The GREAT SINGAPORE SALE is here and besides SHOPPING for the best deals around town, you must also know where to find great EATING deals. the connoisseur concerto (tcc) holds its annual 1-for-1 pasta and main course promotion to coincide with the GSS period (it runs from 25 May to 22 July this year). Each main course/ pasta at tcc usually cost about $20, and becomes even more affordable during this 1-for-1 promotional period. I recently visited tcc at Wisma Atria, but there are many other tcc o
I particularly like their Seafood Aglio Olio Pasta ($20.50++). It’s perfect al dente spaghetti tossed in olive oil, chili flakes and garlic. The spaghetti is firm, has bite and goes very well with the huge pan seared scallop pieces and fresh prawns served in this dish. Garlic lovers will like the generous sprinkling of garlic over this dish.tcc has also expanded its food menu and I tried this new item- Baby Crayfish Spaghetti ($20++) which is spaghetti tossed in luscious tomato cream sauce with generous servings of sauteed baby crayfish, topped with green wasabi fish roe. I felt the tomato cream sauce was actually a good combination of tomato and cream flavours; it is slightly watery and not too overly creamy thick. I quite enjoyed slurping the firm spaghetti strands drenched in the sauce. The baby crayfish served here were fresh and they were really generous with the portions. The wasabi fish roe added a nice crunchy, sharp peppery wasabi flavour to the entire mix which complemented the dish.Their pasta menu is worth a try, especially if you need to find a place to have a meal and coffee after shopping. You may need to put up with less than desirable service though. Every customer was having a main course and the service staff were really busy. They took quite a while to serve water and bring the bill, but surprisingly the main courses did not take too long to appear. Also, if the cafe gets crowded, do be prepared to queue! Seems like more people are becoming aware of the 1 for 1 promo.
