Hei Bi Hiam (Spicy Dried Shrimps) Barramundi
($16.90)
Fresh barramundi slices, broccoli and tomato dices tossed with chilli padi and dried shrimps. It is created by Chef Calvin.
Although the dish is supposed to be spicy, we request it to be non spicy. It really tastes very nice with the dried shrimps in the pasta.

We order 2 out of the 3 new side dishes to try.

Chop Chop Chicken Salad
($6.50)
Gourmet salad with crispy chicken fillet, red apple and pear wedges, served with sambal dressing.
It kind of reminding me of the local indian rojak with its dressing.

Prawn Salad Stuffed Tau Pok
($6.50)
Gourmet salad with prawns, cucumber and peanuts stuffed in fried tofu pouches and served with sweet and sour mayo.
It is like a more atas version of the simple stuffed beancurd puff, which is usually just stuffed with bean sprouts and shredded cucumber.
Milo Dinosaur

We also try one of the 3 freezers which is Milo Dinosaur ($6.50). It looks like a chocolate frappa to me. Very thick and rich.

There is also 2 desserts in the new range but we only manage to try one as the Sago Manis Gelato is sold out. We have ordered and paid for both desserts at the counter. We wait and wait and ask one of staff about the dessert. She said that the dessert has already served, which actually has not. In the end after much been pushed around, it is then we are told that the dessert is sold out. What a waste of time. And it is been replaced by another dessert from the regular menu. So disappointing.

Goreng Pisang Gelato ($7.50)
Corn flakes chocolate chip banana balls served with gelato.
It is actually fried banana in batter served with a scoop of gelato of our choice which we selected sinfully rich Chocolate Fondente Svizzero on top. The batter coating the banana is a bit oily and tastes off.

CROSTATA DI LITCHI ($6.50/ $9.50 with gelato)
Lychee tart topped with homemade custard, a sprinkle of granola to finish the sweet note
This is the replaced dessert. Although it tastes not bad and served with Vanilla Crema, but the mood is already spolit.

HONEY GARLIC CHICKEN
Chicken bites coated with homemade honey garlic sauce
It is a sweet and addicitive snacking dish.

Overall the food is not bad. Service needs to be improve especially the way the staffs handle the dessert incident. It could be handle in a better way.

All the above is finished with a carafe drink of Calamansi Cooler which tastes quite refreshing.

Please take note that if you spend more than $30 and the order also includes an item from the Chefs' Creation, you can enter the lucky draw. Good luck to all.

Pastamania fed me through my student years. Back then, it was considered a relatively low-cost, "high-class" food.. -- Pasta.

As our incomes increased, we gradually went toward the higher-end of the Pasta dishes. Pastamania was side-lined to being a cheap imitation of Italian food.
Over the years, the prices at Pastamania have not changed too significantly. Most of the dishes are still below S$10. The menu has expanded now though.. offering finger food and bites.

They still have staff ushering you to seats/finding seats for you, serving food and clearing tables. However, order is still be made personally at the cashier. And, the queue when we visited was rather long.. and moved really slowly! Gosh.
The kitchen staff fortunately, worked much faster than the cashier. Food was served in about 5mins.

Food quality has not diminished, thankfully. Portion sizes were also just right. Unlike some other joints I know, when Pastamania classifies/labels their food as "hot".. it is truly spicy. Do not doubt or underestimate the power of their chilli.

My very innocent looking "Spicy Chicken" in tomato based sauce was a threshold pusher. I had to reduce the eating speed so as not to choke on any accidental chilli padi I might chew and swallow.

The "Honey Garlic Chicken" bites was something new and we decided to try it. Hmm.. felt that the plate of chicken bites was over-priced at S$4.90. Very faint taste of garlic. The bites were generally tasty and acceptable.

It is somewhat nice to know that people are still patronizing Pastamania, people from different walks of life and age groups. The restaurant saw a continuous queue of customers, majority of home were students.

Was craving for the Cheese Sticks at Pasta Mania so I went to eat it at Northpoint.I love the Cheese Stick here. It is fried, however it is not oily. I like how the cheese is melted covered with bread crumbs. It is sold at S$3.90 for 6 of them. It is in the right quantity for me as I can finish it up alone without feeling sick of the cheese. However, I do hope that the cheese can a little more as I love this type of cheese .

Ambiance wise, the pastamania at the outlet is cosy. There are not many people around and its a good place to be for a weekday brunch since the crowds are minimal.

I didn’t realise pasta can be in a soup version until I saw it in the menu. Pastamania offers two variations of pasta in soup, one is the seafood one and the other is the dory fish one.
