Forget store-bought cheese; get yours at The Mast’ of Mozzarella & CO.!

Cheese fans rejoice! You can now tuck into some of the freshest cheese in town at The Mast’ of Mozzarella & CO., one of the new eateries in Tanjong Pagar.

Cheese fans rejoice! You can now tuck into some of the freshest cheese in town at The Mast’ of Mozzarella & CO., the newest addition to the slew of eateries in Tanjong Pagar.

Originally from Rome, The Mast’ of Mozzarella offers freshly-made cheeses and delicious Italian platters at their first Southeast Asian outlet that acts as a delicatessen, osteria, and bar, all in one place. It’s also the only osteria that boasts a laboratory-like facility that produces mozzarella, burrata, and stracciatella daily on site!

Passersby in the area can easily check out the cheese-making process that’s open for everyone to see through the glass windows but if you’re curious, here’s a little sneak peek to satisfy your cheesy cravings:

First, the mozzarella maestros add a controlled amount of buffalo milk imported from Italy, rennet, and salt to the churner.

Fun fact: The Mast’ only uses high-quality milk imported straight from the osteria’s very own buffalo farm in Valle dei Templi in Paestum, Southern Italy, so you know you’re getting the real deal.

It takes roughly 5 to 10 minutes to churn the mozzarella; thereafter, the cheese is ready to be formed into balls! The rollers will then press out the mozzarella balls according to the moulds attached to the machine.

The Mast’ makes mozzarella in a variety of sizes, and they’re made twice daily. If this isn’t fresh, we don’t know what is!

The cheeses can also be shaped and hand-stretched; one of the more popular and common ways to do it is to braid them.

You can even make them into tiny braids too! Come on – how cute is that!?

The best part about The Mast’ is that you get to experience these dairy delights right at the osteria; with cheeses so fresh, it’s a tough one to beat!

   

Hot Off the Brick: Salmone Scozzese e Zucchine

One of the many ways to enjoy the freshly made mozzarella is through the toasty and lip-smacking pinse, which are roman flat breads crowned with a variety of toppings that tickle your fancy.

We recommend the Salmon Pinse, where buffalo mozzarella are torn and adorned alongside smoked salmon and zucchini on a well-baked flatbread. This baby feeds two easily, so grab a friend and share the love!

   

Fresher than Fresh: Tris di Bufala

If your love for mozzarella runs deep, the perfect dish to order is the Tris di Bufala. Enjoy a selection of burrata, mozzarella, and special burrata that come served on schiacciata bread with mixed salads. The brightness of the balsamic vinegar adds tartness to the mellow, pillowy mozzarella, giving them a touch of excitement.

But don’t just take our word for it; visit The Mast’ of Mozzarella & Co. and enjoy the best of Italian cheese today!
