When
we
arrived,
we
were
seated
and
then
greeted
by
Dominic,
who
made
us
feel
as
though
we
more
than
just
customers,
we
truly
felt
like
we
were
family
in
his
home.
After
a
brief
discussion
about
the
menu
and
a
little
bit
of
family
history,
we
asked
for
a
suggestion
for
the
first
course
and
accepted
the
offer
to
try
the
Polpette,
Porcini
Mushroom
Arrancini
and
the
Signature
Arrancini.
When
the
amazingly
creative
parcels
arrived
at
our
table
we
were
in
awe
of
each
of
the
intensely
unique
flavours
represented.
The
mains
arrived
perfectly
timed
and
once
again
we
were
astounded
by
the
depth
and
complexity
of
the
flavours.
The
six
hours
that
the
lamb
shanks
cooked
were
well
spent
as
the
slow
cooking
created
a
beautifully
flavoured
harmony
like
a
perfectly
written
and
played
concerto.
In
unison,
our
taste
buds
sang
the
praises
of
the
perfect
balance
of
the
herbs
and
red
wine’s
essence.
To
say
that
the
experience
was
ethereal,
would
be
grossly
understated.
We
selected
the
Gamberi
as
our
second
main
that
we
would
share.
The
King
Prawns
were
incredibly
fresh
and
the
cherry
tomato
sugo
was
intense
yet
perfectly
balanced.
With
just
a
hint
of
chilli,
it
created
an
added
warmth
that
helped
to
bring
attention
to
the
other
gently
rounded
flavours.
Smooth
and
robust
coffee
as
well
as
an
incredible
sticky
date
pudding
punctuated
the
meal’s
perfection.
As
we
were
departing,
Leanne,
made
sure
our
visit
was
perfect
and
spoke
glowingly
of
how
they
deeply
live
and
breath
in
the
community
of
East
Gosford.
To
us,
this
speaks
volumes
of
the
character
of
Fedele’s,
its
owners
and
how
they
aren’t
just
‘in’
the
community,
these
wonderful
people
are
part
of
East
Gosford,
a
truly
integral
part
of
East
Gosford.
Don’t
listen
to
anyone
who
says
otherwise,
Fedele’s
in
East
Gosford
is
an
exceptional
family
operated
restaurant
whose
menu
is
authentically
Italian,
perfectly
executed
food
as
well
as
service
and
whose
team
obviously
loves
what
they
do.
Dominic
and
Leanne
deserve
our
support
and
I
assure
you,
we
be
visiting
Fedele’s
again.
