Kingston Food Exploration | Unmissable Creamy Pasta 🥰

This week’s guest on the Kingston Food Exploration column is Atomica Kitchen / Cocktails— a spot I had to book three times before finally getting a table 🍾️! Pro tip: Always make a phone reservation in advance. Walking in without one? You’ll almost certainly be turned away 😢. [FETTUCCINE] White wine crema, braised chicken, smoked bacon, cremini mushrooms, arugula, parmesan. $23.00 Mention Atomica, and this Fettuccine comes to mind immediately. It’s the pasta that everyone orders 🧀️—so good, I’d happily book a week in advance just for a bowl of it. Rich, creamy, and packed with savory flavors from the chicken and bacon—absolute perfection. [ATOMICA] Bomba tomato, mozzarella, spicy genoa salami, cremini mushrooms, pepperoncini. $19.00 The pizza sharing the restaurant’s name is… fine. Not amazing, not bad.

[PIRI PIRI SHRIMP] Garlic, jalapeños, scallions, piri piri sauce, toasted focaccia. $17.00 Drizzle with lemon for a zesty, spicy kick 🍋. The bread + shrimp + sauce combo works so well—definitely worth trying. Just note: the shrimp portion is small, and the sauce is a bit oily. [NUTELLA TIRAMISU] Espresso-dipped lady fingers, Nutella whipped cream, frangelico mascarpone. $8.00 In a town like Kingston, which can feel like a dessert desert 🍮, you can’t skip the tiramisu here! It’s affordable and delicious—sweet, rich, and with that perfect coffee-nutella balance 😋. 📍 71 Brock St, Kingston, ON K7L 2Z9 ☎️ 613-530-2118 🗓 Hours: Thu: 12pm – 9pm Fri-Sat: 12pm – 10pm Sun-Wed: 3pm – 9pm #KingstonFood #CanadianLife #DailyFoodie #MyFoodDiary #FoodExploration #WeekendExploration #DateNightRestaurants
