Winterlicious Lunch at Kit Kat Italian Bar&Grill

January 31st, 2007

The list of restaurants that are participating in this year’s Winterlicious is really long, so I started by checking out the menus of Italian restaurants (coz I love Italian food) and those that had catchy names.

Kit Kat Italian Bar & Grill is one of my choices. One reason is that they have Risotto on their Winterlicious menu. It is one of my favourite dishes, but not many Italian restaurants offer Risotto…… so this makes it more precious to me. Moreover, their risotto comes with smoked chicken, portobello mushrooms, asparagus, sundried tomatoes and fresh herbs…. unlike others that come with seafood (I’m not a big fan of seafood) or simply mushroom, which I find a bit boring.

So how did it turn out? Really good! The taste is excellent, but the whole dish would be perfect if all the rice was fully cooked.

Chap picked “Mussels with tomato, wine & garlic” instead of risotto. He liked the sauce, but he was a bit disappointed that the mussels were a bit undercooked. We were not sure if that was done on purpose as many people liked eating raw mussels.

Anyway, the whole experience was wonderful: quality “Soup of the Day” and the desert was not bad — though not very impressive. It is definitely a restaurant I would recommend.

P.S. Note that their main menu doesn’t have risotto, so hurry up! This year’s Winterlicious ends on February 8, 2007.
