5 /5 Samantha Kupie: What an amazing find at the Lygon Street market on Sunday. We hadn’t eaten breakfast, but had a dinner reservation in the evening so we wanted something filling enough to get us through to the evening but on the smaller side. Frasta delivered x 100!
The branding and customer service made an awesome first impression. I ordered the Calabrian-inspired option and my partner chose the carbonara option. I had mine in the standard presentation, my partner wanted his with the toppings on the side. Both were presented so beautifully, with a bit of salad and with an undeniable amount of love and care. It was obvious that the chef was passionate about his art!
The flavours and textures were 10 out of 10. The inside was juicy and full of flavour, while the crust was crisp and crunchy perfection. What also impressed me was how non-greasy this was for a deep fried food. Honestly, fried pasta wouldn’t be my go-to choice ordinarily, but I would have this again and again!
Despite feeling a bit full, we had to finish it off with a couple of Dennis’s house made cannoli. They were some of the best I have eaten in the longest time (and I have tried a few!). The matcha flavour was spot on, but I have to say that the ricotta and candied orange was absolutely wonderful. The ricotta was smooth and had just the right amount of orange flavour, while the shell was crisp and flaky and easy enough to bite into.
This was the most surprising and pleasant food surprise I’ve had in ages. We wish Dennis so much success with Frasta, an amazing independent business that you absolutely have to try!! 5 stars all the way!!
