Pasta Is Love Pasta Is Life 🥰

Visited the dunearn outlet! Service staff were very polite and friendly :)

Ordered the Tagliolini al Nero di Seppia con Salsa di Granchio ($19.90) which is a homemade squid-ink tagliolini with crabmeat in white wine sauce. Just a note that the picture above shows a half portion! (The chef helps to split the food into half, pretty thoughtful).

Our bad for not reading the menu properly as we expected a creamy squid ink like pasta. However the taste is pretty decent! I enjoyed the garlicky taste accompanied by the abundant amount of crabmeat. One thing to point out would be that the squid ink taste isnt very prominent though. Would rate this a 8/10.

Read my other reviews for the La Pizzaiola Speciale (pizza) and Creme Brûlée dessert!

Visited Eleven Strands on a Friday night around 8pm and we had to wait ~10mins for a seat! Nonetheless food was served pretty quickly. Heard many good things about the pasta and it was a no-brainer to order it. It was creamy, the prawns were v juicy and the pesto flavour really shines through! Also opted for the handmade tagliatelle (+$3). Used burpple and paid $33.10 for this and lamb shank.

Verdict: 9/10

Ps: for those that drive down there’s a big carpark right across, as well as street parking beside the restaurant!

ordered the grilled miso cod capellini ($30), char-grilled spiced french chicken ($30) and beer-battered white bait ($12)! Shared between 4 people

miso cod capellini was good! Would def order this if i come here again. 8.5/10

The chicken was alright, but not spectacular. Personally i didn’t really like the sauce so i probably would give this a miss. 6.5/10

The white bait comes with freshly shaved wasabi snow and wasabi mayo dip. Tgt it tasted pretty good and addictive! Would order this again :) 8/10

Used burpple 1-1!

Tried the cheesy ham and truffle mushoom pasta and the granchio pasta.

The -cheesy ham and truffle mushroom pasta- is rly rly cheesy! Even though it got a lil jelak towards the end (as most cheesy items do) the richness of the pasta is something you cant undermine. You can actually see the cheese pull tooo. Will rate 8/10!

As for the granchio, its alright but not the best. Seafood taste isnt v prominent :( Would rate a 6.5/10.

Overall paid ~$26 for 2 pastas with their 1 for 1 promo :)
