"It's easy to see yourself spending many Saturday mornings eating olive oil and labneh pancakes under Elektra’s patio umbrellas while overlooking the pool deck. Although you might prefer to take up residency in a pool cabana at this Mediterranean restaurant in O4W’s new Forth hotel. For breakfast, Elektra stuffs croissants with things like orange cream and cherry filling, and their tangy shakshuka gets some interesting meatiness and warmth from roasted eggplant. So far we’ve only tried the daytime menu (they do dinner, too, so stay tuned), but we recommend coming here for a leisurely morning meal with colleagues or a chill weekend brunch with friends." - nina reeder, juli horsford, jacinta howard
