meei / Pasta

tossed with feta, olives, basil, sun-dried tomatoes, wilted capsicum and olive oil. simple but well prepared.

i thought the pasta was slightly underdone, but as a whole i like how they didn't stick to the traditional predominantly green pesto sauce and served up something that deviated from the norm. creamy, slightly oiled (not in a bad way) and a touch of sweetness in the nutty pesto that also tasted vaguely like BBQ sauce.

almost mashed potato-like consistency, and a beautifully crisp fried skin. served with blue cheese and poached pears - simple but impeccably prepared.

actually not bad, but i thought the portions were rather measly. what happened to bar food portions? my friend thought the rice was slightly undercooked, but i liked the graininess.

a friend of mine ordered this, and i naturally had a taste. ugh their handmade gnocchi is too good. not the hopelessly chewy and overly floury type, this was soft, sticky and not cloying at all. most importantly, you could actually tell it was supposed to be a potato gnocchi - in fact, it delightfully tasted almost like mashed potato.

by Toto - "fresh pasta rolled with ricotta, mozarella & parmesan on tomato, basil and eggplant sauce". flavours were wonderful - the cheese superb and the vegetable sauce carrying a subtle sweetness. the cannelloni was a little hardened already, though

pretty good as far as pastas go - the sauce was of the perfect consistency and flavourful enough, with chunks of chicken tossed in
