La Forkettta
I was at La Forketta for lunch today. Someone was buying so technically, price wasn't that much of a concern. La Forketta is located at Tanglin Village, in the nice little hub of restaurants; just opposite Prime Society.
It has an excellent layout with wall-tall glass windows permitting you to lookout into the carpark or greenery. The food is expensive of course since it is an Italian restaurant. It is one of those places that the tuna salad itself can go up to S$16. So yeah, "one of those places".
Since I am just tagging around, I was embarrassed to order the 3 set lunch course. It is about S$28. Please note that S$28 only entitles you to a non-meat main dish, meaning spaghetti. If you would like a meat main dish, you need to throw in S$8 more. I guess, all charges in would total up to around S$45. So I just ordered the spaghetti with clams. No big deal.
Oh, and next table was this group of Indians. One Indian woman was super annoying who keep wanting to know how her salad was done, what type of chili the restaurant used. I mean, it is a fucking salad, woman. They all taste the same once you pour enough olive oil over it.
After the thoroughly unsatisfying lunch, I went for early dinner and got myself Ayam Panggang (Malay grilled chicken with spices) for S$4.50. Now this is infinitely more satisfying than some fancy Italian salad.
The so called famous Singapore food scene is terrible.

We are famous for local dishes like chicken rice, satay... blah..blah..blah
There are only a few authentic good Italian resturant. The majority are locally-flavour Italian dishes.
La Forgettable is more like it.
