This blog is mainly written by me, IcedNyior, but occasionally, I get the beau to write the posts. So this will be tagged “He Eats”. Hehe…enjoy!

So after having a problem on where to eat, we decide to go to Italiannies at The Gardens. As its name, it is an Italian theme restaurant that serve Italian food (duh >.<). They have an “open air” style seating outside the restaurant and plenty of seats inside.

The restaurant setting is (as quoted from my girl) nice, romantic and high class. Oh and quiet too, nice place to have a romantic dinner but be sure to ask table further away from their kitchen.

Anyway after we seated, complimentary bread with olive oil plus balsamic vinegar was served. The bread was nice, seems that they baked it fresh daily. Was asking my girl whether do we have pay for it or not if we decide not to eat there XD

Anyway after browsing thru the menu, we decided to get:

1. For appetizer we ordered a Quattro Platter (RM25.90) – mix of fried risotto, fried zucchini, fried cheese balls and fried squid with cheese and tomato dips. For me the zucchini and squid is nice, the cheese a bit funny and the risotto is out. As for the dipping, tomato dip is rather nice compare to cheese dip.

2. For entrée we ordered Shrimp Fra Diablo (RM32.90) – fettuccini with red sauce with a lot of shrimps in it. Nice taste, but not spicy enough (yes they do served it with chili flakes but the taste don’t go together).

3. And Bianco Pizza (RM37.90) – a 12” pizza with got pepperoni,minced beef and chunks of chicken with no vege at all. As a carnivore, I find that the topping is not that satisfying (or should I said not as advertised in the menu >.<)

4. For dessert, we order Chocolate Hazelnut Cake (RM11.90) – 2 slices of brownies if you ask me. Kind of a bit too hard to be called a cake. The nicest thing about the cake is it is served with hazelnut.

5. For drinks I ordered a bottomless of Pepsi Max (RM6.80) while my girl order a Ripe Mango Shake (RM8.50) and Earl Grey Tangerine Tea (RM5.80).

All and all, it was a good place to hangout but be sure to sit away from the kitchen. Foods was so so and pricy. So I would recommend the place for the place itself but not the food >.<.
