Amazing Wood Fired Pizza @ Alessio, Solaris Dutamas



Publika, never fall short of eateries. My latest discovery with my foodies pals bring me to Alessio which offer a good variety of Italian & Fusion foods. Today, I'll be featuring their latest new offerings.

The interior are brightly lit and cosy with selection of wine available.


Starters
Paradiso RM19.00
Fruit cocktail salad served with fresh coconut water.
Refreshing fruits salad, a tad sourish... but you could just tame it down with the fresh coconut water.
Lava Grilled Black Pepper Lamb Kebabs RM15.00
Must try! I love how the lamb done just right, so juicy. Capsicum not my kind of vegetable usually, surprisingly grilled capsicum palatable to me.


Mains
Alessio’s pasta specials in-house made sauces.
Twin Duck Spaghetti RM27.00
With crispy bacon, duck confit, sundried tomato, olives & fresh orange
Must try! Truly enjoyed the crispy bacon with al dente pasta. Generous portion, so ladies might wanna share this instead. 


Live Fire Sourdough Crust Pizza  -  Hand Tossed  (9 slices each, 18 inch)
Spicy Chicken Pizza RM25.00
Ohhh.. I love the pizza crust here. So light and crispy, perfect for those on low-carb diet. The toppings are great and flavourful, however I would prefer it a little more generous with cheese though.



Pizza Trio – Best of 3 worlds (Pepperoni pizza, Hawaiian Pizza & Wild Mushroom) RM33.00
Must try!


Duo Salmon RM29.00
Charocoal grilled salmon done 2 ways in miso butter and teriyaki sauce served with crispy golden enoki and customer choice of garlic egg fried rice or kampong ikan bilis fried rice.
Brilliant fragrant fried rice served with 2 generous slices of salmon. I find the salmon slight overcooked and dries out. You would definitely enjoy the crispy fried golden enoki. So addictive....


Coconut Island King RM28.00 
XL King prawn saute in curry leaves and salted egg surrounded in dreamy coconut sauce infused with birds eye chillis served with crispy Vienna milk bun.
Fresh and succulent prawn, you'll love it's creamy and flavourful sauce, not too spicy at all.

Tuscan Lamb Shank RM49.00
Tender slow roasted lamb shank in Tuscan ratatouille served with creamy mashed potatoes.




Basmati Nasi Lemak Muhibbah
House special Nasi Lemak Muhibbah! RM28.00
Served with ayam goreng berempah, butter tiger prawn and kari ikan tenggiri.
Again, huge portion! You got the chicken, prawn and even fish on top of the usual Nasi Lemak condiments. Still I find using Basmathi for Nasi Lemak might be a little too adventurous.



Twin Naked Lobster Thermidor RM168.00
Truly delectable house fresh lobster made 2 ways  in cheesy termidor sauce encrusted in molten 3 cheese & naked at its best grilled with French butter.
Succulent and bouncy texture done in 2 ways, my preferences will be the molten 3 cheese rich flavour.  Naked is rather plain. 

Desserts! Creme brulee with serving of fruits.

First row - Tropical Paradise RM13.90
Mango, Pineapple, Orange, Lychee, Longan & Grenadine.
I had the Tropical Paradise and find it a tad sweet to my liking.

Middle row - Italian Passion RM11.90
Passion fruit, Lychee, Jasmine Tea, Fresh Mint Leaf.

Last row - Alessio's Special Mocktail Marilyn Monroe RM9.90
Orange, Mango, Longan, Fresh Mint Leaf.


Thanks for having me, Dr Sidney.

Now, who hold it better? Hehe...

My verdict : Generous portion at an affordable price. Must try the amazing sour dough wood fire pizza!!!

OKONOMI - WHAT'S YOUR ROLL? @ SOLARIS DUTAMAS


Okonomi at Solaris Dutamas is Malaysia 1st 'custom sushi' restaurant. Such a kawaii name, don't you agree? OKONOMI literally means "to one's liking" Yeah... We can create our own customized sushi with over 80 types of ingredients according to our preferences.

 
So what's your pick?

You can opt for up to 5 fillings. There's even brown rice and soy wrap other than usual white rice and seaweed. This is definitely good news for those on diet or healthy eaters.

Worth mentioning are their sauces & dressings are homemade.

Matcha latte RM12.90 
Azuki Float RM12.90
With just the right sweetness, this is pretty addictive. Even their ice cream is made from scratch too!

Executive Chef Alex Lau hard at work.

The Health Nut RM15.90 
Urumaki, soy wrap, brown rice, salmon, japanese cucumber, crispy coral lettuce, green onion, sesame sauce
This is pretty much balance in taste. Light and tasty.

The Seafood Supreme RM26.90
Urumaki, seaweed wrap, white rice, soft shell crab, Hokkaido crab meat, salmon, cucumber, cereal, yukke sauce
A tad salty to my liking, however this plate of sushi is really pretty and generous of seafood filling.

Crab Korokke RM9.90
Gently breaded crab meat deep fried with  poached butter and cream sauce.
IMO, this is a little too mushy. The crab meat taste is strong though.

Finally.......... Ta dah............
My customized sushi. It may not look pretty but it taste marvelous ok!!! 😍


Brown rice with soy wrap, fillings includes avocado, wakame, salmon, Hokkaido crab meat & mixed mushroom. Served with homemade citrus salad dressing for a kick. Healthier version of sushi and taste so good! I named it "Fit sushi" RM19.90
Do try out my combination if you there, ok! 

Matcha Lava Cake RM16.90
Be prepared to wait at least 15min as this is baked fresh upon order. 
Generous matcha filling oozing out pipping hot, however it's overly sweet for me. Still, it looks pretty presentable!
Fortune Yee Sang is available too for this festive season. Do try it out!
RM38 for 2-3 person
RM68 for 5-8 person 

Let me end this with my #ootd at the front entrance of Okonomi.

My verdict 
Foods : 9/10
Price : 8/10
Ambiance : 8/10
