In a delicious lobster pink sauce. I don’t usually order pasta dishes in restaurants because I’ve found them to be mediocre at best. Besides, I’m (almost) always able to crank out better versions at home. But that changed today. I dare say it’s one of the best pastas I have ever had at a restaurant.

BRIEF: Rigatoni, Blue Swimmer Crab, Tomato, Garlic Crumb, Parmesan, Chili, Wine, Cream SOOT’S TAKE: This was tasty and unique.

Got the sauce packet at half price to try with an open bag of dry pasta at home. At first mouthful, you taste the sea. But after a few extra mouthfuls you’d be forgiven for mistaking it for local mee pok. I also probably cooked too much pasta for this sauce.

Not bad but not great either.

Fresh pasta cooked in a housemade Chinese XO sauce, served with sous-vide slipper lobsters and baby turnips.

“Linguine, stir fried clams, white wine, chicken broth, chilli padi, garlic, parsley.” Maybe the best dish of the evening, albeit nowhere close to anything worth writing home about.

BRIEF: “Light creamy curry sauce sauce with crabmeat.” SOOT’S TAKE: As described although I wouldn’t say the sauce was light. Could get monotonous too. & give you the runs.

This was kinda bland but I guess the drinks, nuts and cool jazz compensated. 🥃🎶
