PocoLoco (Upper Thomson)

Tucked away in the Upper Thomson neighbourhood, you could easily miss it if you don’t pay attention.

Enjoy this pasta with a Japanese-inspired cream sauce with mentaiko (marinated cod roe) from the Chubu region of Japan.

The spicy cod roe which imparts that orange-pink colour, giving it slight spiciness which complements the buttery, creamy sauce.

Very well cooked pork as it was springy and well charred as well. Served with herbed mustard which was fine and wasnt too strong, but the pork was good enough on its own

Taste was q unique but mild, in particular the seafood flavour could have been a lot stronger. Seafood was also q modest in quantity. Rice was pretty hard but it does remind me of the texture of the Risotto i had in italy

Quite like this rendition without tomato sauce as it wasnt cloying and could taste the beef.

Heard a lot about this and was expecting a lot as well. Sauce was pretty good with the melted cheese and the tangy bite, but with the meaty scallop(in the sense that it wasnt bouncy lol) and considering theres only 2 pieces, not really worth it. It wasnt like the sauce was life changing either.

Really good bread as it was very crispy on the outside and firm but airy, turning into mush in your mouth as you chew. Honestly by now I've finally comes to terms with the fact that i dont really enjoy olive oil nor vinegar, and simply save the bread for dipping into gravies later(which was a fantastic decision btw)
