Porchetta di Maiale & Orecchiette Pancetta Alfredo~ Osteria Emilia, 163 Retail Park

Saw the place under renovation and opened for business in May when I hang around in 163 Retail Park. A friend keen to try so we meet here for a dinner date on Tuesday after work. After check, I find out that Osteria Emilia is Proof that we previously went twice or thrice in the past. Now that explains why Proof in Arcoris closed down out of sudden. I think the review on food is vary by food and individual preference. Google reviews shows they have 4.5 stars. But we find our dinner just so so. We share a Porchetta di Maiale~ crackling skinned pork roast rolled with Italian herbs and spices, roasted rosemary potatoes, serve with thyme jus; and a Orecchiette Pancetta Alfredo~ Orecchiette Pasta in creamy cheese sauce, a piece of pancetta, leeks & parmesan. The roast pork skin is not crisp and it's a bit chewy. Pasta is average. Guess they are good in fire wood Pizza like what we used to have in Proof as most of the reviews are compliment on their pizza than the mains.
