Complimentary serve of fresh tomatoes over crostini*
 
*Highlight was their sweet balsamic jam condiment. Ask for it if not presented.
Goes well with portobello mushrooms and caprices salads as well. Balsamic Jam can be purchased from
REWE supermart located along the street.*


Ordered on 05Oct2014:
Spinach with Mushrooms

*What we envisioned was the 'cooked to death' spinach (which is really nice actually) with a squeeze of lemon. But what we got was this. Equally good. Cream sauce was light. However, we had hoped the spinach cooked through more throughly. A lovely dish worth the order.*

Arugula salad with Fried Squid

*Absolutely amazing fry on their squid and so much of it to boot. Light, fluffy and not at all greasy. It goes perfectly with the peppery taste of arugula. A simple balsamic and olive oil dressing. Simplicity and pure flavor. A must re-order!*

 Scampi with the Famed Hello Kitty Sauce

The Hello Kitty sauce came about because, some crew liked tomato based spaghetti, whereas some preferred the cream based sauces. Hence this pinkish creation is the love child of that tomato and cream mixture. The review... Will try once but probably won't have a re-order. It nice I suppose as the cream isn't as heavy but not really to scream about. Again others may say other wise. Try it for yourself and decide.*
Scampi done Aglio Olio

*thick, creamy, good flavor, but its one of the heaviest Cabonara variants I've tried thus far.
Can be shared by 2. Spaghetti was done aldante*

Seafood Pasta `not pictured`
*You can taste the fresh tomatoes and basal, with accent points brought about by the capers.*

Calamari with Olives and Salary served with boiled Spinach
*We were expecting deep fried calamari but this was instead served.
Very meditaranian flavor profiles from the black olives and salary.
The boiled spinnach was just there by the side, neither adding nor taking away from the dish. An avearge order.*

Overall, a good standard of Italian cuisine at very reasonable prices, complemented with good service. The free Internet definitely sweetens the entire deal. 

Have yet to try their other dishes like Pizzas or Risottos. Prices range Approximately + 7-10

Portions were very large servings and would fill you up. Even though their kitchens were manned by Thai staff, their flavors were lacking. This is however a Halal joint.

*Review from Andy Aw. Not too bad, quite fresh. Can't compare to Japan but at least 10x better than Sakai Sushi. Beware they charge for hot green tea also. I had the Chirashi lunch 22Euro before crew discount.* - Andy Aw
