modesto's

my parents love modesto's. and somehow, i've been converted to a fan too. having tried the 3 different outlets at Orchard Parade Hotel, The Elizabeth and Vivocity, here's what i concluded.
Orchard Parade Hotel - i think they serve the best food out of the 3 outlets. maybe cos it's the place where i've tried the most things on the menu. still, i like the cosy feeling on the inside although most of the customers there prefer al fresco dining.
The Elizabeth - the decor and ambience here gives sort of a royal feeling. i guess being located away from the hustle and bustle of the city gives a sense of exclusivity. food was so-so...didnt remember it being fantastic.
Vivocity - this was our latest try! and i really enjoyed it! we went there only for pizza, because my food partner was craving for pizza after months of dieting. oh and the scenery from the restaurant is fantastic! overlooks the sea and you can get a glimpse of Sentosa, the boats and liners and the cable cars!

appetizer - freshly toasted focaccia bread with balsamic vinegar and olive oil. i'm always game for some of these! they actually served 6 pieces for the both of us but we were too excited that we forgot to take a photo until we ate 3 pieces. so that's why there are only 3 pieces left in the basket!
our main courses were 2 regular sized (12 inches) wood-fired oven pizzas! ordered one with beef bolognaise and the other one with chicken sausage. my first piece was the chicken sausage and i thought it was great. and then i tried the beef and that was twice better! can't believe we actually finished 2 pizzas without much difficulty...guess that's what happens when you're deprived of comfort food for awhile :)
