Fico

East Coast Park was lacking a good restaurant for many years, until Fico showed up. The space, run by ex-Braci chef Mirko Febbrile, is the place to go to if you’re craving for exceptionally good pasta, focaccina and of course, dessert. Be warned that it’s going to be hard to grab a seat at the best of times, but trust us when we say it’s worth the wait. Ask to seat al fresco at a corner table (you won’t like the acoustics indoors) and start your night with the Tropea Onions focaccina, Charred Red Peppers and Tomino Cheese. Throw in a Freshly Baked Bread Basket if you’d like, but be careful to not overdose on bread. Do everything in your power to save space for pasta, pasta, pasta; the Cacio e PepeBurnt Wheat Balanzoni  and Denti Del Drago… get them all. Portions are small but they pack a punch, and before you roll out of the restaurant a happy man, do everything within your power to save room for dessert—the freshly fried Cannoli is a masterpiece we will be back for again and again.

Robb Tip: Fico is dog-friendly and has plenty of water bowls to go around.

Gotti

Gotti doesn’t bill itself to be the best pizzeria in Singapore—they really shouldn’t, but they do offer some of the best pizzas around. The dough sits around for three days before getting stretched and fired into favourites—Margherita, Diavola, Tartufo and Quattro Formaggi, to name a few. One can expect big, punchy flavours and a crust that’s crispy where you need it and soft when you want it; a crust that’s perfect for mopping up any leftover sauces that you may find.

Robb Tip: Pastas are great, too. Order the Arrabiata if you love spice.
