1.) Gigi Gastrobar & Bistro
Location: 4 Marina Blvd, #01-31 The Sail at Marina Bay, Singapore 018986
If you find yourself in Singapore, you absolutely have to embark on a culinary adventure at Gigi Gastrobar & Bistro, an enchanting Italian restaurant conveniently located near the Downtown MRT station. This charming establishment has evolved significantly, growing from a small shop in Marina Bay Link Mall to a spacious and sophisticated venue at the 1st level of The Sail. Upon stepping inside, you will be embraced by an inviting atmosphere that sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. Our journey commenced with the Impepata di Vongole, where clams were impeccably cooked in a flavorful white wine sauce with chili, shallots, and coriander, instantly transporting us to the coastal shores of Italy. Following that, we savored NERO, a striking black risotto featuring sautéed mixed mushrooms, truffle cream, mozzarella, and charcoal breadcrumbs. Each mouthful was an explosion of rich, earthy flavors. The Risoto Arosgosta followed, a lavish dish with succulent lobster meat bathed in a natural lobster bisque sauce and beurre monté, offering a luxurious taste of the sea. Gigi's Aglio Olio & Peperoncino was a delightful spin on the classic, with linguine harmoniously mingling with garlic, chili, olive oil, parsley, and parmesan. To complement our feast, we relished a refreshing mocktail called Strawberry Fields and expertly crafted cocktails like the timeless Old Fashioned and a rich Espresso Martini.
