Pasta Brava (已結業)

*Charmaine and I chanced upon Pasta Brava, located along the row of conservation shophouses at Tanjong Pagar area.  The dimly romantic interior decor was both tasteful and intimate, yet there was no pretentiousness to it at all. There are Straits Chinese decorations and souveinirs around the restaurant, as well as paintings done by the owner's brother. The restaurant has two stories, and we were sitting on level 2, where we enjoyed the cozier end of the restaurant. The service crew was rather at

Here to celebrate our anniversary with my favourite cuisine. Read from other reviews that the service is poor so we braced ourselves.When we arrived, we were seated and the restaurant was only running on 20% capacity for lunch. During ordering, staff was helpful to give advice on the food items.I was pleasantly surprised with one of the service staff who over to fasten a back cushion for me. That's awfully sweet of him to go to that extra mile for me.Grilled Eggplant - tender slices of eggplant

Was back to pasta brave with my friends on a weekday night and it was really crowded. Luckily my friends had already made reservation before hand. After ordering our food, complimentary bread was served. The bread were alright but they are a little bit too hard for my liking.For our appetizer, we had scallops sauteed with white wine, bechamel sauce and oven-glazed. This was damn awesome the scallops are huge and fresh. The scallops taste really good together with the white wine sauce. Me and my

I am a big fan of pasta, and my friends recommend to this place - pasta brava as they serve really awesome pasta.my friend recommend me to have squid ink pasta but it looks so black and unappetizing so i decided to go for carbonara (my all time favorite pasta dish).The carbonara here cost $22+ which i find it a little pricey. and also because of the price i was expecting it to be really delicious. however, it is just mediocre. the creamy sauce is too thick to my liking and i could hardly finish

Pasta Brava was extremely crowded for a weekday night. Reservations are strongly recommended if you are intending to have dinner at Pasta Brava.The Eggplant Parmagiana was heavenly. Deliciously fragrant, soft, and coated perfectly with the right amount of melted cheese. It went perfectly with the rocket leaves and was a fantastic starter. I've always liked Eggplant Parmagiana but this was definitely one of the better ones so far. The Vongole Spaghetti was done al dente, nice and springy, with a

My friend invited me to this high class Western restaurant to try his favourite dish, which is the Squid Ink Spaghetti ($23++). For the price of $23++ per plate, is really expensive and I was really surprised of its high price, but fortunately taste great! Generous portion of sliced squid has make this dish very fragrant and flavourful. Spaghetti is very chewy and portion is generous. THe black sauce did not really make it taste bitter, but rather make it taste delicious. Restaurant environme

Though very much an Italian Restaurant, Pasta Brava is adorned with Straits Chinese decorations and souvenirs, collected and kept by Rolando Luceri, a former Hotelier who has some 40 years of F&B experience, and his brother’s self-painted pieces of art. It can be quite a spot for a date, what with the bold yet elegant black and reds and the shiny glass wares on the table. However, it can, and it will get pretty noisy as the evening sets in.Besides being kept occupied with your usual bread basket

Pasta Brava has long been acknowledged as one of the top Italian restaurants in Singapore and few would dispute its authenticity and quality. As fate would have it, I dropped by one evening armed with tons of recommendations sourced from friends and a powerful tool called the internet.Tucked amongst the row of shophouses along Craig Road, which also houses the famous Xi Yan, Pasta Brava is located in a quaint rustic looking unit just opposite a multi story carpark and a community centre. The int

Pasta Brava is located along Craig Road, right next to the Pinnacle@Duxton apartments. Once you step inside, you're transported to a old school setting, almost like you're in Italy itself. There is a quaint feeling about it and they even speak in Italian! (well some of them)The food is excellent also! I had the sautéed portobello mushrooms as an appetizer. They were soft and tender, with a great flavour imparted from the garlic and parsley. For my main, I had the home-made pasta, stracci with sc

Pasta Brava’s specialty is dishing out traditional Italian fare that’s very rustic and hearty and to date, it’s still my favourite pasta restaurant in Singapore! My darling pumpkin ravioli ($21++) paired with red capsicum sauce and cream that’s not cloying, even to the end.Slightly dry squid ink spaghetti ($23++) with loads of seafood. I was thrilled by my blackened teeth haha.An average tiramisu ($10++) that didn’t wow nor disappoint. Just a nice ending to a carbs-filled dinner =)If interested,
