Lonely Planet review for Falai
A small and narrow storefront shaped by white tile, open kitchen and clean lines; it didn’t take long for this LES newcomer to attract legions of stylish fans. Iacopo Falai, a former high-end pastry chef, is behind the place, which presents swoon-inducing plates of pasta (cocoa-flavored papardelle, squid ink strands topped with lobster), meats (tender steak medallions, fennel-flavored pork) and seafood (codfish stew). And desserts, of course, are killer. Don’t miss the passion fruit soufflé.
