The Absolute Best Dishes We Ate at New Restaurants in 2025 | Bon Appétit

"I awarded Recoveco for its desserts program: the fig leaf and cucumber dessert is a work of art, a towering juniper-berry meringue tube that encases a column of seasonal ice cream and sorbet and props up a disk of granita. On my visit the tower contained fig leaf and cucumber, though the fillings change seasonally (fig leaf and starfruit or pineapple are possibilities), and following the server’s instruction to slice through the middle reveals a vibrant, refreshing exploration of flavor, texture, and temperature." - ByThe Bon Appétit Staff
