Picolino Orchard

There was no queue for a weekday lunch. Ordered 2 lunch sets (appetizer + pizza/pasta + dessert + drink) and a calamari for 3 pax and portion was good enough. Each pax came up to be about $30. We enjoyed the everything we ordered except that the desserts were too sweet for our liking and cappuccino's foam from the machine was way too thick. Caesar's salad was well tossed, tomato soup was tangy and served hot, calamari's good not too chewy, pasta texture was just nice and well seasoned, margherita pizza's pretty unique but in a good manner. Service was ok. Ambience wise was good for chatting when we were there. Helpful that the server tried to direct us to table away from kids to manage our noise expectations. Restaurant closes at 3 pm for interim rest. Just read the underwhelming reviews while writing this, hopefully the standard will still be maintained when we next visit. A little concerned about the food poisoning posts, hope the restaurant keeps up with strict hygiene practices. It's a decent restaurant and we don't mind returning.

A cosy little restaurant in Shaw centre’s third floor, my sister and I really enjoyed our lunch set here. Portion was generous. Each dish was created beautifully. You can also use your Burpple beyond vouchers here - but perhaps more worth to be used for ?dinner, as the lunch set seems more worth. We redeemed our Burpple voucher for the drinks instead. Service was great too! Kudos to the team.

Casual Italian diner with a good spread of pastas and pizzas to choose from. They have some unique local flavours such as the laksa pizza which was fresh and refreshing with the coconut 🥥 spicy taste. The carbonara was also generously filled with bacon bits and the runny egg make the texture smooth and appetizing. It was half empty on a weekday night and offers great atmosphere for small gatherings.

Good place for gatherings. They were quite adamant about 75 min dining time but didn’t really enforce it because there were quite a few empty tables. Selection of pizzas is definitely more interesting than pasta which is what I would usually go for. The pizza with burrata is one I would recommend.

The standouts among what we ordered were definitely the Margherita pizza (which came with a generous serving of pesto) and tiramisu (not pictured). Both pastas tasted quite pleasant! However the bacon gnocchi was on the salty side for our preference and the aglio olio could have included better quality seafood for the price tag although it was very well-cooked. Overall a nice place to hang out especially if you’re having the set lunch (which my friends and I did not as we came for dinner), but some menu items have a disproportionately steep price tag considering the quality.

Simple and awesome Italian fare tucked in the quiet corner of Shaw Centre. The Aglio Olio with prawns is not bad, I wished it has a bit more garlic. The fried calamari is a must, very fresh squids and the squid slices are thick. Also ordered their cocktails to go along. Service is prompt, nice place to have a chill meal.

Reasonably good food tucked away on the third floor of Shaw Centre (not Shaw Plaza which it is connected to). Would recommend making a reservation especially during dinner hours on weekends as the place isn’t very large at all. Service is reasonably quick as orders are made through a QR Code and payment is made at the table where you’re seated.

Loved the margerita here, with the pesto sauce and the mini burrata. Beef cheek parpadelle was a tad overcooked but the beef cheek was soft. Tiramisu was one of the better ones we tasted.
