Under Construction: Figa

figa2
Here’s a look inside the construction site for Figa at 249 Congress Street. A bar will be going in on the left side and a banquet along the right. The kitchen will occupy the back end of the space. Figa is the creation of Chef/Owner Lee Farington. According to the restaurant’s website, Farrington is a 1998 graduate of the French Culinary Institute in Manhattan and worked at a number of restaurants in NYC before moving to Portland where she has cooked at Fore Street and Uffa.

  1. My wife and I moved to Portland from Park Slope 3 years ago, and Al Di La was one of our absolute favorites when we lived there. Small and unassuming, perfectly prepared central italian. Pretty excited about seeing what happens here.
