Welcome to Orchard. Looking for Italian places?

For Valentine’s Day dinner, we kept it casual at Pete’s Place, and honestly, that’s the kind of dining experience we enjoy these days—good, honest cooking done right.

We started with the Calamari Fritti, and it was one of the best we’ve had in a while. Lightly battered and fried to tender perfection, the squid was paired with pickled zucchini, which added a refreshing contrast to the crispy goodness.

For mains, we had the Linguine Vongole, where the clams could have been plumper, but the white wine reduction was beautifully balanced—sweet, savoury, and full of umami. The Diavola Pizza was everything you’d expect—meaty, cheesy, with a chewy, satisfying crust that fills you up fast.

But the star of the night? Pete’s Tiramisu. Served tableside from a tray, the savoiardi biscuits soaked up the espresso and white amaretto, making each bite moist, decadent, and just the right amount of boozy, while the mascarpone added a creamy, luxurious finish.

Definitely a spot worth adding to the list for comforting, well-executed Italian fare.

the risotto was served with both the fried squid and boiled squid

generous serving of salmon in the pasta! sauce was a pink sauce which is like a mix of cream and tomato

Pink peppercorn glaze, sriracha slaw with 4 ribs. This was definitely on the pricier side and the ribs were not meaty enough but the meat was tender and fell off the bone easily. Would skip this and get something more worth the buck.

They came up with new seafood goodness, the Saffron Seafood Risotto which includes juicy prawns, tender squid, tangy sundried tomatoes, and saffron.
Risotto was alright but not much saffron taste to it. I would recommend to skip and try their pasta instead.

Garlic parsley chimchurri, capsicum, tomato pesto. Very flavourful and full of garlic taste which was what we were expecting. Pizza was thin and crispy. Extremely good pizza!

Had the spinach tortilla ($20++) & salmon pasta ($28++) and it was flavourful.

Good to go once in a while
