Discovered this not so hidden gem looking for a late night snack one night.
I never usually trust Pizza u0026 Pasta while in a foreign country, it's not like you're going to find an Italian in the back making your dish. I was surprisingly wrong.
While this "Beachhouse Meets Cute Date Night" venue is a little more on the expensive side for eateries you'll find in Thailand, it was well worth the extra Baht.
The service staff was very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu items.
I had the Tuna Carpaccio to start. I've had some ups and downs with Tuna while in Thailand, ranging from Canned Tuna to high quality Yellowfin. This dish did not disappoint on freshness and quality, a vibrant pink and rich flavour. I was left a bit longing for some more texture complexity though. Overall a great starter and a large portion.
The real treasure here was the hand made Italian pasta, something I thought I would never see on my travels through this country.
I dove head first into the Gnocchi Boscalola. Now the owner might put a bounty on my head for this, but the creamy mushroom sauce brought me straight to the rich u0026 buttery heaven of french cooking. Paired with what I believe was a mild Thai sausage, the fluffy handmade Gnocci and a nice glass of red, if I wasn't next to a coconut tree, I could have easily been in the busy city of Rome.
All in all, I spent 800 bath with 2 drinks for myself.
You can always tell when someone is passionate about their craft. This is one spot you do not want to miss. See you next time around!
