Trattoria L'Operetta

Warm and homely, this restaurant exudes a very strong Italian scent from its wood fire pizza oven the moment you enter to its decor and the smell of pizza and pasta. Adding to the food scene along tanjong katong road is Trattoria L'Operetta, a relatively small but homely Italian restaurant. 

Don't expect candlelight ambiance when you come here, but look forward to great meal and time of sharing with your friends or family. 

I had the opportunity of tasting their Margherita pizza which came looking pretty impressive - slightly charred and a little bubbly - having freshly baked in their wood fire pizza oven. You'll love the pizzas here if you are looking for a thin yet slightly chewy pizza crust. Simple yet flavorful, I love the way the cheese pulls.

The Fettucine Bolognese was cooked al dente while the tomato sauce was not overpowering. I found the beef chunks a little dry though.

We ended the dinner on a sweet note with a dessert platter consisting of Torta Al Cioccolato, Baba Al Limoncello, Tiramisu Al Caffe and Cannoli Siciliani. The chocolate tart's filling was rich but the tart shell was disappointing, while I savoured the classic Neapolitan cake dipped in lemon liqueur. On the other hand, I felt the cannoli was nothing to rave about while the tiramisu was tasty yet a little too wet for my liking.

I had an enjoyable dinner that night, having met the funniest restaurant manager to date too haha.
