5/5 For the Love of F. 6 months ago on Google • 152 reviews
Originally
an
Italian
deli,
Little
Black
Pig
&
Sons
was
transformed
into
an
Italian
restaurant
by
chef/owner
David
Lakhi.
Their
menu
changes
fortnightly,
with
a
new
menu
released
every
2nd
Wednesday.
You
can
choose
to
dine
from
their
A
La
Carte
menu,
or
their
5-course
tasting
menu
for
$120pp.
They
only
use
local,
sustainable
produce
and
implement
nose-to-tail
cooking
throughout
their
dishes.
We
started
off
with
fresh
oysters
with
a
tangy
apple
vinaigrette
to
cut
through
the
creaminess,
and
followed
by
tartlets
which
were
very
fresh
and
light
making
them
so
easy
to
eat.
The
pear
and
caviar
added
sweetness
and
saltiness
with
a
satisfying
crunch
of
the
tartlet
shell.
The
finely
chopped
veal
was
accompanied
by
truffle
butter
which
wasn’t
overpowering
-
it
was
a
balance
of
creamy
aioli
and
the
umami
of
truffle.
Again,
could
eat
many
more
of
these
easily!
Both
pastas
were
incredible
-
the
pork
sausage
ragù
was
saucy,
rich,
generous
in
portion
and
deep
in
flavour.
It
was
perfect
to
soak
the
focaccia
in.
The
duck
agnolotti
was
divine.
The
duck
filling
was
incredibly
tender
and
rich
in
the
burnt
butter
and
sage
flavour
but
was
so
well-balanced.
The
portion
of
this
pasta
seemed
small
but
after
the
richness
of
flavour
and
the
additional
sides,
it
was
the
perfect
amount.
The
broccolini
was
great,
tender
and
a
good
portion
again.
The
tiramisu
was
delicious
-
a
little
different
to
others
I’ve
had,
but
nonetheless
we
wiped
the
plate
clean.
The
sponge
was
soft
but
not
too
wet,
the
cream
was
nutty
from
the
hazelnut
liqueur.
What
a
fantastic
experience
-
the
food
was
outstanding
and
the
service
was
excellent
throughout.
They
run
like
a
well-oiled
machine,
even
on
a
busy
night.
It
may
have
been
my
first
visit
but
it
won’t
be
my
last!
