Italian - Pasta - Pasta Brava

I went on to meet up with Fiona for dinner at Pasta Brava....

Located at 11 Craig Road...



ard 5 minutes walk away from Tanjong Pagar MRT station......



I went in first as Fiona was held up at work....

The ambience of the place was great!



This is the menu..... Designed in the form like its some newsletter.....



Look at the variety of ravioli they have!! I'm sooooooo spoilt for choices!!!



They also have this little basket of chalks where we are allowed to draw on the mahjong paper on the table.....




So i drew.... Can you guess what this is?



haha.... i hope my drawing was ok.. a pic of the lamp on the table!



But i doubt it'll be nice enuff to be placed onto their wall of fame.....



lol.. that's where they pin up some of the drawings which i presume were drawn by guests....
When Fiona arrived, we ordered.....

We shared a soup of the day - Cream of Asparagus.....



Was not bad..

Our starter was fried calamari....



Tastes wonderful! Not rubbery but rather, crunchy (duno if u can use dat to describe elyn squid) lol.... Really.. its VERY GOOD!!!

Fiona's Marinara in cream tomato sauce......



U know how Marinara are usually tomato based, upon special request, they added cream for Fiona and it tastes really different and Fiona kept going on saying that its VERY GOOD! VERY NICE! haha...

As for me, i ... i know i said no more cream pasta.... i... give in to temptation! I had their beef ravioli in gorgonzola cheese sauce....



The server specifically warned me before ordering this.... coz apparently alot of locals couldn't take the cheese smell.. they find it too smelly.. They were surprised dat i could take the smell and actually quite liked it.... just dat u can't have too much of it or u'll probably feel sick.. portion was just right....

For dessert, the most unique item we figured was their caramel cream....



I din like it! Dun think Fiona likes it either coz its got abit of almond taste.... i dun like!

I'm not done with Pasta Brava yet! I still wana wana wana try their other ravioli!!! Anyone interested? hee....
