Pasta & Co.

I’m back at Pasta & Co. once again for the fifth or sixth time! I’m glad to say standards are still well maintained at the establishment, though I must say my usual Lamb Merguez was a tad bit too spicy this round.

My friends had the Ragu, Mentaiko, and the Pasta alla Vodka. Alcohol taste in the pasta wasn’t too visible and was probably the favourite of the night.

Total spent $62.80 for 4 pax’s full-portion (after Burpple Beyond); doesn’t break the bank. I’m happy that the establishment is doing well. Michelle (lady boss) always serves with a nice smile; service is still fantastic. Would always recommend someone to try this place.

Set in the old building of 📍 Fortune Centre (Bugis area), you can enjoy handmade pastas at @pastaandco -- choose between interesting choices such as squid ink tagliatelle and roasted capsicum with paprika spaghetti with your sauce base. For me, there were hits and misses but I don't think I'll return.

🌠 1 for 1 with #burpplebeyond ! 🌠 But take note that the 1 for 1 is only for the small sizes so you'll have to pay the difference in price (~$5) for each dish if you want to get the full size. I do recommend you do this because even the full size wasn't that hefty.

This pasta was the star of the show! I doubt I'll ever be properly satisfied by a solely cream or tomato based pasta ever again after tasting this. To be honest, the vodka doesn't taste like much but the piquant tomato, savoury bacon, and cream formed a perfect combination of flavours. The dish comes with "bird's eye chilli" as well but the spiciness wasn't too bad.

This was a fair attempt at the Italian classic, but came across a bit dilute and too peppery. Oh well. At least the fusili lunghi was fun to chew on!

Crispy but a bit too chewy inside. Worth a try but it's nothing special.

Ragu [$25.90]: squid ink pasta was cooked al dente and beef cubes were juicy and amount was generous✨✨🫶🏻 There were many other ingredients as well such as button mushrooms and fried garlic which was vv crispy !!!

16h slow cooked beef was craaazy good. Fusilli was al dente. Super friendly owner <3 Try it!!!
