Pasta Fresca Da Salvatore prides itself in using sauces and ingredients from South Italian recipes. They boast of recreating authentic, crispy Italian thin-crust pizzas in Singapore. We were disappointed to find that the restaurant was still closed at 10.30am...We waited about an hour before the chef arrived. Thankfully, there is free parking! You have to call any one of the restaurants before you're allowed to enter the gantry. It was quite strange that the waiter asked us to wait outdoors. Des

We waited about an hour before the chef arrived. Thankfully, there is free parking! You have to call any one of the restaurants before you're allowed to enter the gantry. It was quite strange that the waiter asked us to wait outdoors. Despite the blazing weather, they did not allow us into the restaurant even though they were not setting tables or doing anything in particular.

Crespelle Al Funghi (W)

Before you read any further, you should know that there are 16 pastas to choose from in the restaurant. We ordered crespelle al fungi, an italian-style crepe filled with a delightful, creamy sauce of sautéed porcini and white mushrooms, onions, parmesan cheese. The dish is baked in the oven and you get to choose between tomato or cream sauce. Of course, my foodie partner-in-crime chose the latter. He is addicted to anything creamy and buttery... and unfortunately, I'm not really a fan. *laughs*

Crespelle Al Funghi in the menu (left). The Real Al Funghi served to us (right).

Well, there is a stark difference in terms of the look of the Crespelle Al Funghi. I must say the dish looks really, really terrible and it is probably an insult to italian dishes.

Is this really Crespelle Al Funghi?

We couldn't differentiate the different layers. Initially, it tasted great but it was quite cloying halfway through! Definitely too creamy for our liking!

Fettucine Chicken & Mushroom Alfredo

Fettucine Chicken & Mushroom Alfredo

We got this item from SUGAR, the mobile app. This fresh fettucine pasta is tossed with Parmesan cheese, diced chicken, and sautéed mushrooms. This thick and creamy pasta is best shared among two — its buttery fragrance is bound to permeate your nostrils. The fettucine is much preferred as compared to the Crespelle!

Service was average — there were only one waiter and waitress around and we were the only ones in the restaurant. Perhaps I expected too much— I'm quite unsure if these dishes are worth the prices as my mum is able to cook these at a similar standard.

Pasta Fresca is an Italian restaurant chain that has a presence in China and Singapore, with 4 outlets currently operating in the latter. Managed to have a quick dinner with my friend at its Siglap outlet one evening when the crowds were still slowly trickling in.

The interior was rather simplistic yet cosy through the injection of earthly tones into its colour scheme and overhanging pieces of cloth (or whatever you call them). Coupled with warm lights and Italian style painting panels, it made for a lazy and somewhat sleepy dinner.

Alfredo Fettuccine - One of the more decent renditions around, the fettuccine was al dente with the cream based sauce not too heavy on the palate. The toppings of diced chicken, ham and garden peas were quite generous as well, which made this dish quite bang for the buck.

Quattro Stagioni - Bearing the same name as Vivaldi's Four Seasons, the Quattro Stagioni was quite decent with the exception of the crust, which could have been thinner and crispier. Although we only ordered a small pizza, it was already quite a size. Ingredients were generous as well, with the olives, ham, mushrooms and artichokes scattered throughout.

Mousse Al Cioccolato - I'm pretty sure chocolate fanatics will like this dish - chocolaty rich and gooey but not overwhelming. Served chilled, it made for a nice and sweet, albeit heart stopping dessert. The funny thing was that it was supposedly flavoured with orange peel, something that I couldn't make out at all.

Tiramisu - For the price, I honestly didn't expect much. The tiramisu looked good but was let down by quite a few factors. First of all, there was the glaring absence of the liqueur taste. Secondly, the mascarpone cheese came across as more creamy then light or fluffy. But having said all that, it was still very palatable.

I was stuffed at the end of it and so was my friend. Food quality in general was a notch above average but the best part was, it didn't cost an arm or leg, standing at about $50 for 2 mains & 2 desserts. Service was quite good and I would be inclined to drop by if I was in the area and craving for a hearty Italian fix.
