| Singapore is a city which has become one of the world's great food destinations. Chefs from the world over come to test their skills against the host of competitors and this has created a fine dining milieu which is nothing less than a veritable paradise for those who appreciate tasty morsels of every variety. Sitting amongst some of Singapore's best fine dining establishments is Al Dente Trattoria. |
| The chefs at Al Dente Trattoria have elevated regional Italian cuisine to an art form, and, with touch of contemporary culinary wizardry, have firmly put paid to the notion that Italian food need be anything but delightful, surprising, and perfectly balanced at every mouthful. As all enthusiastic restaurant goers know, the quality of the food and the vision of the kitchen is of primary importance, but no matter how delectable and enticing the dishes are, there are many sides to a dining experience and each one contributes to the sense of a magical occasion. |

| It is no accident that Al Dente Trattoria has become the preferred choice for those hoping to make a special occasion of their meal, be it an occasion requiring the romance of authentic Italian regional cooking, or the pinpoint service and dining bonhomie of an establishment which takes pride in being the best at everything. Al Dente Trattoria on the Esplanade offers two floors for hungry diners to choose from. |
The first boasts a warm indoor ambiance, and also has some al fresco tables, but those who want nothing less than one of the finest views of Singapore's spectacular Esplanade and cityscape will undoubtedly book at table on the rooftop terrace. This is panoramic fine dining at its most nourishing, in every way.
Once you find yourself seated, perhaps with a tempting cocktail to invite in the marvellous sunset, you'll have a chance to peruse the inspired menu. Dishes have all been created using the finest, most authentic ingredients.
Where a traditional regional dish requires an ingredient from that region in Italy, you can rest assured that the kitchen at Al Dente Trattoria has brought it in especially for the culinary delight of its many satisfied gourmets.
You can expect the magic of Buffalo Mozzarella from Campania, Beans from Veneto and just about every rare and delicate morsel which goes into a dish to have arrived fresh into the kitchen from a specialist Italian supplier.
All gourmets who know their regional Italian cookery will know that dishes vary considerably from one area to another, if not from one town to the next. Whether you prefer to indulge your palate with the nourishing, hearty flavours of rustic Italy or prefer to savour the meticulously and more sophisticated cuisine of the country's aristocratic kitchens, you'll find that the inspired creations of Al Dente Trattoria derive from all over the country. |  |
| There is something for every whim of the taste-buds, from the traditional Antipasti specialities like the Parmigiana di Melanzana, to perfectly crisped wood-fired pizzas and mains like the magnificent Sicilian-inspired Spigola Con Sale Marino, which is a fresh whole sea bass prepared to salty perfection in a crust of the finest sea salt and served with a spicy tomato coulis and a Sicilian tomato salad. |
| And don't forget to think carefully about your dessert, whether you're a traditional Tiramisu lover or prefer something unexpected and more in keeping with cosmopolitan Rome like the Affogato, a liberal dousing of espresso over something delightful, it's there for the taking. |
| Complementing every mouthful of your meal will be one or more glasses from the exceptional wine list. A list which takes from the New World and the Old, it is as inspired as the food and has been designed to work with the rich variety of flavours you can expect in abundance at Al Dente Trattoria. |
