Can you believe it’s been three years since Jamie’s Italian debuted its first Singapore outlet in VivoCity and attracted long queues filled with curious customers? Damn, time flies. Jamie Oliver’s restaurant chain recently expanded to Forum Shopping Mall along Orchard Road, and even then, it’s been a year.
So in honour of their joint anniversary, both branches are offering a three-item anniversary menu created just for Singapore. First up, the Venetian duck pasta ($25.50) — a traditional ragû of slow-cooked duck leg with red wine and seasonal veggies, sprinkled with herb-infused breadcrumbs and parmesan.
Next is a dish crafted by the Singapore outlet’s culinary team: A lovely serving of ravioli stuffed with tender pork belly, pancetta and ricotta ($24.50), served with vegetable ragû and salsa verde. Last but not least, our favourite dish of 24-hour braised beef short rib ($46.50) nestled on creamy polenta, surrounded by balsamic beetroots and parsley gremolata.
As for how you can enjoy a year’s worth of free meals, get a stamp-collecting card from the restaurant and claim all six stamps (for a cocktail or mocktail, an antipasti dish, a pizza, a pasta, a main and a dessert) to stand a chance. The winner will get 52 meal vouchers to be used every week throughout the year. But each one is only valued at $30, and looking at the prices on the menu, you’ll either be eating alone a lot or having to fork out more money to pay for a meal with friends.
Anniversary menu dishes and the lucky draw contest will go on from now till Jul 31 at Jamie’s Italian VivoCity and Forum.
