The Marmalade Pantry oozes a sophisticated, grown-up vibe. The somewhat heavy foot traffic also ensures a steady stream of shoppers for diners to indulge in people-watching. While the food was alright and not too bad, I don't get why people fuss about this place so much. It certainly doesn't have that "wow" factor.
We had:
1) Grain Fed Beef Cheek Guiness Pie ($26) - with celeriac puree and a side serving of mesclun salad lightly dressed with olive and pepper. Robust and hearty
2) Truffled Field Mushroom Risotto ($22) - al dente bite yet soft and creamy. Parts of this were a tad too salty though. Otherwise, the variety of mushrooms lent texture to the dish. This wasn't the best I've had, but it was substantial and had a rustic appeal
3) Desserts here are a must-try. The Nutella ($4.20)- a moist chocolate cupcake with Nutella frosting super sinfully rich and sweet
