Betcha never expected to read “ladies who lunch” and “office takeout” in the same sentence, but they’ll be meshing just fine at Fig & Olive’s massive new Midtown outpost, which is pulling for both the Bergdorf and the briefcase sets. F&O’s signature olive-oil-intensive menu offerings are here, along with a few welcome perks: prepacked “takeaway” items like panini and salads; and a grill and rotisserie. “The rotisserie—I’m going to be quite blunt—that’s the only way to eat chicken,” quips owner Laurent Halasz, in his charming French accent. “[Midtown workers] now have a healthy and flavorful alternative.” The Mougins-raised restaurateur is also offering new dishes inspired by his mother’s southern French recipes, including a striped bass en papillote with fennel, fresh herbs and—take a wild guess—olive oil.
