Bruno's Pizzeria & Grill: good italian food in the east

Bruno's came highly recommended by my friend from school so my best friend and I came by for lunch on a Saturday afternoon a while back. As we came by pretty early, the restaurant was vacant and the staff were hugely attentive.

I ordered Vongole with White Wine and when the dish was served, I was delighted. I could barely make out the spaghetti underneath the mountain of clams! The serving of clams was definitely generous which made the price of the Vongole easier to stomach. I don't remember the exact price but I think it was closer to $20.

It was delicious. The spaghetti was done al dente yet it soaked up the white wine sauce sufficiently. There was a generous amount of white wine sauce as seen in the picture above and the sauce provided adequate flavour to both the spaghetti and the clams. The clams were juicy and most of the clams had flesh within. I've eaten Vongole at certain places which, for some queer reasons, came with mostly clam shells without the flesh within. The serving was huge and I was extremely full after my lunch at Bruno's.

With the whole stretch of cafes popping up along Tanjong Katong Road, Bruno's faces stiff competition. It is definitely pricier than Big Bad Wolf down the street but for the quality of food served, I think it will definitely attract a crowd willing to pay for delicious italian food.

To get to Bruno's, you can take a bus and alight after the petrol station, in front of a student hostel. Cross the overhead bridge and continue walking down and you will Bruno's.
