Since its refurbishment, Customs House has been drawing in crowds with its chic restaurants Nueva Cuba, Kinki and Sabai. The latest to set up shop is Procacci, a new Italian restaurant - related to the famed century-old Procacci gourmet shop in Florence, Italy - established by a group of wine connoisseurs. Flanked by Marina Bay, the modern Tuscan-style restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating where you can soak in great water views (sunset is especially lovely).

Munch on golden brown calamari rings followed by fresh buffalo mozzarella salad. Or share the range of antipasto (cured meats and grilled vegetables). The starters are generally prepared with finesse - such as the fresh spanner crab stacked atop salmon and avocado, and crowned with a sprinkling of luxurious osetra caviar. This crowd-pleasing dish shares plate space with a bed of light cauliflower mousse and droplets of chilli oil for an extra spice kick.
For a classic Italian speciality, opt for the eggplant parmigiana with a touch of pesto on the side. The layers of thinly sliced eggplant and cheese are nicely baked and balanced with robust homemade tomato sauce.

Al dente pasta tossed with clams and plump mussels from Australia is worth slurping up before your mains arrive. Alternatively, capellini with spicy prawns is highly recommended. Aside from seafood, the signature black angus beef is simple yet superb. Do pair your meal with rare, high quality wines from the wine cellar and save room for the vanilla bean panna cotta with strawberries - the perfect sweet ending to your Tuscan dining experience.
