Lunch At Burlamacco

Boss hosted lunch for our trainee from Japan and we chose to try out the Italian Restaurant located at Amoy Street.

The restaurant was almost filled when we arrived and after browsing through the menu, we decided to order the Balsamic Grilled Octopus Tentacles which has always been my favorite and Burrito cheese served with cherry tomato and Parma ham as our appetizers.

I would give it a THUMPS UP for the Octopus tentacles… it was chewy and tasty. Though the tentacles were big but somehow it was just too good to share… I can finish it at one go…

I ordered the black squid ink risotto with gold leaf which was pretty good but I would very much prefer the angel hair sea urchin pasta which was delicious (though Otto’s preparation was BEST!). Otto’s sea urchin’s pasta was much tastier and refine compared to this.
For mains, I ordered their grilled grain fed beef tenderloin which was heavenly! Everyone had a small share of the beef and enjoyed very much though we were pretty stuffed.
We have to save the space for desserts of course and we ordered their Pannacotta with vanilla bean and berries… the presentation was simply pretty and it tasted just as good.
This restaurant served pretty good food though the price is slightly on the higher side. Will be back again.
