In a recent trip to SIngapore during Raya holiday break, we checked out this famous celebrity chef Mario Batali’s restaurant in Marina Bay Sands.
The restaurant is divided into 2 sections: a casual pizzeria on the right and a bistro style restaurant on the left
Our reservation was made at 9pm but it was still quite packed by the time we reached Osteria Mozza. The restaurant offers a warm yet exquisite ambience, equipped with friendly waiting staffs and we were spoilt for choices on the menu.
Let’s see what we have picked for the evening.
Complimentary Ricotta Cheese
Mozzarella Tasting as one of the starter : bufala mozzarella, burrata & ricotta. It's a mozzarella bar so we couldn't have missed this right, however it' didn’t turn out that memorable… I like their accompanying garlic bread though :)
Grilled Octopus with potatoes, celery & lemon
nutty and zesty in flavor while the spring onion celery blended in really well. loved this dish
linguine with clams, pancetta & spicy chiles
I wouldn’t have thought of pancetta and clams as a combination but this was awesome
Pappardelle Verde with lamb ragú, olive Taggiasche & mint
This was probably the best dish among all, even for a non lamb eater like me it was so good that for a moment I thought it was tuna meat!
Diners were still coming in past 10pm… here comes our main courses
duck confit – tender and juicy but i didn’t quite enjoy it
Grilled Quail wrapped in pancetta with sage & honey - totally tastebud assault...but in a good way
Grilled Leg of Lamb with fregola sarda, mint & yogurt – this dish was a a little disappointing
Their wine list is at cut-throat prices so we picked one of the cheapest in the range. Not too bad. We were stuffed to the brim and had to skip dessert or else, the waiter might have to roll us out of the establishment LOL. Overall a very good experience, I would rate it 7 out of 10.
