Bro, what’s a brodo? Despite sounding like the Malay word for an idiot, it’s a broth that’s thinner & less concentrated than the usual beef stock. Even though it’s supposedly less concentrated, @ameising.la.volta Spicy Chorizo & Seafood Tomato Brodo ($30++) is no less flavourful than any of its counterparts out there.⠀
⠀
The brodo is less concentrated meat stock and more spicy clear tomato soup, and each sip of broth will titillate your tastebuds with its savoury, tangy & spicy qualities. Despite its thin, liquid body, the brodo was the perfect bath for the freshly made pappardelle, which possessed an addictive chew. The Spicy Chorizo & Seafood Tomato Brodo is the most expensive pasta on Ameising La Volta’s menu, but it is also the most lavish.⠀
⠀
Even though the pair of tiger prawns weren’t quite as fresh as possible, they were still passable, and they hoovered up all that breathtaking brodo for maximum flavour. Protip: mix the brains & juices in the prawn head into the brodo for extra flavour. The abundant amount of clams in the pasta were fantastically fresh, and there is a charitable portion of fresh, subtly sweet shredded crabmeat in the pasta, plus there are copious chunks of spicy & smoky chorizo for maximum meaty satisfaction. Sautéed capsicum slices are present for little textural changes, injecting crunch into the soft, springy elements in this palatable pasta.⠀

Not only is Ameising La Volta’s stellar Spicy Chorizo & Seafood Tomato Brodo loaded with lots of indulgent ingredients, it’s also fully laden with lots of fabulous flavours. Better yet, they’re on #burpplebeyond too, so you can get two of their peerless pastas for the price of one! Thank you so much for inviting @wobblethebui & I, @ameising.la.volta!
