Pietrasanta - The Italian Restaurant
A quaint, tranquil neighbourhood nestled in the course of lush greenery off Portsdown Road, Wessex Estate is a colonial-style residential area with charming black-and-white houses.
Opened by Jennifer Tan and her husband, Loris Massimini, an experience Italian chef who honed his skills in Italy and Singapore, this restaurant will be officially opened on Saturday, 12th April. One of the things I like about this place is the simplicity of the décor and furnishing. Diners have a choice of sitting in the spacious dinning area inside or dine al fresco outside the courtyard.
For a start, we were given Home-made Breads and Olive Oil & Balsamic Vinaigrette to dip with. The bread was well flavoured with herbs though I preferred them to come hot instead of served cold.

Hi jojo!
Yep. It it will be officially launched by JTC tmr.
When is your exam gonna be done? I am pretty sure the crowd will start streaming in once the news gets out.
I honestly wish it weren't turn out to be another Dempsey cos I really love the ambience now.
You have a fabulous food blog. :-)
Hi Jeena,
Thanks for the compliments!
hi i stumble upon ur review and tried it for my bdae dinner.
i tried the sausage with cheese raviolli. it was really nice!
but you should try the lamb racks. it was soooo soft, and tho medium well, it doesnt have any smell. it literally melts in my mouth.
thanks again for the lovely review. to me personally, this italian place really works for me. =)
Hi inyk,
Firstly I just wanna wish you a happy belated bd - I am glad you enjoyed yourself at Pietrasanta.
I have since been back during mother's day and I have tried both the ravioli and lamb racks. I fell absolutely in love with the ravioli, and as for the lamb racks, they are good but tend to be slightly more on the salty side.
Having said that, I will be organising a dinner there with my fellow foodies on the 30th May (Friday) and if you are interested, you are welcome to join us. :)
e food seemed really gd cuz is always full house there..i worked part time there but yet to try e food..next time shall try it out..whaha
If it's proper tiramisu, it should be all marscapone cheese and zero cream. They only use cream coz..it's cheaper. Bleah.
