Almond paste with rice dumplings

This place is such a disappointment. I didnt eat any ahballings( I mean that would be like cannibalism right? since this blog is named after that) my feedback that the troops gave me was:
Almond paste with rice dumplings – almond paste was not thick enough
The Mango dessert with mini ahballings – just horrendous in the starchiness of the dessert overall
The ginger base ah balling and sweet potato – was too spicy for liking
The only enjoyables were the mango sago with beancurd and the double boiled ginger milk
The rest of the dessserts were a flop. My mango slushie came with too much ice bits – subtle mango taste

Verdict: 2/8 of us may return. Majority of us : Disappointed. Looks like being brought over to Singapore didn’t make its cut.
😦

P.s kudos to mr kwel for helping me in taking the pictures 🙂

Trattoria Cucina Italiana

We decided to try another new place- its one of those restaurants that seem to be tucked away nicely despite being in a prime location, but you won’t try it unless someone suggests and remembers about it

So we ordered our usuals

our place mats

our place mats were those paper that is used for  beehoon takeaways at hawker centers? ok .. don’t know if you want to say its creative? or ????

pepperoni and mince meat pizza

Calamari

Crabmeat Linguine

This pasta is just bad .. the seafood smell was just so overpowering .. it could have been better with more sauce.

The only redeeming dish was the calamari …

I wont return
