Embark on Culinary Journey to Italy paired with finest selections of wines
September 2024, New Delhi: AnnaMaya, the modern food hall at Andaz Delhi, invites you on a one-of-a-kind culinary journey to Italy with its month-long five-course Italian set menu, thoughtfully curated by their Italian Executive Chef, Matteo Fracalossi, in collaboration with Fishing Cat. Running throughout the month of September, this indulgent dining experience brings the authentic flavours of Italy to the table, with a menu designed to enchant both vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike. Each dish is masterfully paired with the finest Italian wines, offering guests a harmonious fusion of elegant cuisine and world-class wines that capture the essence of Italy's rich culinary tradition.
Non-vegetarians can savour exquisite dishes such as the perfectly Pan-Seared Hokkaido Scallop served in a rich Porcini Consommé. This delicate seafood starter is accompanied by Fishing Cat Pinot Grigio, a light and crisp Italian white wine with enticing aromas of citrus, and white flowers. Its refreshing palate of pear, lemon, and a subtle hint of minerality perfectly complements the scallop's subtle sweetness. For the main course, indulge in the succulent Roasted Lamb Loin, crusted with bitter cocoa for a sophisticated contrast of flavours. Paired with Fishing Cat Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva DOC, this intense ruby-red wine brings forth deep aromas of cherry, blackberry, and earthy notes with a smooth, balanced finish, enhancing the lamb’s rich and robust flavours.
Vegetarians are treated to a similarly decadent experience with the Ricotta Stuffed Zucchini Flower, enhanced by the creamy richness of burrata and a crisp pecorino garnish. This course is perfectly complemented by Fishing Cat Pecorino DOC d’Abruzzo, a delicate straw-yellow wine with tropical fruity aromas and floral notes, delivering a rich and balanced taste that enhances the vibrant and fresh flavours of the dish. Another highlight is the Pumpkin Stuffed Eggless Ravioli, whose savoury-sweet filling pairs effortlessly with Fishing Cat Cabernet Sauvignon wine’s tropical, citrus, and floral notes, elevating the dish to a sophisticated culinary delight.
To complete this exceptional dining experience, both menus end on a sweet note with a refreshing Yoghurt Mousse served alongside Strawberry Compression and Honeycomb Crumble. This dessert is accompanied by Fishing Cat Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo DOC, a wine with refreshing acidity and delightful hints of red berries, which enhances the bright flavours of the desert, creating the perfect finale to an unforgettable meal.
