Tipo Gnocchi - Halal Restaurant Specialising in Italian Dumpling

It has been more than half a year since I last met up with Mariem and our meetup is long overdue. Mariem suggested we try out Tipo Gnocchi, a new concept store by the Tipo group. I remembered loving the handmade pasta at Tipo Strada so I believe I will be in good hands at the new Tipo Gnocchi.

Gnocchi is a type of Italian dumpling. They are made of small lumps of dough most traditionally made of wheat flour, egg, salt, and potato.

Location

Tipo Gnocchi is located around 10-minute walking distance from  the Sultan Mosque in Kamping Glam. The restaurant is within walking distance from Jalan Besar, Rocher, Bugis and Nicole Highway MRT stations.

Buses 7, 32, 51, 61, 63, 80, 145, 175 and 197 stop at the nearest bus stop.

Decoration

Tipo Gnocchi - Interior

The restaurant is classy with shades of grey walls in contrast to wooden tables and black chairs. The minimalistic decor gives the place a touch of elegance.

There is a seating capacity of around 30 and it's quite a popular restaurant so reservation is highly-recommended to avoid disappointment.

The Food

Tipo Gnocchi - Menu

The menu is simple with just a few options which makes it easier for people who have trouble deciding.

Tipo Gnocchi - Iced Tea

We were going to order White Grape [S$9] and Melon [S$9] mocktails but they ran out of mocktails so we had to settle for this Iced Tea.

Tipo Gnocchi - Calamari

This is probably the most crumbly Calamari [S$18] that I have ever had. The crispy batter falls right off the moment I took a bite. The cuttlefish inside is tender but I would have like it more with the crispy outer layer.

Tipo Gnocchi - Pear Salad

I like that they pre-mixed the dressing with the greens and add on the pear slices on top in the Pear Salad [S$10]. This allows us to eat the salad like graceful ladies without having to toss the salad ourselves.

Tipo Gnocchi - Seafood Kombu

Seafood Kombu [S$28] is one of the most popular gnocchi house specials, I saw it all over Instagram. This is unlike the creamy pastas I am used to, it has a certain Japanese-feel to it. The yuzu kosho clam broth is light on the palate with a slight yuzu fragrance. The handmade gnocchi comes with kombu, wakame and clams which gives the dish sweetness of the sea.

Tipo Gnocchi - Duck Ragu

The duck ragu used in Duck Ragu [S$24] is braised overnight which explains why it is so well-marinated. The handmade gnocchi are served with sautéed swiss brown mushrooms, topped with grated grana padano and parsley which gives the dish more depth.

Tipo Gnocchi - Hazelnut Praline Tiramisu

We wanted to try both desserts but they only had Hazelnut Praline Tiramisu [S$13] and we were so glad we ordered that. I can hardly taste the espresso and the rest of the tiramisu hit all the right notes of sweetness and creaminess. The portion is pretty big, one serving was just nice for 2 person to share.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
