Italian - Menotti

Brought lil bee over to Menotti at Raffles City for dessert.

He ordered a coffee and we ordered a dessert each.

Was kinda surprised when his coffee came like this...



with ice cream inside!

And the server poured the coffee in infront of us...



Its called Affogato Nocciole. Its expresso over hazelnut ice cream and roast nuts. It SO SO GOOD! Love the hazelnut ice cream! Costs $6.50.

For dessert, i ordered their panna cotta ($5.50)...



Its smooth vanilla pudding in a chocolate shell with forest berries. The layer of berries sauce above the pudding together with the pudding mixed well and tasted abit like yoghurt on certain tries but the pudding was smooth and the sweetness was just nice. Yum! But i found the portion kinda small.

Lil bee ordered a strudel...



its apple studel...



I tried abit of it. Its abit too sour for my liking and i guess i generally prefer apple crumbles to apple strudels.
