Great food and good wine at the new Gotti Italian restaurant in Singapore, Singapore

 


Gotti restaurant mural puts you in the mood for good wine, good food and good company.

I went to a set meal where the wines and food were matched, starting with Prosecco at Gotti restaurant in Singapore.

From the nearby MRT underground railway station was a short pleasant walk along Amoy Alley which has a large mural.

Amoy Street
Amoy Alley to Amoy street full of intriguing restaurants. One restaurant  has a Michelin star, probably pricey.

Despite all the other alternatives and distractions we were immediately impressed by the atmosphere of the relatively new, open about three months, Gotti restaurant.

Table Lamps
The table lamps are touch sensitive with two standards of light or shade. It is fun, but if you reach for something and hit the light you and your plate are plunged into darkness! 

Seating
The layout offers a choice of seating. Just incise the entrance door is a bar with illuminated alcoves.

Beyond the bar are big table for three or four with banquettes and smaller tables for two with one person on the banquette and another on the upright chair, and in the middle of the room, tables for two, with lower armchairs, which offers cosiness, as well as not blocking the line of sight to the large jolly coloured mural at the end of the room.

The mural
The mural is modern style. 

Toilets
Beyond it are the modern toilets with playing card themes.



Prosecco
We started with a glass of Prosecco. And warm bread with oil, Italian style. I asked for butter, and got it.

The first course was flavoursome and a surprise. Bread topped with teeny cubes of tomato, smaller than my smallest fingernail, like juliennes cut in both directions.

The surname Gotti could be derived from Gothic or army ruler.  The restaurant is named after  famous American mob boss John Gotti, made famous in a film of the same name.
