I first knew about Lafiandra Trattoria when they were at Prinsep Street, a tiny place with a homely atmosphere and great hearty unpretentious food. They're now at the Singapore Art Museum, and the restaurant still manages to retain its down-to-earth charm, warm vibe and comforting food while at the classy artsy fartsy posh(er) digs of the old Saint Joseph Institution school building.
Prices here are very affordable and value-for-money, while the portions are generous. There's never really a crowd so you're (almost) guaranteed a seat without reservations, even on the weekends. We like that it's open till late, so we can hit this place late at night.
We had:
1) Tortelloni Ripieni di Funghi e Formaggio ($22) home-made dumpling filled with mushrooms and cheese in a gorgonzola cheese sauce was very well done. For a rich cream-based pasta, this managed to keep from being cloying
2) Risotto alla Marinara ($22.90), Italian rice with squid, mussels, prawns and clams in a tomato sauce, was awesome. If we had to choose amongst all the dishes (because we loved them all), we'd have to say that this was our favourite. We loved every bit of this fragrant seafood tomato rice dish. The rice was perfectly oozy and al dente, but the ultra fresh seafood was the star. I particularly loved the squid rings, cooked expertly to a soft and tender texture
3) Aglio Olio Spaghetti con Gamberi e Zucchini ($22.90) with prawns and squid tossed with olive oil was light, flavoursome and so yummy in its simplicity
