La Mensa in Tanjong Pagar, Singapore
Here's another restaurant whose opening fell into the circuit breaker period. Next to The Daily Cut at Guoco Tower (7 Wallich Street #B2-15), they serve affordable bowls of pasta. My first few bites didn't start out well though: the calamari batter was rather dense, the aglio e olio was sweet, and the ragù alla bolognese oddly reminded me of American barbecue sauce. I know that sounds rather harsh, but I did like the rich carbonara with its smoky bits of guanciale at least. Most importantly, the pasta wasn't overcooked. I'd be interested in trying the funghi next time, if we don't order from LINO, that is.
