I knew that Pici is famous for their homemade authentic pasta, as a pasta lover I was very excited to try out dishes from this restaurant. I went on a weekday for lunch and arrived at around 12. At the time the restaurant was not full and we were led to a table close to the open kitchen, ,where we could see the chefs cooking and making pasta! Lunch sets were offered at 3 different prices: $98, $128 and $148 The $98 set is a 2-course set where you could choose between appetiser + main course and
I went on a weekday for lunch and arrived at around 12. At the time the restaurant was not full and we were led to a table close to the open kitchen, ,where we could see the chefs cooking and making pasta!
Lunch sets were offered at 3 different prices: $98, $128 and $148
The $98 set is a 2-course set where you could choose between appetiser + main course and main course + dessert. The remaining two sets are 3-course meals.
I ordered the $148 set, with burrata cheese (+$10) , truffle tagliolini (+$28) and tiramisu.
The burrata was bomb! There wasn't much seasoning but some extra virgin olive oil, salt and black pepper lying on a bed of fresh rockets. The cheese had a texture of mozzarella outside and melt-in-the-mouth inside. The cheese did not have a strong tangy flavour but tasted mild, light and creamy, which complimented well with the strong flavours from the rocket salad. The $10 add on for the burrata was such a bargain as they offered a full portion of the cheese and the original price was actually $95 for one.

Next up was the tagliolini with shaved black truffle, white truffle paste and shallots. I was surprised by the amount of freshly shaved black truffle on the pasta, it was generous! However I had to say that I was disappointed with the soft, close-to-none aroma from the black truffles, as I was expecting a strong scent of black truffles. With this price though, I did not expect high quality black truffles to be offered. The pasta was spot-on al dente, with a creamy white truffle sauce wrapping each and every tagliotini, I was satisfied.

Towards to end of the meal came the tiramisu, when I was already full (I forgot to take a photo). Yet the portion of the tiramisu was HUGE! Just the same portion as if you ordered a la carte, which was again generous, but I was too full that I could not finish the whole dessert. The tiramisu itself was SO GOOD though, it was prepared like the traditional recipe with egg yolks, mascarpone etc. The creamy custard balanced out the alcohol espresso lady fingers so well and the layer of sugar on top added a nice crunch to the dessert. (Rating: 9/10)
I would definitely be back for this well worth authentic Italian food.
