Lunch at Playtypus Kitchen at Clifford Centre

 I had the Scallops Aglio Olio (SGD$16.50) - a good-sized plate of spicy but tantalising homely Italian fare. The scallops were chopped into quarters, and filled the plate, alongside with the garlic and chilli padi bits. The noodle was on the soft side, but skillfully so, without being soggy. The flavor was good, but then again most aglio olio relies on its spicy factor as the tasty factor.

 *Tiffany had the Ravioli - a luxuriant plate of cheese-stuffed pastas, deliciously flowing over the palate like lava literally. The cheese stuffing was generous, and smooth, making this an absolutely delightful dish.

I enjoyed the pasta here, and will be back to try the others, for sure.

It wasnt really hard to find this place even though it's located all the way at the end of level 2 of Clifford Centre. Quite noisy because of the echoes and noises perhaps due to the location of the cafe flooded with OLs and all the people working around that area. I ordered squid ink scallop, but was brought to disappointment because it wasnt the 'real' squid ink pasta. The sauce wasnt black at all. I would recommend the agolio olio because it was the right type that I like, a little moist but

i loved my meatball pomodoro garganelli ($15.90)!
it's a dish that you can typically find in most italian restaurants, but i felt that this was done pretty well! haha i was quite amused by the garganelli. first time seeing such a type of pasta. looked like worms
lol! but it was done nicely - al dente, just the right amount of bite!
the meatballs too were generously meaty. on first glance, i thought that the serving looked kinda small, but i realised that it was actually quite a hearty dish.

 squid ink seafood marinara ($16.90) was tossed in olive oil which smelled delicious! i liked how the squid ink pastas i come across nowadays are much cleaner
they no longer stain your teeth and mouth to an unglamorous black mess (read: suitable for dates! haha). there was also a generous portion of fresh seafood.

although i felt that the food here is sorta pricey, but the quality made it worth it

Platypus Test Kitchen is one of out of three, with Test Kitchen, and Platypus Family Dining & Platypus Kitchen, focusing on different concepts.

As the name suggests, this is the place to try out their latest creations and innovations for pastas and risottos.

For drinks, we had Lychee Peach Tea, and Passionfruit Tea. Something like syrup drink, so be sure to stir well.

Meatballs Garganelli ($15.50) with homemade meatballs braised in pomodoro sauce. Basically tomato sauce drenched on the meatballs. Meatballs are 100% beef, and are squishy!

Carbonara ($13.50) uses linguini, tossed with double smoked bacon in an egg-yolk cream sauce. If you are looking for something creamy, their Carbonara is a better choice than Meatballs Garganelli.

Their food are rather average, but I would probably go again to try other flavors. I would love to try out their Platypus Kitchen anytime soon!

Reached there around 1pm and the restaurant was still pretty crowded.

While most of the staff working there are quite young, my food was being served to me by a very friendly auntie. Their fresh pasta cost around $15.50 while the normal dried ones cost a few dollars cheaper.

Wild Mushroom Soup
The soup was thick and I think it might be better than my favourite mushroom soup from "The Soup Spoon". I can come back again just for this mushroom soup!

 The staff recommended the following fresh pasta for me.
Summer Truffle Egg Tagliatelle ($15.50)
Egg Tagliatelle with summer truffles, Parmigiano-Reggiano and chives
The pasta was soft and this dish was really very flavoursome. Might not be a good choice to have this if you order the very rich and creamy mushroom soup in the same set.

 The Wild Mushroom Risotto however was quite good. They even used bacon bits to give it an extra kick, and of course, lots and lots of mushrooms!

This is a hidden little gem at a corner in Clifford Centre. If you don't walk that way, you'll probably miss it. I tried the Mushroom risotto and it was SO GOOD! It doesn't look like much but it's filling due to the rich flavour. There is mushroom, bacon bits, chives, cheese and best of all, drizzled with truffle oil. It smelt so good when it was placed in front of me! The risotto is a tad dryer than what I like but not gonna complain about this. Do try this dish if you are a fan of risotto.

Platyplus Test Kitchen also serve freshly made salad, have tried this particularly very nice and fresh salad with the given name “Wild Rocket Salad”. The wild rocket green is mixed with an aged balsamic dressing. This type of green vegetable is not easy obtainable in our supermarket here.

It is simply green vegetables stirred with this special dressing and garnished with nicely sliced cheese. It is perfect to be eaten together with their freshly made soup.

It is definitely value for money, $5.90 per plate.

Next up, I will try the organic pasta offered here. The food served in Platypus Test Kitchen are very healthy as they are organic pasta cooked with less oil, therefore making it a healthy meal.

I will come back to Platypus Test Kitchen again to try the other selections. Good meal!

The décor of this restaurant looks like a modern kitchen and the feel of this place gives you a very warmth and homely feel.

As I just needed a light meal, the staff recommended me the homemade carrot & ginger soup. It was simply delicious; the soup was made of seasonal carrots pureed with a hint of ginger. It had a very natural flavour and definitely no msg added.

Will certainly return for their fresh made pastas!
