Griglia Open Fire Italian Kitchen - Meat, Fish and Seafood Cooked with Cast Iron Charcoal Grill

Griglia Open Fire Italian Kitchen is a contemporary Italian grill restaurant inspired by summer outdoor grill known as the Grigliata. Beloved by Italians, Grigliata is the outdoor grill cook-out where guests typically will bring their favourite dishes along. Multiple courses are enjoyed over a long afternoon, leisurely savouring appetisers and side dishes while sipping tasty wines, before embarking on the main course.

 

The open kitchen affords diners a dynamic view of the vigorous action around the stunning cast iron charcoal grill specially customised from Russia. Almost all the ingredients, and not just meat, fish and seafood, are cooked with this cast iron charcoal grill.

 

Griglia serves antipasti, artisanal salumi, main courses, sides, cheeses and desserts, and carries an extensive range of more than 100 wines from different regions, with up to 85% from Italy. Cocktails focus on different flavours of Negroni, Spritz and Gin & Tonic. Traditional Italian digestives, such as limoncello, amaro and grappa are also served.

 

Eggplant ($15.00++) A lighter rendition of the Neapolitan parmigiana, this vegetarian antipasti presents tangy and succulent layers of grilled eggplants, tomato and basil.

 

Burratina ($16.00++) A modern take on the traditional Neapolitan appetiser, the thinly sliced Zucchini is marinated with olive oil, mint and garlic, then served on the thin and crispy tart with fresh burratina and garnished with herbs and olive oil.

 

Hiika Squid ($18.00++) An interpretation of the way Italians combine different appetisers on a plate, the calamari is smoked, and the light nduja foam deepens the savouriness of the dish.

 

Hokkaido Scallops crudo ($22.00++) A grigliata classic of seafood, corn and lemon. A perfect balance of sweetness from the caramelisation of the corn and briny tang from the scallops.

 

Spaghetti di Martino ($18.00++) Celebrating the simplicity of Italian cuisine, the star of this dish is Datterino tomatoes brined in sea water to maintain the freshness of the produce.

 

House-Made Pappardelle ($20.00++) A soulful plate filled with deep flavours of tender pork jowl that has been cooked over long hours in a rich Chianti reduction.

 

Open Fire Grill highlights an irresistible selection of beef, lamb, pork and fish. Aged beef and brined pork are used for its deep complex flavours to enhance the overall dining experience.

Whole Spanish Turbot (400g, $58.00++) / (800g, $98.00++) Grilled whole turbot served with romaine lettuce and almalfi lemon dressing

Grass Fed Wagyu Striploin MBS ¾ (200g, $68.00++) Wagyu striploin served with pickled mustard, red wine jus, garlic sauce and pickled lettuce dressed with balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil

 

Capri in a cake ($10.00++) A classic limoncello caprese served with Amalfi lemon cream and extra virgin olive oil ice cream.

Pillow-y Soft Bolo Bun at Tanjong Pagar - Champion Bolo Bun

Since I am around the hood, pop by to get some Champion Bolo Bun to snack. Their Bun are fresh out of the oven every 15 minutes throughout the day. Highly recommended to enjoy these freshly baked bolo buns within 20 mins. 

These pillow-y soft buns are light and fluffy coated with a layer of crust that are crisp and crunchy. I bought some home to continue snacking, it’s still good but as per recommendation, it’s better to have it fresh over there.

What I had are their Classic ($4.50) and 4 Mini Classic ($4.50) Personally, I preferred the mini bite-sized version as it’s easy-to-eat, can pop-in these mini within mins. Haha.

I will be back to try their Classic with add on extra slices of butter and the Curry Potato.

Mezcla - NEW Japanese Mexican Taco Bar

Mezcla, a NEW Japanese Mexican Taco Bar concept brought to you by THE FEATHER BLADE & RAPPU. 

Currently, they are doing 6 weeks special pop-up at RAPPU (52 Duxton Road) happening on every Tuesday, lunch and dinner from 21 Sept to 26 Oct 2021!

When comes it Tacos, I personally preferred the crispy-shell taco rather than the soft-shell taco as it gives an extra crunch in every bites. I am glad that Mezcla uses the crispy-shell taco stuffed with quality & generous ingredients such as Uni, scallops, sashimi grade salmon, etc.

The pop-up menu is a 2 pax sharing menu ($120++) that offers diners a peek into Mezcla’s signature tacos:

SALMON (1pc) Crispy salmon skin taco, Ikura, Cured salmon, Edamame refritos

CARNITAS (1pc) Blue corn tortilla, Pork jowl, Ancho chile Edamame refritos, Pico de gallo

UNAGI (1pc) Seaweed taco, Unagi, Oyako tamago Japanese cucumber, Chipotle teriyaki

WAGYU (1pc) Blue corn tortilla, Wagyu brisket, Guacamole Guajillo, Gochugaru, Pickled onions

CRAB (1pc) Seaweed taco, Tempura soft shell Edamame refritos, Spiced mayo, Pico de gallo, Tobiko

*Note* The Chorizo shown in this pic is not included in the 2pax sharing menu.

UNI & SCALLOP (2pc) Seaweed tortilla, Grade A Uni Hokkaido scallop, Ikura, Togarashi mayo Pickled onion

CHURRO TACOS (2pc) Cinnamon sugar, Vanilla diplomat cream Valrhona chocolate, Gold flakes

Don’t forget to try some of their refreshing Margaritas that I think it goes quite well with their tacos. Total 6 fruity flavours (Lime, Kyoho, Strawberry, Mango, Peach & Pink Guava) in the menu at $13.00++ each. First time there and not sure what is your favorite? I would highly recommend you try their Flight of 3 (50ml of each flavour) $16.00++. At least you get to try 3 different flavours or make it 2 sets to try all 6 flavours.

 

I also got to try the Unicorn which is not available in Pop-Up Sharing Menu. I love that the Uni is topped on the char-grilled corns that give an extra crunchy bites.

Reservations can be made via Mezcla’s website (www.mezcla.sg). It will be a reservation-only event and in groups of 2 pax.
