Nestled in an elegant and cosy setting along Duxton Hill, Etna serves up modern Italian cuisine with a Sicilian touch. Dining here is almost like dining in a good friend’s living room — the intimate 40-seater is warmly lit, and has a homely vibe to it. For appetisers, the Parmigiania de Melanzane is a good way to whet the appetite, with its baked eggplants layered with mozzarella cheese and fresh basil. The meaty aubergines are soft, bathed in a sweet tomato sauce perfect for dipping into with some focaccia bread.

Pastas here are simple yet delicious. A popular dish is the lobster ravioli, with butter pistachio cream and prawns, as well as the carbonara, which comes with a dollop of caviar and mullet roe, generously sprinkled with a crack of fresh black pepper. Etna’s specialty is the housemade pizzas, with a crispy base that supports fresh ingredients like mushrooms, artichokes and mixed seafood.

For dessert, the classics don’t disappoint. Get the tiramisu, and pair the creamy layered treat with a scoop of gelato to end the meal on a sweet note. (Aug 2018)
