Another long day ended without lunch and really long walking, and because it's either we eat at Tower Hills or back home at Stanmore (and my hubby wasn't really confident eating outside his comfort zone), we decided to eat somewhere closer to home, which is at Prezzo
 |
| Location: Within Stanmore, across the street from...the local nursery, I guess? :/ |
 |
| Setting: A really nice feel to it, almost Italian in a sense, but still with the London flair in between, though they really need to crank up the air-conditioning a little bit |
 |
| Random shots of trinkets around us |
The waitresses there were really perky and helpful, especially this one named Anne, who has a bit of a thick Italian accent and her voice was prolly a few octaves higher than most, which makes her sound kinda cute, LOL!
 |
| We has Appletiser in London!! Since this drink is being banned in Brunei for no apparent reason, we savor the chance to drink this super rare drink |
 |
| My hubby's starters, which is garlic bread with cheese |
 |
| My starters of calamari |
My hubby's garlic bread was pretty chewy, in a good way. It's almost like eating pizza actually, not the usual garlic bread we would always eat. My calamari was not so bad either, nice and Q, pretty chewy, though I was expecting a bit of a crunchy batter, but it's good. Still good
 |
| My hubby's spaghetti and meatballs |
 |
| My spaghetti with King prawns |
Thank goodness we ordered the classic portion because it was really huge for a normal-sized meal, as usual. My hubby's spaghetti and meatballs was amazing. The meatballs were really juicy inside, unlike the meatballs done in Brunei where it's either too dry or too soggy.
My King prawns spaghetti came out interestingly without the shells. I was actually expecting it to be spaghetti then served with King prawns in its shell. Still it was really delicious. The spaghetti was cooked to perfection and the sauce is very flavorful, and the prawns, oh my god, the prawns were so fresh and juicy, you can literally feel the crunch when you bite into it. It was THAT fresh! And best of all, it had a very good helping of chopped spring onions in it, and it was amazing!
The perky waitress asked if we want dessert, and it wouldn't be nice to say no, or end it with just that, so we ordered just one dessert to share amongst ourselves, just in case they came with a crazy-ass portion again.

| Our hot fudge chocolate cake with vanilla ice-cream |
Omilord, the cake was just amazing! So fudgy, so chocolatey! It was amazing! Packed full of flavour and they both go really well, the thick fudge chocolate with the vanilla ice-cream. It tastes even better than chocolate lava pudding with ice-cream. It was THAT amazing. Loved every bite of it, even though I ended up super-stuffed.
All in all, the best Italian food I've eaten so far, the best pasta ever!

9.5/10
