We can’t think of a more decadent place to lunch on a Saturday afternoon than Michelin Star Italian restaurant, Tosca, located in the luxurious Ritz-Carlton. Two-star Michelin Chef Pino Lavarra has introduced a special menu, which will change monthly, to take their discerning diners on a delicate wine tour of his home, Italy. The journey begins this March with Abruzzo and Marche as the first two regions and a delicious four course menu to pair with the carefully chosen wines. We loved the flavour and texture combinations in our starter course of Veal, Cauliflower and Ascolana olive fritters, and to follow was a delightfully rich and creamy baked pasta dish stuffed with veal and lightly covered in bechamel suace. For the main course there is a choice of a fresh and meaty scorpion fish Anconetana style, or a tender, flavourul guinea fowl with potacchio sauce, and to end the lunch came a decandant Alchermes and pastry cream dessert. Each wine pairing was unique in flavour and character, and we loved hearing about it’s origins and history from Tosca’s knowledgeable sommelier. An ideal way to spend a sophisticated and indulgent Saturday lunch and we can’t wait to hear about next month’s Italian wine journey.
