The Best Vegetarian Restaurant
20 Apr 2013The colorful salad garden, Principessa ($18) has an eclectic mix of roasted pumpkin, avocado, asparagus, tomato, french beans and boccocini, all mingled in a bed of mixed lettuces and dressed in a light balsamic vinaigrette that was subtle and unassuming.

The Haloumi ($18) which is usually made from a mixture of goat's milk and sheep's milk was nicely pan fried and served on a bed of salad greens, roasted capsicum, lentil, cucumber and mint salad. Due to its high melting point, the haloumi is ideal to be served pan fried or grilled giving it a nice texture and alternate way to enjoy cheese.
The Mezze Platter ($22/$30) reminds me of a similar dish I had at Blu Kouzina. The Middle Eastern platter served with Falafal balls and Pita Bread comes with Hummus Chick Pea, Aromatic Pumpkin and Carrot, Eggplant Baba Ganoush and Yogurt Tzatziki dips. My favourite is the pumpkin and carrot dip.
The Magic Mushroom ($18) which is baked portobello mushroom with ricotta cheese, spinach, pesto, topped with a tomato basil sauce and mozzarella was simply magical. The medley of rich flavours with the earthy mushroom magically sent the mouth blooming with wonderful flavours. I will definitely go back for this.
This is another must try dish at Original Sin. The Bosco Misto ($26) is like 2 beef patties stacked on top of each other but this is the vegetarian version made of spinach, feta and tofu coated with crushed almonds and sesame seeds, asparagus and a button mushroom plum sauce. Being a meat lover, I was actually very satisfied and content. I didn't feel I missed out any meat.
By now I am already very impressed with the creativity of Chef Marisa Bertocchi. She definitely has bring vegetarian food to a new level. Cooked to perfection, the Porcini ($26) was exquisitely executed. The creamy white wine sauce also married the pasta beautifully, bringing the whole dish together.
Original Sin not only serves delish starters and mains, they also have a decent selection of desserts. I tried the Chocolate Brownie, Apple Crumble, Tiramisu and Hazelnut Chocolate Cake. All desserts are priced at $10 and were pretty good. My favourite was the tiramisu and hazelnut chocolate cake.
Being able to stand tall for the past 14 years, Original Sin has tapped on a niche segment of the market and brings vegetarian to a whole new level with its creativity. Vegetarian food is no more boring and even better than many non vegetarian food. Price can be on the high side but you are paying for the quality.

Nice ambience
06 Sep 2012The tiramisu was so so. A small bottle of Tiger Beer cost $12. A glass of white wine cost $16, Merlot $12. Bread was $4 for a small basket.
Service was ok. Our friends liked the food. The place is located at a quiet area with nice ambience. Otherwise it is quite expensive to eat here.

Who Needs Meat?!?!
18 Aug 2012First of all, I frequent there at least once a week. Why? Sometimes it feels healthy to have a vegetarian meal once in awhile right? Some of you might not agree... especially all those meat eaters out there. But this place serves vegetarian food unlike any other, no raw chopped up veg, no mock tofu meat!!! It's like real food just without the meat, and trust me, after having a meal there, you won't be craving for supper afterwards.
My usual would be the magic mushroom for appetizer, and pasta or pizza for mains.
The mushroom, which is huge portobello mushroom, with ricotta cheese, tomato sauce, basil, mozzarella etc... sounds too cheesy for an appetizer? Who cares!! it's awesome!!! Perfectly cooked, tender juicy mushroom! A MUST TRY DISH, I SWEAR BY IT. Only if they can make it as a main =)
The pasta is really good, somehow it gives me the homemade feel, just like how an italian grandma would make it! Pesto pasta is the one I would reckon. You surely can't go wrong with that, al dente pasta coated with light cream sauce. It is something refreshing and healthy and you'll won't feel guilty after having a big plate of pasta.
The pizza is yummy, love the generous amount of toppings, thin crust pizza baked to perfection. Melting stringy cheese, fresh marinated veg~~ truly something special. Good for sharing with a bunch of friends over beer or wine.
Oh yeah, the wine list is huge!!! I am quite sure there is a wine for anyone.
Well... with that kind of food, who needs meat?
