🇮🇹🍝Moi Preferito Italiano☕🇮🇹

This pizzeria needs no further introductions. Simple yet delicious.

It’s been a while since I had freshly hand made pasta that tasted this good. Whilst a trofie is not (meant to be) al dente, it’s delicate and matt texture absorbs all the wonderful pesto keeps you chomping down more.

The garlic cream, basil, olive, pine nut and sundried tomatoes all comes so well together with the trofie pasta from north Italy. Without a doubt, this would be my pasta of choice for a pesto.

I almost forgotten the Queen calamari which my dinner partner found it interesting, but I was too focused on the pasta.

Traditional meatball in basil-ginger tomato sauce. This was certainly not the item in the antipasti menu that I would have gone for if not for the persistent recommendation by the serving staff at Fiamma. It’s a MUST have! And wow aren’t we glad we took the recommendation. Mopped up so quickly with the plush focaccia 😋 Mamamia!

Char-grilled lamb cutlets, done medium rare, in Taggiasca olive jus was non-greasy but full of succulent flavorful meat and right amount of fats. The olive juice was simply delicious and kept me wondering if this would go as well with what other food. The fried gratinated polenta is a tat disappointing.

Not your regular burrata. This changes my impression of pea! The bean-pea salad with pickled guanciale totally stole the show.

Wasn’t expecting a tomato base pasta but perhaps we haven’t read the menu clearly describing this simply as garlicky prawns with fennel and tomatoes. I like it but not as well as their pizzas!

Unlike your regular tortilla chips from the Frito-Lay nacho snack packs, Jamie’s does theirs freshly daily, ravioli filled with 3 cheese served with arrabbiata sauce dip. A pleasantly surprising starter.

Surprisingly it worked, but what’s not to like when you have mascarpone and mozzarella on a béchamel based dough. Complete with cut chili and lemon-dressed rocket!

Braised chicken thigh in a creamy sauce with bacon, leeks, roasted mushrooms and herbs. Simple is not simple to be impressive.
