OSO RISTORANTE

Oasia Hotel Downtown, Level 27, 100 Peck Seah Street, S(079333) TEL: 6327 8378 Chef Diego Chiarini helms the kitchen and offers a mix of authentic and contemporary Italian fare that uses the best seasonal harvest. You’ll taste it in the tonno, where the thinly sliced tuna covers a fresh green salad that tastes as if it’s just been picked from the garden. The angel-hair pasta features al dente strands generously tossed with crabmeat, tomato and garlic; the subtle heat from the chilli prevents it from becoming cloying. The tiramisu—a classic 1956 recipe—provides a sweet ending to a satisfying meal. A typical Italian meal must include tipples and the extensive wine list is dominated by Italian labels, with a couple of choices from other wine regions.
