Publico Ristorante (InterContinental Hotel)

𝐆𝐮𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐢𝐳𝐳𝐚 ($32) - Neapolitan style pizza with airy and crisp crust. Enjoyed the savory mix of goat cheese with sweet pumpkin cream, and crispy bits of cured pork cheek balanced by leafy vegetables.

𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐞 ($28) - Stuffed and well-balanced pizza pocket with stringy mozarella, prosciutto, pork sausage, juicy mushrooms, and tomatoes.

The sauce may be free of cream, however the sauce is still wrong. I think there's a misconception about creamless carbonara, anyone can throw egg and cheese tgt, but true carbonara has a particular creamy umami, not empty sourness which is common amongst the creamless carbonara here

Overall, we didn't have a pleasant experience here at all. Music was way too loud, they had this very shaky table, and the service was not attentive at all. Apart from once, we had to call them over for everything from refilling water to clearing plates. What's crazy is that we were literally the first table indoor and the only table for quite a while, so I'm really not sure what the service team was doing

So obviously mushroom soup isn't necessarily available every day

They don't sell half portions, they split one portion into two for 2 pax. Honestly this is enough for one pax

Well tbh this is a slightly above average mushroom soup. The thickness is appropriate, but the flavour isnt superb. The roasted mushroom is pretty decent tho, but each piece is too small

My second time at Publico and this time I was seated inside. They messed up our reservation and had to wait close to 30 min before we were seated.

Pasta weren’t great- the only one worth getting IMO was the beef lasagna which honestly is also quite expensive. But compared to the Linguine Vongole ($28) which was bland and tiny, this was way better. Pizzas are a safer choice.

We got the Deep Fried Mars Bars and Oreos ($16) for dessert and it was doughy. Very much preferred the ones from Chippy’s instead.

Music was also overwhelmingly loud. We found ourselves having to shout to each other which wasn’t pleasant at all.

Other than the ambience which was beautiful, I doubt I will return again considering it’s already my second time.
