Gather the colleagues for lunch at this casual pasta joint! The menu sports usual suspects like the Bolognese ($10) and Aglio Olio (from $13), but it's the Asian-fusion offerings that take the spotlight. We recommend the zingy Chilli Crab ($15) as well as the Kimchi Spring ($15) – think crispy pork belly on al dente spaghetti tossed in a tangy kimchi sauce.
