Assaggio Trattoria Italiana Wanchai (Hong Kong, CHINA) ★★★☆☆

We were supposed to be going to Kasa for lunch today but what we didn't realize was the fact that they have changed to more of a take-away joint these days with very limited dine-in options. So, we had to take our business elsewhere. Preferably somewhere nearby.



Assaggio Trattoria Italiana is a close enough option at the Hong Kong Arts Centre. We got there in just a couple of minutes.



Spaghetti carbonara ($128) - I wasn't particularly hungry today so instead of having the antipasti buffet and a pasta, meat or pizza, I opted for a simple bowl of pasta. This was noticeably smaller in size but still every bit as good as it was. The homemade spaghetti was full of bite with just the right amount of cream sauce although I certainly didn't mind a bit more pancetta and shaved parmesan. 



Assaggio tiramisu ($48) - They always have one of my favorite tiramisu in the city although I have noticed that the size has also shrunk a little like my previous pasta dish (but cheaper).



Very creamy with that nice and soft texture. My recent favorite is the one from Pici but this one sure isn't too far behind.
