Lunch @ Aria Traditional Italian Dining & Whisky Bar, Damansara

Somehow, we've manage to obtain a great deal from Dealmates again. This time, it is 'an Italian Feast for 2 Persons (Antipasto de la Casa + Aglio e Olio Smoked Duck + Polpette di Agnello) Worth RM124 for Only RM59'. However, we made a good decision by sharing it with 3 persons. The portion was so huge!

Sadly, we couldn't take any picture of interior as people and waiters were bustling about here and there, making it difficult for us to get a good shot. However, the interior sets off a nice ambience that is slightly dim in lighting that makes it perfect for dates. It also has a 2nd floor which people can have a larger group upstairs for celebration. The service there could be better but I'll forgive that since it was lunch time and there was so many customers that 2-3 waiters could handle.

Alrighty, on with the food!

Antipasto de la Casa @ RM68
Salmon Carpaccio di Salmone (Smoked Salmon Slices drizzled with sauce dressing), Carpaccio di Manzo  (Beef slices drizzled with sauce dressing) , Arancini Risotto, Marinated Mushroom, Mixed Grill Vege, Artichoke, Calamari & Zucchini Fritti

This appetizer platter is really huge. It can be shared between 3-4 people. There are a variety of snacks there and all are really delicious. For those that can't eat beef, you should request the waiters to change the beef carpaccio to salmon carpaccio for you.

Palpetto di Agnello @ RM28

Basically, it is fettucine pasta and lamb meatballs in pomodoro sauce. The lamb meatball is a little bit dry and hard to eat but the sauce is really flavorful and the pasta is really smooth and easy to eat.

Aglio e Olio Smoked Duck @ RM28

This dish contains of pepperoncino, smoked duck, cherry tomatoes, kalamata, sundried tomatoes, aragula and sauteed garlic. All this ingredients go together really well. The smoked duck was not overcooked and still very juicy when you bite into it. The pasta was cooked to perfection and it taste really well when drizzled with some olive oil and herbs. I strongly recommend this pasta. It's really worth the money and tastes delicious.
