Welcome to Joo Chiat.

Chef-Owner Antonio Miscellaneo, from source ingredients, composition of the dishes in traditional Italian recipes.
 New dished that I tried are :
* Calamaretti Alla Griglia
* Mortadella Newpolitan and Broccolini Pizza
* Sfogliatella Riccia E Gelato Al Parmigiano Reggiano 24 Mesi
* Seadas
* Bombolini.

My favourite is La Focaccia di Recco Classica. It’s looks simple but taste really good. Thin crispy filled with gooey cheese. Make u keep coming back for the next pieces.
Also recommend to order The Pluma alla Griglia and Caciucco e fregola.

For the dessert I like most is the Sfogliatella Riccia E Gelato Al Parmigiano Reggiano 24 Mesi.
Sweet savoury combine together, with different texture.

Grilled Iberico with red capsicum and Sicilian capers. Extremely well-executed grill with tender meat, somehow almost like a medium rare steak. The generous amount of Sicilian capers added a burst of saltiness with every bite, helping to take away the gaminess of the meat at the same time. But I must say - this is a dish for sharing! Too much and you’ll be too full too fast, and also overwhelmed by the savouriness of it all.

Gran Biscotto ham, fior di latte mozzarella, onions and spices. One of the best pizzas I’ve had because of its texture. After reading multiple reviews, I can attest to the amazing chewiness of the dough, while it still remaining light, fluffy, and crusty. This pizza was loaded with ingredients - and while not a simple classic, guarantees a burst of flavour and a generous portion of meat and cheese. My only gripe would be that the pizza base became slightly wet, and I couldn’t really understand the spicy mayo sauce (??) on the pizza, especially since it was so saucy from the cheese already. Definitely a pricey place to have pizza, but that being said, the texture of the pizza here make La Bottega Enoteca really worth a try!

This place was recommended by one of my foodie friends! While I don’t particularly like steamboat, I found myself really enjoying the food at this one, as the soup base (signature soup base) was tasty, the service was good, and the food we ordered came fairly quickly.

Would recommend this place; the prices were still fairly reasonable although just a little bit to the expensive side - we spent about $50/pax.

A crispy, thin crust embracing molten, gooey cheese. This is so addictive!

yummy rice dumplings 🫶🏼

What I had:
- 4 x Nyonya Rice Dumpling 招牌娘惹粽
- 4 x Hokkien Rice Dumpling with Salted Egg Yolk 黄金咸蛋福建鲜肉粽
- 1 x Kueh Salat Cake

I really enjoyed the nyonya rice dumpling the meat was generous and everything was really authentic😌

Ok I brought an overseas guest to taste this as it’s not something they have in HK.
But I feel it was missing a crunch element. Could be better, I might make this myself at home though.

Cannoli ($16)
Was crispy but wasn't really impressed - it could be because this is as good as cannoli can get, or it's just not my kind of dessert.

EVOO Cake ($16)
Extra Virgin Olive Oil cake which was pretty moist, and served with evoo gelato.

Fried baby artichokes were crispy, but tbh deep frying with batter would mean you don't get to taste the full flavours of artichoke sadly. Really miss the fried ones in Italy (not coated in batter).

Finally an octopus that's well-cooked! Had many disappointing ones previously at many other places, but this had pretty nice flavour and cooked just right.

The bread was well-toasted & crispy, and "smokey" from the burnt parts 🤭. Burrata was sadly not milky/ as creamy as expected, and didn't carry much flavour.

Marbling first got my attention, and it was indeed tender!
