Fico

Gotta make a reservation 1 month in advance if you’re looking for a dinner slot. Lunch slots are much easier to get.

The view is really nice as it’s right by the beach, and it’s a single building along east coast park. Alfresco dining.

The pork was awesome, pasta and octopus was good too. A bit on the pricey end, but good for a special occasion

Desserts ($15/2, +$7 for more)
𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐠𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨 (4⭐️) - Always up for unique savory-type desserts so this impressed with the creamy cheese-based gelato paired with tangy strawberry tomato jam and herby olive oil.

𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐚 (3.5⭐️) - Juicy fresh figs with hazelnut frangipane in a crisp tart.

𝐒𝐚𝐧 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐳𝐚𝐧𝐨 𝐓𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐅𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐚 (4⭐️; $23) - Vegetarian focaccia-pizza that was straightforward comfort food. The focacina was airy and light with a crisp exterior. Topped with fresh tomatoes, creamy mozzarella, finished with fresh basil and herbs.

The shell of the Cannoli was light, airy and incredibly crispy, and piped with a creamy ricotta cheese filling. A delicate dessert, the Cannoli was sweet, slightly zesty and nutty with the crunch from the pistachios. The Soufflé Tart with 70% dark chocolate was our next pick. Compared to usual tarts, the souffle tart had a mellow and airy mousse that was chocolatey rich and set on a crunchy sable base.

The 9" focaccina is a cross between focaccia and pizza. Topped with fresh tomatoes, mozzerella di bufala, basil leaves and extra virgin olive oil, the San Marzano Tomatoes was a burst of fresh flavours. The dough of the focaccia was light and airy yet held a firm and crispy texture like pizza.

Dessert arrived in style on a cute dessert trolley. Expect a small selection of bakes stocked fresh daily, where Choice Of Two is at $14 while it is an additional $5 for every third dessert. Rich and decadent, the 70% dark chocolate Souffle Tart was a deliciously foolproof delicious option. The added touch of sea salt to the bittersweet combo was a chef’s kiss too. The Zeppole (deep fried dough ball) while tasty, paled a little in comparison as it tasted kinda like a regular cream puff but I did like the sweet amarena cherries embellished on top with the smooth pastry cream.
