The long-awaited Golden Specials festival has arrived , a celebration of Italian haute cuisine that honors one of the most sought-after and exclusive ingredients: gold. This unique event is designed to offer an unparalleled culinary experience, where each dish and drink in collaboration with Moët Hennessy, are made with the highest quality ingredients and a touch of elegance that only Nicoletta can provide.
A Culinary Journey of Gold
My Capelacci Ravioli with Ragù and Yellow Pesto is a true masterpiece. This dish, filled with red wine braised beef, is topped with a soft butter and a yellow pesto of tomatoes confit with peppers. Fresh basil and a delicate gold leaf finish this creation.
To complement this dish, we recommend the Gilded Nectar , a drink that combines Glenmorangie Nectar d’Or® with blackcurrant liqueur, lime juice, cinnamon syrup and raspberry sprinkled with edible gold. The complexity of this drink enhances the intense flavours of the ravioli, creating a perfect harmony.
Truffled Ricotta and Beetroot
Another highlight is our Truffled Ricotta and Beetroot . The beetroot roasted in a wood-fired oven, wrapped in gold leaf, is served on a creamy ricotta cheese with truffle, accompanied by pumpkin puree, prosciutto, lemon zest and candied pine nuts. This combination of ingredients creates a symphony of textures and flavors that will delight your palate.
For an ideal pairing, we suggest the Volcanic Gold , a cocktail with Volcán XA® Tequila, agave honey, pineapple juice, lime juice, edible gold dust and dehydrated pineapple. The freshness and tropical touch of this drink perfectly complement the richness of the dish.
Sweet and Sophisticated
For dessert, we offer you the Golden Limoncello Cheesecake , a creation that combines a savarin with limoncello, natural yellow lemon yogurt and crumble, all covered with white chocolate and gold dust. This dessert is not only visually stunning, but also offers a sweet and sophisticated ending to your gastronomic experience.
Pair this dessert with the Golden Royale , a drink that combines Ron Eminente 7yo® with a mix of three milks, chocolate and Ferrero Rocher®. This pairing is the perfect ending to a memorable evening.
