| - I was not too fond of Italian food but after being brought here, it sparked my interest for it. This place is huge - we're talking about three floors here! The top floor is of course the beautiful patio that's perfect for the summer! Very beautiful decor and comfortable ambiance.
For my very first time here, we ordered the Garganelli Geppetto and a prosciutto sandwich. LOVED the pasta and the prosciutto sandwich was just delicious! On another hot summer day, we came here for lunch and ordered a Spinoza and Terroni Sour. I must say, from all of the cocktails I've tried these were different; distinct in taste and just... you gotta try one for yourself. Comparing the Spinoza to the Terroni, it is much "heavier" or rather, "musky" in taste. I loveee the aftertaste though, there's a hint of spice in it. Do not get foolled by the Terroni Sour because it is not sour at all! It is however, a distinct taste I'd say but very refreshing. As for food, we ordered the Calamari alla Griglia, Pappardelle alla Iosa and Funghi Assoluti.
I absolutely LOVED the grilled calamari. Although it is an appetizer, it's perfect as a full meal for those who prefer something light. It is pretty much a salad (mixed greens + tomatoes) tossed with some perfectly grilled calamari. The balsamic vinegar brings everything together nicely for this dish. The Funghi Assoluti was delicious as well. It's a salad comprised of baked oyster mushrooms, arugula and tossed with balsamic vinegar. The baked oyster mushrooms was not bland at all; it's got a bit of a smokey flavour to it and had a nice crunch to add texture to the overall dish. Lastly, the pasta we had was.... A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Love, love, LOVE their pasta mainly because of the texture and tenderness of it. It's nothing compared to any other pastas I've had. Superb!
Lastly, dessert. What is a meal without dessert?! We ordered the fried dough with nutella or house jam and vanilla ice cream on the sad. Lovely presentation however, after a few bites it got a bit too sweet. The dough was pretty much a doughnut that's lightly sweeten. Oh btw, if you're planning to order this thing you should ask for either nutella or their house jam otherwise, without a decision, you will have served nutella automatically.
Overall, consistency is always here and service is prompt. Will definitely be back for some more pasta and cocktails!
