Foodie Adventures: Cucina Cafe & Restaurant

Hi hi :)
The other time, while Sammie and I went to Mu Parlour, some one sold us this card whereby we can enjoy one for one deals at Cucina.

275 Holland Avenue
Holland Village
Singapore 278993 
Tel: 9248 6662 

Operating Hours: 
Sunday - Thursday, 18:00 to 23:00; 
Public Holidays, 11:30 to 15:00; 
Friday - Saturday, 18:00 to 23:30; 
Eve of Public Holidays, 18:00 to 23:30

It is located right beside D'good cafe :)
I went there twice, so I'll compile the photos, and I might add on more as the deal is valid till December hehe.



The first time I went, it was after school, around 2-3pm, so the lunch crowd was gone.
It was nice because we got to enjoy :)



Wild Funghi soup ($9.90)
This is good in my opinion, it wasn't too thick, like you won't feel sick after drinking it.
But then again, it's a little pricey for me. Haha.





Seafood risotto ($28.90)
This wasn't very good though. I thought risottos are supposed to be stickier?
Maybe it's just my personal preference. Even Sammie said there was nothing fantastic about it.



Smoked salmon with caviar in vodka cream ($23.90)
First, I couldn't taste the vodka LOL
But then, this was nicer than the risotto HAHAHAHA.

Okay, so, of course, we were only charged for the risotto because of the one for one deal :)


Then I went back there the next day for Theo's belated bday celebration with my level 5 short wing girls.




Hawaiian Pizza ($18.90)
Thin crust pizza haha. It wasn't that bad, but to me, pizzas all taste the same LOL
I still love the Classified chicken one from Domino's :P



Sausage pizza ($20.90)
This was a bit salty for me, probably because of the sausage LOL
But still not that bad :)



Clam Vongole ($18.90)
The amount of clams in this is ridiculous. HAHA
But it's good because I like clams. However, I can't taste the spaghetti. Look at how little spaghetti there is :(



Bacon Aglio Olio ($18.90)
THIS THIS THIS.
This is a must try! Even though it's a bit oily, it's really delicious.
It's also spicy, so if you can't take spicy food, you'll have to be careful LOL
JUST TRY THIS WHEN YOU GO THERE! :)



Oh and, did I mention, the coupon/card thing I bought came with a free bottle of red wine.
I don't usually appreciate red wine, but it was quite good, even my friend who drinks wine said so!
In the end, we couldn't finish because we had to rush back for coach supper, which was another round of calories accumulation HAHA.

As you can see, the dishes here are slightly pricey, and I wouldn't have eaten here if not for the coupon I bought. I'm not that rich, even though I like to eat at cafes ><

But anyway, I think it'll be a nice place to go to for a special occasion. With that said, it is definitely not comparable to those super atas (high class) restaurants. Speaking of restaurants, maybe I should check out restaurant week and try out some restaurants :)
