Argentinian Prawn Pasta? I didn’t expect the Argentinians to do pasta, but I really shouldn’t be that surprised considering that pasta is pretty much a universal dish. While it is neither a hundred percent Italian or Argentinian, @tonito.singapore piquant prawn pasta is definitely a hundred percent exquisite.

Silky strands of spaghetti done al dente are bathed luxuriously in a palatable pomodoro sauce, and fortified with two titanic Argentinian prawns, littleneck clams & shredded crabmeat. The sauce is a textbook example of how to do an excellent pomodoro : smooth, thick, garlicky, and jam packed full of satisfying savouriness with just a little sweet & sourness to shake it up. Just the perfect sauce for the pasta.

As one would expect of any self respecting restaurant, all of the seafood on the plate were commendably fresh. The huge prawns still retained their subtle sweetness, but now boasted a newly acquired smokiness from being grilled expertly. Garlic & prawns are a match made in heaven, and this is definitely seventh heaven. I mean, the prawns are comprehensively blanketed by fried garlic. Unless you’re Dracula, that’s Flavortown on the back of a couple of prawns.

As for the clams & crabmeat, they don’t add much in the way of flavour, but they definitely complete the dish and give it a sublimely satisfying weight. The crabmeat in particular will ensure that almost no mouthful is purely pasta and nothing else. Nossir, the carbs are completed by all the deeply satisfying seafood that rounds it all out. If you’re ravenously hungry and have an insatiable craving for pasta, this ponderous plate of prawn pasta is just what you need.

But wait, there’s MORE! With the brilliance of #burpplebeyond, you can enjoy TWO plates of this amazing Argentinian Prawn Pasta for the price of one! That’s right, TWO of these Argentinian beauties for the low, LOW price of $26++! Now, I’m crying for this Argentinian prawn pasta, but they are most definitely joyful tears.

Thank you so much for the invite, @tonito.singapore and @burpple!
