So we went to La Cantina in Venezia in Changi Village hotel instead.
Firstly, the view is lovely. Basically, you're seated on the 8th floor and out on the 'patio', you can see the sea. Sunset would be lovely to watch.
The most ideal plan would then be to get there early around 6pm and hopefully catch some sunset while chilling out with a nice glass of wine.
Then order some appetizers after soaking in the wonderful view before diving into the main agenda. Problem was - the waitress was too good at selling. I think she forgot Singaporean girls generally do not eat alot. We set off with warm bread (which was lovingly buttered and went down well with the olive oil and vinaigrette), calamari, the platter of mixed italian sausages and luckily, we were wise enough to cancel the mixed antipasti.
The portion for the sausages were gigantor. Thus, main agenda was reduced to only a plate of pizza (which I'd declare as the highlight of the night) and pasta. We took the vegetarian pasta which was delicious but I felt it was not well cooked enough (a tad 'hard' if you ask me, but was told that's how 'real' Italians do it). The pizza was thin crust and the parma ham was lovely... plus I enjoy generously dipping my portion with tabasco sauce.
To end the night, we shared lemon sorbet which was wonderful.
All in all, would like to come back again... with more time to spare and indulge in other selections on the menu. Two thumbs up and would like to grow a third....
