Family dinner at The CASTEL cafe.This cafe is in the Ang Mo Kio neighbourhood and it sells mainly pizza, spaghetti and baked rice. It is a casual dinning place and the most important factor is that they offer these food at neighbourhood price, with no service charge and GST. Each main course cost about $6 to $10, which is cheap as compared to other cafe which sells Italian food.I ordered chicken baked rice which cost $8. It has quite a thick layer of cheese on top of the rice. However, it lacks
This cafe is in the Ang Mo Kio neighbourhood and it sells mainly pizza, spaghetti and baked rice. It is a casual dinning place and the most important factor is that they offer these food at neighbourhood price, with no service charge and GST. Each main course cost about $6 to $10, which is cheap as compared to other cafe which sells Italian food. I ordered chicken baked rice which cost $8. It has quite a thick layer of cheese on top of the rice. However, it lacks the aroma and taste. My mum ordered Buongustaio pasta. It cost $6. It is penne pasta mix with mushroom, chicken, onion in cream sauce. My mum complained that the penne is quite hard. I tried a bite and indeed it is quite hard. The chef should cooked it longer so that the penne can be softer so that more sauce will be soaked in it. The sauce was not that creamy which was good, but they gave very little sauce.
I would not recommend this dish as i feel that dish that penne as the pasta should have more sauce so that penne could be soaked and i will prefer it being soggy with more sauce. If you would want to try this dish, perhaps request for the penne pasta to be cooked longer
My dad ate carbonara with spaghetti as the pasta. It tasted nice just that the portion is quite small and not that filling. However, pricing at $6, i think it is reasonable.
