It's a very nice setup with tables on the level of the Basement 1 of Orchard Central. Inside the restaurant, their kitchen has an open concept decor where you can the chefs hard at work. We ordered: 1) Deep Fried Calamari - it looked really good but I thought it lacked crunch when eaten. Quite disappointing as the squid was fresh. 2) Carbonara - the cream was light and not overpowering. In fact, it was a little bland actually. The ingredients were a little sparing to achieve that nice pan-fried

It's a very nice setup with tables on the level of the Basement 1 of Orchard Central.

Inside the restaurant, their kitchen has an open concept decor where you can the chefs hard at work.

We ordered:

1) Deep Fried Calamari - it looked really good but I thought it lacked crunch when eaten. Quite disappointing as the squid was fresh.

2) Carbonara - the cream was light and not overpowering. In fact, it was a little bland actually. The ingredients were a little sparing to achieve that nice pan-fried bacon taste.

3) Marinara - boring me opted for this AGAIN! The seafood was fresh and surprising generous (compared to the Carbonara). I like my marinara with kick so their was a little too tomato-y and lacking in salt too.

Maybe the kitchen chefs all are very health conscious so they are watchful about how much salt they add in. This, both pastas can be considered 'subtle' in taste lah.

Not likely I'll visit again unless I ask for that little shaker of salt.
