Usually packed to the brim with corporate clients — it is located at the heart of the city, after all — Zafferano is a firm favourite for leisurely business lunches, with its 43rd-floor view of the Marina Waterfront and masterful Italian cooking.
If the marvellous view of Marina Bay from the 43rd floor of Ocean Financial Centre, where Zafferano resides, does not take your breath away, then the food certainly will. In the hands of young Head Chef Andrea De Paola, familiar ingredients are given a new spin, yet rooted in traditions from his hometown of Naples in Italy.
If I were to choose one type of cuisine I’d like to eat forever, it would probably be Italian. There is something about Italian cuisine that revels in deep flavours and fine ingredients; it is varied and complex, traditional yet versatile. So, when I was given the opportunity to dine at one of Singapore’s more wellknown Italian restaurants, Zafferano, I was delighted.
