Pastapastapasta

Everyone knows I love pasta. There's definitely something special about this form of carbs that makes it irresistible. Having heard a lot about Linguini Fini since it opened earlier in the year, food buddies and I have finally decided to pay a visit on Friday night as the start of our frenzy weekend escape.

Appetizers:

Caprese/Fried Calamari/Cherry Tomato, Mozzarella, Garlic Flatbread/Mussels/Salami, Goat Cheese, Pickled Chilis Flatbread/Artisan Salumi Platter

Mains:

Arthur Ave. Linguini with Clams/Spaghetti Carbonara/Fazzoletti 'Nose to Tail Bolo'/On Top of Spaghetti/Fettucine Funghi

Dessert:

Tiramisu/Hot Chocolate Affogato 

Homemade mozzarella for the Caprese yuuuum!

Couldn't resist the calamari despite my cholesterol alert :/

Their flat bread is a must try!

Featured: Fettucine Funghi and Fazzoletti 'Nose to Tail Bolo'

The On Top of Spaghetti

Tiramisu!

Just realized that we did have quite a bit for 6 people. No wonder we were all so stuffed by the end of the meal. But when it comes to food, definitely the more the merrier! :) 

I liked the relaxed and chilled ambience of the restaurant, how it's the go-to place for an after-work drink followed by a nice dinner. It works for a fun date as well as a big party group. Food wise, we loved certain dishes, but some were a little bit on the iffy side. Personal favourite: the caprese, flat bread, fettucine funghi and tiramisu. The not-so-memorable ones: spaghetti carbonara and the linguini with clams. 

Customer service was great though, apart from our server being a little pushy. Incident during the night: we had our second round of orders as another friend joined us half way. Then out of nowhere the fettucine funghi appeared on our table (which we did not ordered). The manager swung by and said 'it's okay, it's on the house then!'. Double thumbs up for free food! :)

Interesting fact for Linguini Fini: they take reservations only if you have a party of 6 or above. We're coming back in a couple of weeks for my birthday dinner! Time to try out the remaining dishes!

I got a new camera and have been testing it out! That's why the pictures above are all on the yellow mellow side as I am still learning how to use it properly. But I am definitely amazed by how it can capture dust so well in broad daylight, proven by the picture below. I guess it also means it's time to start doing a massive clean for my room.... 

Last but not least, my first eBay purchase! The 'rock paper scissors' ring! 

Take that! ;)
