Pete’s Place

Opening this month along with the grand return of Grand Hyatt Singapore, Pete’s Place has been an Italian favourite amongst local palates—for over 50 years. And dare we say, it’s back and better than ever. Helmed by newly appointed chef Salvatore Giorgio Catania, this cosy trattoria offers quintessential Italian dishes made using culinary techniques from Northern and Southern Italy. Be prepared to feast on scrumptious starters like vitello tonnato, as well as a selection of seasonal cured meat like parma ham, napoli salami, and copa, which are best enjoyed with gnocco fritto.

Save space for the showstopping mains though. The costoletta alla milanese, a large breaded tender fried veal cutlet, a communal dish often seen on the table at Italian degustations, is a must-try as it’s made extra tasty by shallow frying in butter. Its refreshing return also includes a highly personalised off-menu experience at the specially designed chef’s table.
