We were seated close to the dessert counter which was adjacent to the other entrance of the restaurant that opened onto the harbour waterfront. We could see tourists coming in through that door for ice cream or food. 
The menu we chose was one of restaurant week special offers, $288 plus 10% service charge (per person). We decided to share our food so each of us could taste more dishes on the menu. The waitress knowing we wanted to share our foods was prompt to provide extra plates for us which was good. 
Burrata Cheese, Datterino Tomatoes
24 Months Parma Ham "Cantalupo" Melon - whilst the melon was sweet and juicy, the ham unfortunately lacked the umami flavour. 
Stewed Beef Tripe, San Marzano Tomato Sauce, Pecorino Cheese, White Beans, Guanciale- apparently Trippa Alla Romana is an ancient recipe in Italy being food of the lower class like the peasants in the olden days- offals are one of the the more affordable proteins. Surely, time has changed and this is now a popular dish in Rome and in some parts of Italy too. The tripe in this instance was served piping hot in a little brown pot. The cooking of the tripe was just right and they were not tough, though personally, I would prefer a little bit more tomato and some spice to lift the dish a bit more. 
Mezze Maniche Pasta "Benedetto Cavalieri" Tomato Sauce, Vodka, Spicy "Nduja Sauage Parmesan Cheese - the grooves of the mezze maniche pasta helped to sucked up the goodness of the nduja ('Nduja is a soft, spreadable fermented pork salume, spiked with fiery Calabrian chiles) sauce which flavour was rounded up nicely by the cheesy Parmesan. There was just a hint of spice ( not that fiery) and the pasta was cooked al dente, quite flavourful. 
As for our Dolci course, each of us chose two mini pastries from the Vitrine - there was such a big selection that we were certainly spoiled for choice. After much battling 😆， we chose the following:

The food quality is pretty good with lovely environment even our table is in the middle, so there’re many ppl crossing around, honestly a bit annoying, but i like the whole setting in Bluhouse, it’s beautiful, grand, and relaxing environment, with a bit of romantic feeling, but sad didn’t try the dessert this time crycry
