Lunch @ Assaggio Trattoria Italiana

Previously tried this place in the evening and the service was not that good.

Tried it again for lunch and the restaurant was full of people, they seemed to be short staffed hence service was slow.

Although the service was slow, they had knowledge about the food and were able to explain what food it was instead of reading back the dish name when asked.

Ordered the soup for starters and the artichoke risotto for the mains.

Both the food and drinks took ages to arrive and requesting for the bill proved to be a patient task because all the waitors were busy.

Anyway, the soup was basically clear chicken broth with pieces of liver and a few strands of thin tagliatelle.
The pasta was freshly made hence it was very chewy.

The risotto was my favourite, it was very refreshing because it was slightly sour.
However the portions could have been bigger.

Artichoke risotto

The experience dining there was purely an eating experience because the people dining there were so loud that you cannot have a normal conversation.
