[CLOSED] The Wicked Garlic (International Plaza)

Very affordable pasta with satisfying portion. Lots of cheese and cream it can get pretty jelat after a while. The squid ink pasta (not pictured) is slightly salty and umami yet doesn’t have a strong squid ink smell if that’s what you are into

Combining the convenience of the location and the month long craving for pasta, I swung by quickly to have late lunch after running errands. As usual, the food is comforting and the portion is generous with chunks of crabmeat at every bite. Even when I was done with the carbs, there was enough sauce for another serving of pasta. Really generous. I have to say, over the past 5 years, the taste is consistently good and the price is still pocket friendly.

Soon, we may not have the privilege of a dine in experience, but while we can, be thankful for the staff that continues to serve, the warm food that is served straight from the kitchen, the freedom to dwell outdoors.

This dish came wrapped in baking paper. Not sure if baking it provided any more flavour than just cooking it in a pan, or if it was merely for fancy presentation. The tomato sauce was tasty, but the seafood had sand in it. Overall, didn't feel the higher price was justified compared to their more affordable pastas!

Price: $19

Got the crabmeat penne and requested for a switch to linguine. The sauce was creamy with lots of crabmeat. If you don't set your standards too high, this is quite value-for-money!

Price: $13

Shattered crabmeat with Penne.
However is just worth 1 time try instead.

Hoping to maximise the time I have during the last few days of recess week to finish up schoolwork and to get more rest before kickstarting the next half of the semester! 💪🏻 Honestly feeling quite drained and gonna be chanting more to recharge. 今天一早就遇到不講理的人，真的是有種跳進黃河也洗不清的感覺。硬是說我昨晚在群組對另一個男生講的話不恰當，但我對這個上了一天班的朋友說的是「如果你在附近就來吧，如果很遠的話還是回家休息」。重點是當事人也不是她LOL。最後道歉不是因為我覺得應該道歉，而是覺得對方生命境涯很低或許就是要聽那句sorry才爽。最後我還謝謝她的「好意」，下次會注意用詞。然後她回了個「希望如此」其實我根本不覺得我說的哪裡錯了🤣 ohwells 想著不輕菩薩，然後提醒著自己每個人都有佛性！💓
