2 years, 4 tests, 1 license. I’ve finally passed my driving test! Nothing (yes, not even crappy food) can prick my bubble of happiness today. But no worries there. If nothing else, I left Capricci with an even bigger smile on my face (if that’s even possible)!
Complimentary foccacia topped with tomatoes and herbs in a cute wok-like basket. I didn’t take to the strong cheesy taste.
Usually, I get bored of pasta after a few mouthfuls. But Tagliolini with Grouper, Zucchini and Saffron sauce ($22++) was so delicious that I can easily finish the whole serving all by myself. If I have to pinpoint what’s exactly so great about this, I would think that it’s the saffron sauce that transforms a simple plate of pasta into an extraordinary one. The aromatic fragrance was irresistible!
No complaints with Penne with Salmon and Pesto of Arugola ($22++) but it’s definitely not as awesome as the tagliolini. This is intended to be tossed in cream sauce but I had it changed to a tomato base instead. It’s interesting that fresh chili was also served with the pasta which gave a nice kick to it.
Sometimes, being adventurous doesn’t pay off. Semifreddo of Ricotta Cheese and Walnuts drizzled with Rum Liqueur($10++) didn’t impress at all. Though I like the texture of frozen mousse and crunchiness of the walnuts, this was rather bland and flavourless. And it helps if there’s more rum too as I could barely taste it.
Next time, I’ll just stick to the familiar classic Tiramisu ($10++). Moist, well soaked lady fingers distinct with espresso and the smooth, creamy whipped mixture of eggs and mascarpone cheese left me wanting more!
Great food aside, service was impeccable. The manager and the other waiters were attentive and prompt in offering recommendations, topping up our glasses and clearing the plates. Owner Mr Massimo came over to our table to welcome us personally and didn’t forget to give us a warm handshake when we left. Now, do you get why I like Capricci so much?
Firstly, congratulations on getting the license for perfect mobility! It’s more useful than any bachelor, masters, phd blah blah blah lor. Secondly, you are always one step faster in going to places I want to go 😛
