once upon a time at otto ristorante, woolloomooloo

Recommended by a coworker for their vegan menu, and that’s how we found ourselves at Otto Ristorante in Woolloomooloo on Sunday afternoon.

It was a beautiful day, and one of the great features of this place is that you can dine outside, by the waterfront, but still sheltered. You get a Swiss guy with an accordion, playing jazz pieces in French. It was absolutely divine!

Otto Ristorante is a fine dining Italian restaurant with a Czech chef. The food is, therefore, modern Italian.

Here’s what we had at Otto:

Olives and dips with baby organic vegetables, breadsticks and toasted bread slices.

Zucchini flowers filled with cashew nut cheese and caponata (above)

Saffron linguine, cherry tomatoes, globe artichokes and basil (above)

Aged Acquerello risotto, peas and snow peas (above)

Desserts
Citrus curd meringue tart, limoncello, verjus sorbet (below):

Dark chocolate mousse, tonka bean, wattleseed & caramel ice cream (below):
