Ferdinand Arie Squid ink pasta
The standouts were the octopus and squid ink pasta. These two dishes have been veritably done to death in the casual dining scene, and it takes something special to have them again and to remark that they are not just Ok, but superb.

The potato clusters were not just an accompaniment, and I would order this by itself as a side dish as it was rendered so perfectly - crunchy on the outside and fluffy inside.
