Italian Gourmet (11th Mar 2009)

I was in the mood for something cheap and filling, rather than good GOOD italian food. So i decided to go to the nearest stall near Ikea, which I was supposed to pick up some stuffs from.

Cream of mushroom

This soup tasted like canned soup.... maybe slightly less ingredients in it... My dining partner actually said the campbell tasted better....even if this was supposed to be made from scratch.

Garlic Bread
I like this alot. I like the fact there was enough butter, and they were generous enough to put some herbs to give it a better taste.

Gorgonzola Mushroom pasta
As I was having only vegetarian food, I replaced the ham in this dish for mushroom instead. It was done very well. I enjoyed this alot.

Formaggi pizza
Like the previous pizza I had at this place, the cheese wasn't enough. But then the extra packs of cheese shavings satisfy my need for at least one cheesey pizza slice.

This is a stall to come for cheap italian food, especially if I only go for vegetarian stuffs. It has the making of a neighbourhood stall, not a place to go for, if u are looking refined italian stuffs.

Squid Ink Risotto
this has a rather "been in the fridge too long" taste... I was wondering if it's the cheese or the squid that were causing the effects... Sometimes... I am quite easy going... except when the food has this taste... I rather not eat it.... though I finished the whole plate, trying to figure which was the one causing the taste I hate so much. I seriously hope that did not give the owner the impression that I actually like the dish.

Formaggi pizza
this pizza needed more work! the cheeses were pathetic little... i think MORE cheese might save it.

I think I would not give this another try.... unless I am looking for cheaper italian food and I don't mind the less than good taste.
