A unique and tasty dessert, this features an interesting combination.

Within a crumbly pastry tart shell with buttery sweet flavour, is a soft vanilla and cream cheese mousse that carries bright floral cheesy salty sweet flavour.

For the suakus like me, sprats are from the same sub-species as sardines and are often labelled as such. They are high in omega-3 oil content and have a smooth creamy flavour.

Picolino serves them deep fried with a side of charred tomato and capers dip. The dip was lovely with a deep smokey and subtle sweet sour flavour. As for the sprats, they kinda reminded me of Japanese smelts (or shishamo) without the roe.

It may be a one off but I wasn't a big fan of this dish as the batter was kinda burnt and tasted rough and bitter but it was (partially) saved by the dip.

Picolino is one of the newer additions to the Les Amis group of restaurants. Like their sister restaurant Lino, Picolino serves casual Italian fare but with an Asian twist.

The good folks from Picolino hosted us for a #burpple #eatup a couple of months ago and we really enjoyed their food.

I am not a fan of sweet potato but I would make an exception for Picolino's sweet potato fries. The outside was crisp and the inside moist and sweet. It also comes with a tangy sriracha honey dip which was strangely addictive.

Strong brew offee with balanced milk ratio; tad bitter..

Lady fingers soft & moist, rich with espresso & kahlua liqueur; topped with thick layer of chantilly cream; would be better if there's a thicker or another layer of lady fingers..

Pork with equal meat to fat ratio, well-marinated with no gamey taste but was quite tough; 5-spices cream sauce tastes quite light; potatoes cube is deep-fry to crispy; with fresh greens drizzled with balsamic dressing..

Japanese rice is slightly hard; topped with furikake, crunchy pickles, seaweed & sous vide egg which complements each other well after a good tossing; tuna slices fresh & seared to medium rare..

Used the burrple beyond 30% off for our lunch. The place itself had very limited indoor seating but we managed to get an indoor seat as we came before the lunch crowd.

I had the steak and eggs while my gf had truffle mushroom pasta. The steak was a little tough even though it was cooked medium-ish. Also, I think the meal could use more salt as the meat tasted abit bland. However, when paired with the sauce it was much better. The bread was also quite nice as it tasted quite fresh/soft(?) despite the appearance.

The truffle mushroom pasta had quite a strong taste as well but also a little lacking in salt. Maybe it’s the trend for less salty food in CBD. It still tasted quite nice due to the natural taste of mushrooms but my gf felt quite jelak and didn’t finish it.🤡

Overall still a decent meal with the 30% discount but don’t think I’ll be back because I don’t like the small tables there.

Overall rating: 6.5/10 (couldn’t bring myself to give a 7)

This unique dish was fantastic, so delicious.
.
Features large boneless fillets of barramundi fish, coated in the house shrimp paste, then deep-fried. It's crispy outside and tender flaky inside, with a gentle savoury sweet flavour.
.
Plated with crisp shallots and juicy pomelo chunks, which lend vegetal fruity sweet sour flavour.
.
The dish is generously served with a bright gravy, infused with pomelo and mango juice and red chili, lending a sharp fruity sweet sour spice kick. Among our favourite dishes here.
