Pasta & Pizza

One of their signature items, this Peking duck pizza looked pretty normal but it was actually quite tasty! 😜

Using smoked duck and their own homemade hoi sin sauce, this tried-and-tested pizza combo was a hit at our table and sure to be a hit with the kiddos too. The menu did state there would be spring onions, though it was missing on ours.

Don't take too long to start on this though as the cheese is the kind that'll harden up! 👆

Having carved out a reputation for very well-executed signatures like the French Duck Confit, Mushroom Risotto and Pulled Duck Burger, I am really pleased that Chef Shaun isn't resting on his laurels. Instead, he continues to create new reasons to keep his customers returning. A fine example is this "Giant Prawn Risotto", a soon-to-be-launched dish on his "Secret Menu" that is more than aptly named.
I have happily slurped up the yummy Prawn Risotto previously, so for me, this is an upgraded, upsized, everything-also-upped version of it. Aside from the XXL prawns which bowled me over with their super fresh, firm and very sweet succulence, every chewy grain of the risotto also packed intense flavours of prawn stock and rich Parmesan. I thought the final act of torching the dish at the table was fun and interesting too.

Hands down one of the best risotto I've ever had. The risotto has captured in all the essence of the prawn stock plus it's creamy base making it so divine. Every single grain is so delicious. The giant prawn itself also had a firm and flavorful flesh, so mouth-watering!

my favourite dish at creatureS!
the risotto was well-executed with luscious creamy texture. every grain was plump and absorbed the seafood stock, and it achieved the right balance between softness and al dente.

Prawn Risotto. Impeccably done rice with perfect bite; couldn't fault the rich prawn stock teamed with the sweetness of corn bits. #risotto #rice #prawns #italianfood #sgfood #yum #ilovemyjob

The chef sure knows how to coax all the prawn flavour out of the fresh-from-the-market prawns because this dish is packed with the powerful essence of the crustaceans. Cooked in olive oil with sweet baby tomatoes and chilli, the two plates we ordered for sharing, went down well with everyone at the table. All too swiftly, they were slurped up.

The pizza crust at Cicheti is soooo good, I'd even eat it on its own. Loaded with quality ingredients, it becomes even more unforgettable. We had the Bismark, Carbonara and Quattro Formaggi, and all three were delicious. I must say though, the Carbonara edged out the others as my favourite as it had bacon :) The sole salad on the lunch menu proved to be the perfect accompaniment to our rich pizzas.
