pagar outlet. We went with one of the pre-made sets, the Duck Breast Set - half portion of sous vide duck, beetroot quinoa, ramen egg and wafu salad. Similar to in Tanjong Pagar, there is also the option for you to customise your bowl.

Disappointed that the portion was quite small for its price. We were sharing our orders in a group, but I’d think it won’t fill me up if I was having it alone. Taste wise though, the standard’s as good as we remembered. The bowl in general was tasty and not overly seasoned. Especially enjoyed the duck that was very tender, though it would be nice if it had a bit more of a crisp crust.

Wafuken is one of the brands that you can order from when here at Central Food Court!

Opening their third outlet at Philip Street, this bistro bar is the perfect lunch spot in CBD for affordable Italian dishes! Boasting a wide variety of pizzas, pastas and risottos, order up the Pizza di Granchio ($16.50) for crabmeat, pink sauce, VSOP Brandy and peppercorn atop their crispy thin crust, or opt for the Linguine Curry Prawn ($21.70) for a fusion of grilled king prawns and spiced curry sauce. If you're a mushroom lover, their Risotto di Porcini Formaggio ($22.30) — which sees porcini mushrooms in house four cheese sauce infused with truffle oil, will be sure to hit the spot.

*Eligible for takeaway till 30 June 2021.

Finally trying Zazz, last day before CB 2 and at their current location before they move. Wanted to try Burrata Parma, but their out of Burrata so we had half-&-half, 4 cheeses and Parma. Both flavors are good, we both prefer the the 4 cheeses. Yums!

At the basement of Cross Street Exchange hide a interesting food court concept.

They have lots of seats here but you don’t see any food stalls at all. Because you need to order your food from their self-service kiosk or through their website.

After ordering, head over you the lockers corner to collect your food. They have lots of brand to choose from, including this from Wholesome Farm.

Wholesome Farm’s food all comes with a meat together with side and greens.

The chicken tender breast was really tender and not dry at all. Although the sweet potato fries given was already cold.

Burrata-bias aside, what I really appreciate about Zazz Pizza is their crust. Which comes as a huge surprise to the wheat-sensitive me. Their Neapolitan-style ‘za comes with the characteristic raised and puffy edges that are crisp, fluffy, and chewy, with little charred bubbles spread intermittently around. I don’t usually eat my crusts, but with Zazz’s I found myself nibbling at em till I’m like “wait did I finish it all wtf am I gonna choke and die?” That’s how good it was. The base of the pizza was thin as I like em to be, though it does get really soggy as you make your way through it. But really, the cherry on top has to be the burrata 🥲 You can add one to any pizza you order at +$14, which is the best thing ever in my books. I love their Meat Lover ($28) that comes loaded with mozzarella, ham, spicy salami, bacon, sausages, sweet bell peppers, and caramelised onions — lots of cured meats in there, fabulous balance of flavours with those sweet elements.

It’s been a super long time since we last visited them! After so long and been to so many places, this is still our favourite Italian restaurant serving one of the yummiest pasta! The kind where everything is so good and delicious, perfect texture pasta, pasta base is fantastic with generous servings of ingredients! They have many different pasta base to choose from, many different types of ingredients and you can even choose your spicy level (mild, normal, spicy, extra spicy) too! We usually goes for the normal spicy and it’s already rather spicy, where u can feel the spiciness on tongue 👅. The default pasta noodles is spaghetti but you could also tell them to change to linguine if you prefer. Of course, from the restaurant name, you would be able to guess that their signature pasta base is Aglio Olio. Beside that, we are also super in love with their cream base pasta as the cream is not too thick and creamy, not too jelak comparing to many cream pasta out there! As a cream base fan myself, it’s really not easy to find slurpping shiok cream pasta and this really got me so hooked to it! All pasta lovers are highly recommended to try out this place! ⠀

Couldn't decide between the sausage aglio olio and the mushroom aglio olio so decided to just both. The spiciness level of 3 was really spicy! Would probably go for a spiciness level of 2 if i go back next time cause an excess of chili makes it hard to appreciate the actual taste of the pasta
