Singapore Eats: White Pizza and White Pasta at Bella Pizza, Robertson Quay
Being unable to spend the weekend out-of-town often (unless you are out-of-country) in Singapore, weekends seem to be everyone's time to go for a foodie adventure. Orchard tends to be the most favourite area amongst both locals and visitors for a foodie adventure but sometimes, my friend and I like to venture kinda out-of-the-way too in order to pamper our tummy. This round, we came to Robertson Quay for an evening walk and pasta/pizza adventure at Bella Pizza.
Bella Pizza is located near the Singapore river, so if you managed to secure the table near the path, you can see the bridge and the river while enjoying the meal.
Bella Pizza offers two type of pizza, Red and White (talk about being nationalist...lol). To sum up the difference, red pizzas refer to those tomato-based pizza e.g. margherita. On the other hand, the white pizzas refer to those mozzarella-based pizza. We ordered an item from the white pizzas list, Pizza Mascarpone which is described as pizza with mozzarella, mascarpone, mushrooms and black truffle oil. The pasta looks crispy but it was so difficult to cut the pizza dough. Kinda a bummer as the topping is actually pretty tasty.
The pizza is best consumed with the condiments like chili flakes or if you are a cheese lover, extra cheese would not hurt. =P
Besides the pizza, we also ordered a plate of Carbonara to share amongst the two of us. The pasta taste so-so.
If you'd like to try staying at different part of Singapore (as opposed to those popular areas like Orchard, Bugis or City Hall), there are some hotels located in Robertson Quay area. You can find reviews on those hotels in Robertson Quay here.
