First among the mains that we sampled was the dish of Mussels with Ravioli. Prepared in a bright homemade tomato sauce with hint of white wine and seafood flavor, the dish which isn’t on the menu was simple but delicious.

The dish was followed by the Ocean Treasures, which had baked crab in creamy mushroom sauce. The dish was a pleasure coupled with the accompanying plate of garden salad.

Mains kept coming and there was the smoke duck in apricot orange saffron sauce. Served on a bed of creamy crabmeat caviar pasta, the dish with its big flavor and lovely touch of saffron induced an enjoyable surprise for us.

The last main was the Seafood Spicy Olio, with familiar characteristic ingredients of olive oil, garlic, herbs, chillies, and black olives, besides NZ mussels, calamari, and prawns.

The dessert menu offers a couple of Annabelle’s creations – Lilikoi (passion fruit) Cheesecake and the Carrot Walnut Cake topped with a rich layer of cream cheese frosting.

Highly recommended would be the classic Italian desserts of Tiramisu. Made with mascarpone cheese, espresso infused savoiardi finger biscuit, alcohol, and laced with a good amount of cocoa powder, the creamy dessert was the table’s favorite.
