Finding an authentic Italian restaurant that can offer gluten-free option and understands the strict protocols needed to prevent cross-contamination can feel like searching for a golden unicorn.

Enter Acqua e Farina, an Italian gem with two locations in Singapore. If you have been dreaming of a safe, delicious gluten-free pizza, you must visit their Keong Saik Road location.

Here is everything you need to know about the gluten-free options at Acqua e Farina:

Perfectly Prepared Pasta

If you are in the mood for pasta, you can rest easy knowing the kitchen follows excellent safety protocols. To avoid gluten particles in boiling water or on equipment, their gluten-free pasta is cooked in separate water using a dedicated strainer and dedicated utensils.

All of their sauces can be made gluten-free, and on certain days, they even have fresh gluten-free pasta available.

Celiac-Safe Gluten-Free Pizza

Acqua e Farina goes above and beyond to prevent cross-contamination by using a separate pizza oven dedicated exclusively to gluten-free pizzas. They use Caputo Gluten-Free Pizza Flour for their crusts. All pizza toppings are gluten-free.

Important: The restaurant only makes two gluten-free pizza crusts each day. If you want a gluten-free pizza, you absolutely must order it in advance when making your reservation!

Ingredient Safety: Caputo Gluten-Free flour contains certified gluten-free wheat starch. While this is perfectly safe for those with celiac disease, you should avoid it if you have a wheat allergy.

Decadent Desserts

No disappointing fruit platter here! Acqua e Farina offers a phenomenal dessert flight that includes a mini crème brûlée, a mini panna cotta, and homemade gelato.
