What was once a home decor store in Sea Cliff, Restoration Oak, was transformed into a dessert and coffee shop collaboration in 2023 — Dessertino and The Crafty Spoon. This week, the two brands have evolved into Dolcino Caffé, a similar idea with the addition of savory toasts and breakfast sandwiches. Plus, a second location opened in Farmingdale off Hempstead Turnpike. It was Aseem Malik’s sister, a baker, who originally began working with The Crafty Spoon. A data scientist by day, Malik decided to invest in the education of coffee and dessert, ultimately surprising himself when he realized he shared his sister’s passion for the food space. The Bay Shore resident ultimately got his full barista certificate, furthering the budding brand’s coffee legacy with the original owners. More at the link in bio.
