[CLOSED] Caffé B

This restaurant has a great date night feel and very attentive servers with quality service. The food isn’t exceptional - the lamb rack was decent but forgettable and portions are on the small side

100% Agave Azulejo 1549 Bianco as the main base mixed with our home signature delicious sours and a touch of Triplum..
💰$25.

I've a new found love for Italian food, and it's at Caffe B. Newly renovated to Club Street with a cafe and naturally, a new menu as well, everything I tried that evening was stellar.

Take this vongole for example, there was so much natural sweetness in its sauce that was more than just seafood, clams or white wine. And as I spoke to Chef Masanao Saito @erefant, he explained how he incorporated Japanese subtleties to this dish - the vongole sauce contained housemade dashi stock, and garnished with shiso leaves.
🔸
I'm always impressed with the way the Japanese does things, their attention to details always results in perfection. It may not be obvious or mind-blowing, but you know he has created a vongole that's still predominantly Italian, but improved by Japanese elements.

It was chock full of zesty aromas. A thick tea of strawberry, the kiwis seems to have taken a back seat in this painting.

The flavour of the oysters come out well and while I felt that the wasabi foam was unnecessary, I appreciated the use of ikura to give it a bit more strength on the flavour side of things.

Yep. This luxurious risotto is simmered in a lobster broth, then decked out with some serious Chili lobster meat reminiscent of Singapore’s famous Chili crab. The risotto was well-cooked, not too wet and definitely possessing a bite.
