Mezza9 Restaurant & Bar @ Glomac Galleria, Desa Sri Hartamas

Thanks to Angelyn for the beautiful evening and also to Jimmy who sneak me in for this food tasting event.

Mezza9 brings you a whole new dining experience, concepts and designs out of Europe with Italian, French and Mediterranean fusion cuisines.

The food of the night was prepared by the award winning chef formerly from Sentidos Tapas, Starhill, Chef Sean Wong.

Mezza9 is named after the mezzanine floor that they have in the building. Their decor is much more on designer's furnitures and fittings.

 The mezzanine floor is basically a bar where they do serve wine as well.

On the food tasting night, Mezza9 had invite a few bloggers along who is Michael Yip, Issac Tan, Evelyn Ang, Anna Bella Wong, etc

Well, I actually got no idea what is the exact name for all the dish, but I'll try to recall what Angelyn had told me hehe...

We start off with the appetizer the wild mushroom soup, taste a bit sourish and this is due to the wild mushroom and also other variety of mushrooms

another soup I'd tried is.... (I actually don't know what is  the name of it =P)

Besides, we do have Caesar Salad and Salad with Balsamic sauce, love both of it very much!

Mezza9 do have tapas size of appetizer as well, as you know we loves to order a few items for sharing, and this would be just nice for everyone ;)

Salmon bruschetta

Mushroom bruschetta (love the soft baguette and creamy mushrooms)

 Braised ox-tail (finger licking good)

 Fried Calamari (i love squid =)

Meat Ball

After all the appetizers, actually we're kinda full... but there are more coming up which is the mains. And we have....

Pan-seared Salmon, loves the crispy salmon, especially the skin hehe...

Lamb Rack (medium rare) juicy meat and the marination is awesome!

Aglio-Olio and guess wart?! the chef have secret recipe of the hot olive oil! Do request if you need it ;)

 Paella ala Malaysia style as it's spicy

 Chunky Beef Spaghetti Bolognese

I forgot which part of beef is this, definitely not a sirloin and their portion are really generous.

Finally, done with the mains and is dessert time! we have the puff with ice-cream!

 and also the hot in the inside chocolate lava yumm yummm...

I would say the portion that Mezza9 serve is really generous with the awesome taste!

Capricci @ Tg Pagar, Singapore

Approx 3 weeks ago, I'd went to Singapore to celebrate my birthday with my dearest Jin Keat and my beloved Eddy. Jin Keat had recommend us to celebrate in Capricci where quoted as the Best Italian Fine Dining Restaurant in Singapore in Tg Pagar.

There's a distance to walk from the MRT station to Capricci but once you enter the restaurant you will be greet by the duo Massimo Aquaro and Chef Luca Carrino and they gives me a shocked. They actually waited for their guest to arrive(needs reservation) and both of them are very friendly and gives a good hospitality throughout the night.

(picture taken from Capricci website)

Even it's a very small shoplot but it do gives a very typical Italian home ambient.

For starter we had ordered two dishes which is the Fresh Scallop Carpaccio with Citrus Dressing, Hot Leeks and Truffle Oil at SGD20, no doubt it is really fresh ;)

Another starter which is the 36 months Cured Parma Ham with Rock Melon Sorbet SGD20, loves the saltiness of ham with the refreshing melon sorbet, where both blends in well and melt into your mouth!

As for main course where both Jin Keat and Eddy had go for pasta as they said a good Itallian dish is always to go for their pasta and Jin Keat had the Linguine with Vongole in White Wine Sauce at SGD22

For Eddy, he had the normal Aglio Olio at SGD20, no doubt both pasta is good.

And for me I had the Oven Baked Suckling Pig Sardinia Style with Mirto Liqueur on a Hat of Portobello Mushroom at SGD35 (birthday girl ma, must order the special dish hahaha) love the crispy suckling pig skin and the juicy meat with the huge portobello mushroom!

As for dessert we had share a Tiramisu at SGD15, to me it's a bit too dry maybe it's not using a lot of cream but it's more like a cake.

Also finish up with a glass of Avanti Cappucino but it's too bitter to me even added with sugar, bet the coffee bean is different from Illy eheheheheee....

Thanks to Jin Keat for buying me and Eddy dinner at Capricci mwaaaah xoxo
