First visit, just the Tipo' the iceberg! Tip: Sign up for the Black Hole Group membership and get 400 points on your birthday month (= 2x $20 voucher) on top of other perks! We dropped by on a Wednesday night and there were seats avail.
Aglio Alright ($19.90) - Tiger prawns | EVOO | Garlic Confit | Sous Vide Egg | Grana Padano. I thought the flavours and texture were all over the place; was expecting an aglio olio style pasta but the egg made it creamy and muted the garlic flavour. Also, made a mistake and added the bird's eye chilli which was so so spicy haha!
Creamy Crab ($24.90) - Crabmeat | Garlic Cream Sauce. This was delicious! Generous lumps of crabmeat, paired very well with the addictive, garlicky, creamy sauce. Adding additional garlic chips and chilli flakes was a good touch too.
Overall, Tipo has a wide selection of house special pastas and their fresh pasta choices were also good, albeit I couldn't really taste much of it. However, the place was quite cramped and echoey, and on the night we visited there was a large group with kids seated right in the middle of the restaurant. The kids were running around and made a huge ruckus, with us unfortunately being seated right beside them. We just quickly finished our meal and left the venue before the annoyance level creeped up. Perhaps the large tables could be situated at the corner of the restaurant to minimise such disturbances.
