It has been almost half a year since I last visited Covelli, so I decided to drop by again to make use of the 50% offer.

| Baby Spinach Salad, $16 |
Sauteed tiger prawns in garlic-devon sauce, served on a bed of baby spinach. The tiger prawns were really fresh and crunchy, but I have one gripe - why so stingy with the baby spinach? I could count the number of leaves they used for this dish! Naming it 'Tiger prawns with baby spinach' would certainly be more apt. I wouldn't mind sacrificing one prawn for more leaves...

| Quarantaotto, $32 |
I have conflicting feelings for this dish. My parents came before and said that their beef short ribs were unbelievably good, but when I ordered it, it was disappointing, being dry and a bit tough. I am glad I gave it another chance - today's was really fantastic. Their beef short ribs were supposedly braised for 24 hours, and what you get is an extremely tender short ribs that practically melted in your mouth.

| Kurobuta Pork Belly, $28 |
Definitely not a dish for the health conscious. For normal pork belly, it is quite easy to separate the fat away from the meat, but for this, it was almost impossible. Not that I am complaining, actually - their fat was delicious and chewy, and didn't taste like the 'oily' type of fats. According to the menu, the pork belly was spiced with chocolate, but I couldn't taste the chocolate at all.
