PocoLoco

Located behind pioneering Ang Mo Kio mookata outfit Siam Square Mookata, PocoLoco offers premium Italian cuisine at prices that would make downtown Singapore Italian restaurants blush like a sun-ripened tomato. The idea is simple, dispense with the dependence of expensive imported ingredients, European-style full table service, exorbitant salaries for the chefs, and open up a restaurant in a block along Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10 with an aim to serve heartland locals good food at heartland prices. The results are incredible. PocoLoco offers superb, authentic Italian dishes like Sicilian-style tagliolini with sea urchin, spaghetti al nero de seppia made with the ink of the cuttlefish, and the chef’s special of slow-roasted pork belly with a white wine and honey sauce. Providing an alternative to the glut of zi char restaurants in the area, PocoLoco is affordable Italian that doesn’t skimp on quality.
