'Nyak' Cognac Filled Figs at Fancy Plants Kitchen — Jono's Review (Oct 10, 2022)

Our five-course dinner started off with a bang - these cognac-soaked figs with shiso leaf were to die for!

Initially we tried it with just the fig and it was savory-sweet with some extra complexity from the cognac. Upon her return to the table, the server recommended that we eat the leaf with the fig because it was edible.

The shiso leaf contributed a deep, complex flavor that was equal parts herbaceous and somewhat minty. It perfectly balanced out the sweet and savory fig.
