went with a friend to Sketches Pasta and Wine Bar at bugis for some better quality pasta den pastamania. the 1 thing that is unique abt Sketches, is dat they have this design-your-own-pasta thing, where they give u various choices of sizes, pasta type, sauces, toppings, additions, etc. all u have to do is tick the choices u wan, and voila! u get ur own personal pasta! so since we went all the way there, of coz muz try it right? so both of us designed our own pasta which, as u can see from the pics, look prety much alike. lol. mine was a tri-coloured fusilli with marinara sauce and topped with chicken, ham, mushrooms, carrots and baby clams (top pic). hers was a spaghetti with marinara sauce too and topped with chicken, mushrooms, baby clams, garlic and sumting else (2nd pic). we both agreed that the sauce wasnt too watery and pretty dense, which is pretty fine with us. they were not very stingy with the ingredients, but prob coz the portion ain't very big anyway. the squids in the marinara sauce were not too rubbery or hard, and the prawns were pretty fresh too. and another gd thing abt this place is dat if u ask for ice water, they will give u a whole jug of it without extra charge! but i guess its becoz u have to pay service tax, gst and prevailing government taxes too. well, all these for $10.50+++ per person. pretty reasonable for small-medium eaters, coz portions ain't very big. the bigger size one is $11.90+++ i tink.
