Gattopardo at Fort Canning

It was our first time at Gattopardo despite having heard good reviews from one of our best foodie friends - the service and food were both excellent. We had a room to ourselves and the privacy was fantastic.

Bread and flat crackers to start off the meal


Cold cuts platter with buffalo mozzarella, ox-heart tomatoes and rocket - this was really enjoyable.


Check out the stuff oozing out from the burrata ball


Grilled calamari (not on printed menu) - simple and nice


The crab pasta (not on printed menu) was excellent - it was very tasty, and the flesh of the crab was nice and firm. I would go back just for this.


Another view


Veal ravioli with truffles (not on printed menu) - this was lovely with a rich, buttery sauce. Licked up every last drop.


The bouillabaisse, or what they call zuppa de pesce ($38) was pretty normal. Nice but not particularly outstanding in my opinion.


The calzone with mushrooms and ham ($23) was cooked to perfection- the crust had a good texture and it's amazing how simple mushrooms and ham with a lot of cheese can be so yummy.


The most amazing dish was a salt-baked sea bass

Lovely


Condiments

Finally, dessert - a combination of various items from the menu.
